Easily my favourites this page. Don't know why but I just dig these. I like serious, classy, real sets. And for China, that is quite classy!

In Spain, Antena 3 Noticias relaunched last Tuesday, with new graphics, new music, a refreshed set (with a much smaller desk) and new presenter lineups for the 9pm weeknight edition and the weekend editions.

Note: As always, the dates refer to the year the newscast was recorded, and not (necessarily) the year when that particular look was launched.

Thanks for that. I hadn't taken a very good look at France 24's new look until now. The lower thirds are nice, though the 20h logo looks out of place, and the set is more boring. (Is it virtual too? I can't tell.)

It certainly looks as if it could be virtual, but as far as I know, all of it is real:

Here's another interesting through-the-years compilation -- RTL in the Netherlands from 1989 to the present day:

And back in the Netherlands, here's a 2014 promo for RTL Nieuws:

B92 in Serbia has unveiled a new set. (As you can see, the launch did not go without a few glitches -- and what were those silent walks at the beginning and before the live cross all about?):
