N5 doesn't exists.


N5 did exist, but not any more.

N5 was the studio where the BBC World Service Television's Arabic service came from. When it closed, it became a store room, then a computer room for News Online, then reopened as as studio again for News Interacitve. N5 was where Talking Point (now called Have Your Say) came from. It also did daily chat forums, and other bits n pieces.

N5 closed about a year ago as part of budget cuts. Have Your Say now comes from N6.

BBC Breakfast

What happens on Thursday then?


Breakfast will be broadcast on BBC2, so sub-opts on analogue will not be available I presume (for example, Look North Hull viewers will get Look North Leeds). Also, the regional newsteams in England will not be available on digital.

Why the BBC think the Commowealth games should deserve a place on BBC1 and cock up the regular schedule, being as though all Winter Olympic coverage was shown on BBC2, god knows. But that's not for here.


I think GMTV might have a few more viewers during this period, if this is correct, because they can broadcast regional news, on the channel they're supposed to be on!


Don't be so silly. In the real world, noone actually gives a fcuk about regional news, and viewing figures won't be affected at all.

The Commonwealth Games come round once every 4 years, so it's hardly a big deal to shift a programme that's on EVERY DAY off to another channel for a bit.

It's only fanatics on this board who are moaning about regional news not being on, and actually you don't even care about it; you're just pontificating to make yourselves look good.

I, for one, would be quite pleased not to see the cringingly awful BBC local news in the morning...not that I watch Breakfast, cause it's shhit..

BBC News 24

TICKER: better than before. Looks very similar to Channel 4 News straps.

THINNER FONT: lacks impact.

TOWER: looks bloody stupid.

OVERALL: I can see what they're trying to do, but the whole things just looks messy now. Too many different fonts on the screen, and the tower looks daft.

Ok so if the TOG programmers can't/won't make changes to the titles, then why were the titles on BBC World changed in the first place?
I can't see News 24 using these VT titles on a permanent basis - they'll probably just go back to normal TOG titles or perhaps they'll have incorporated the RTS thing into the TOG titles by tomorrow morning.


How is that possible, if the programmers no longer work there, I tell you the BBC have problems!


If you fanatics stopped to think for a minute, perhaps you'd realise that perhaps the people who can programme the TOG are an outside company, who simply might not have been available on the day to change something.

TOG is not a BBC built tool, it's been bought in.

Would, for example, Tinpot FM in Nowhere Land have their own programmer sittin on his arse waiting for their off-the-shelf playout system to fall over? No.

And if the Beeb DID have someone sitting on their arse doing the same, you'd all accuse them of wasting license fee money.

Again, damned if they do...

BBC News Thread

The 1/6/10 look a bloody mess at the moment.

Why on earth didn't they make the red BBC NEWS box the same size as the N24 tower?

Newsnight Set - Suggestions Wanted

It's all very vell Newsnight asking for ideas, but they're only going to have limited influence on the final design of TC7, which will be pretty much fixed, so that every programme using the studio will have the same set.

The lighting, (via LEDs) and titles/graphics are where they can be diffferent.

I noticed last night that the entire studio was empty except the newsreader.

The newsroom is usually quite busy and full from 6am-11pm i guess. I would assume that they use lesser amounts of staff at night and so they use a differnt area to work in
They mostly seem to be off to the right hand side of the newswall.

I'm told that if someone's in shot in the newsroom, it's usually because they're just off the phone with their gran/dad/fish, and someone's looking out for them on air.


I've noticed on alot of the pans that people in the newsroom would get up and move more towards the set so they can get to be in the shot, In the old set on BBC World for The World Today I used to noticed people in the backround stand up and start to walk pointlessly to the other side of the newsroom to be in the shots.


Do you honestly think that people who work in a 24 hour newsroom, where they could be in shot anywhere they go, give a **** about calling their mates to show them they're on TV.

Re: UTV - did they change the astons. I know they used to use a doctored version of the ITV News astons (though I don't know if they were still using these!)


P.S. Anyone know where Felicity has got too? She's not been seen since Christmas!


Sacked hopefully.


When you leave school and get a job, and rise up through your profession, perhaps making it big one day, i'm gonna be the first one to rub my hands and gloat non stop when you lose your job, or get sacked, or whatever.

You're a nasty, pathetic fool.

I suppose you think it's funny to write what you did. But then you're probably a thick chav who will sponge off the state for the rest of your life, and never do a hard days work.

Grow up.

And Fiona Bruce's breasts? Really, SO WHAT if someone decides that Fiona Bruce's tits are nice? It doesn't affect the running of the forums until the internet police like you come along and spoil their fun.
!


I'd stop now if I were you.

The Fiona Bruce post urger people to look at her tits to see if she was pregnant again. My response to that was that the poster should not be so disgusting.

You say that I like to go round being the moderator...rubbish.


Forgive me for wading in but he wasn't referring to you Dog, but to Jaime.


Thanks. What a fool I feel.

But my points still stand about the moderation on this site.
