Hi there all,

Does anyone have any photos of the BBC News studio with the barco screens turned off? It would be interesting to see the studio in its authentic state, rather than its transmission state.

Hope its not asking too much!

I've got no photos, but I can describe it:
Dull.

The screens are black, the light strips at the top go white and it looks rather boring, also, when the desk lights are off it looks really boring. Also if the houselights are turned on it looks tacky.

There was some pre 2008 rebrand, leaked. Might be worth checking the starts of the BBC News threads.

This is TC7 in the dark - when the Barcos decided to stop working.

"No signal on the PC input"

BARCO screens are just computer projectors in a cube on their simplest level.
