Looks great. Do we have a date for AJE relaunching?

I don't think it's relaunching, but a new look has been on the cards for many years. Their 10th anniversary is in 2 weeks so maybe,but I wouldn't hold my breath, I believe the technical refurb is still ongoing and overrunning


But I was under the impression that all AJ teams and studios were moving to a purpose-built premises and the AJE studio was to be within the studio with the large window?


Al Jazeera Arabic moved into a new facility yesterday, an extension of their old building.

Al Jazeera English is still situated in a seperate facility over the road - the glass studio, used by Al Jazeera Arabic for some of its non-news programmes is an extension of the AJE building. AJE have had rehearsals in that studio, as Kamahl Santamaria posted a picture from there (see below). So I assume that this studio IS shared, but I'm not sure when it'll be on-air.

I like the new Arabic set but I think the set in the Shard, London looks nicer.

Some images of the new NewsGrid programme that started today.

That programme looks quite nice. Nice and clean design and not too anti-septic (ala SkyNews)

That's very nice indeed. 8/10 from me looking at those images. Modern, contemporary and clean.

Only watched Newsgrid since yesterday and noticed they also have a soft area in the new studio for interviews. Love that there's no constant on screen graphics or ticker during the bulletin, except for the AJ logo.
