Reminded me a bit of the John Sergeant piece from the doorstep of No 10 when Margaret Thatcher appeared behind him and started talking to the press... I can't find a clip sadly...
Of course it could just be that the tweet wasn't being entirely serious!
I suspect that either they backtimed or were just lucky

I don't like it. I know the media and politicians feed off each other, but that's a step too far.
I disagree really. It's not like the BBC were controlling the content of the speech, it was beneficial for Downing Street to co-ordinate with the BBC in order for the message to get out to the greatest amount of people possible.
No, granted, but the BBC are our national broadcaster, not our state broadcaster ?
Nothing wrong with No 10 telling the press that the PM will come out at 18:xx:xx hrs, but I'm uncomfortable
with the Beeb (or any other broadcaster) cueing him in.
That's ridiculous, it was merely done to ensure the prime ministers speech was seen live in full without missing the start of it.
The Beeb are more than capable of hitting a pre defined point in time, to carry an event, (although they've equally capable of screwing up too, the resignation of Entwhistle is a prime (ironic) example). Sorry
but I'm not comfortable with broadcasters dictating the exact timing of an event. It's the thin end of the
wedge IMHO.

The BBC could hit the time bang on, whether the Government could is an entirely different matter. I think you're looking into it far too closely as if there is some sinister intention.

They did it like that because it was being simulcast on BBC World News.
And they weren't the wrong titles, they're the new titles which don't show the newsroom.
I know they're the new titles for when they don't show the newsroom, but don't they change the title music slightly to fit the different titles?
Looks like they used the wrong title music into the 6 - it didn't fit at all. The way they closed the bulletin tonight worked much better for the news channel.

Well that would mean the titles would be in sync with the music, which is obviously not what the BBC is going for....
Why don't they just use the World titles? They're practically the same as those used since 2008.

They did use the World titles earlier on in the day, which is what confused me - they didn't have a box on them, either.
