New look now on the Breakfast website

Eventually, the design team settled on the sky above one of the BBC's own buildings beside Television Centre in London.

"We took 360 still photographs and then, using computer graphics, we've mixed them and put them on a loop," says Bill.

Those images are then projected onto a 90 foot wall in the new Breakfast studio.


New look on the website but they haven't changed the content. The profiles page still has Moira, Louisa, Suzanne and Mishal; all of whom won't be on the new-look set.

I noticed when they showed the presenters rehersing in the new set earlier Susanna Reid was behind the desk with Kate Silverton, a sure sign of her return.

Whats the addition to the clock all about? Just looks a bit wierd with a separate bar floating about, they neededn't have bothered with it, doesn't exactly match up with anything else. It wouldn't be missed.

Graphics not lining up on the BBC - never! Rolling Eyes But at least they've carried on the theme to their scenery this time! Not even the clouds line up!

When I first switched on and saw the orange and blue... the first thing I thought of was "Sainsbury's!"

It looks like the ITV logo!

I like it.

Be interesting to see how the Nationals look though. From the caps, it looks as if the 'logo' at the end of the titles uncurls and zooms into the presenter.

Interesting.

It looks dangerously like Sky's Sunrise (just for the sake of being thorough you can find an earlier post on another thread here).

Shame the font of 'Breakfast' is different from the one used on TV.

It's a nice set, good to see the presenters returning to a desk & sofa arrangement, as per the Jon Nicolson era! It will be good to see Susanna Reid make her reappearance on Friday.

Still don't like the fact that Breakfast let News 24 down on it's 'headlines every 15 minutes' promise. Nothing at 8.15am.
