BBC Breakfast

It would seem they actually have TWO trees - there was just a side shot of the studio when Bill & Sian were talking to Simon and it showed both of the trees!

This happened last year too, but Simon was still in the stock exchange last Christmas wasn't he? Therefore you didn't see it as often.




Actually, looking at that picture again that was Christmas 08 (the orange lights gave it away).

Breakfast coming from N6 today, apparently because of technical problems in the usual studio. Susannah has said they are using it 'for now'.

I didn't know that they had a CGI tree.

I thought it was Saturday - wishful thinking. It will be interesting to see what happens after 8.30pm, I presume they'll stay on until 9.15am?

Ahh, problem fixed - they'll be running to their usual home at the next regional junction - 7.56.

If only it were that simple! It's going to be a rather tricky operation to get all our crew from one studio to another (at opposite ends of the building) in just the 3'15 regional opt... Cross fingers folks that we stay on-air!

Only Susanna there at 8am. Charlie must be running!

Could somebody please tell me who this is alongside Joanna Gosling is it Alistair Yates?.

Nope.



Michael Peschardt.


Edit: Got there first 'BBC World'

No, Daniel. It's Michael Peschardt. (or "The Pesch", as he is more commonly known). He used to be a BBC News Sports Presenter, then became a Sydney Correspondent, then occassional summertime fill-in on Breakfast and Radio 4, and now he runs his own production company.)
