BBC Scotland's use of fonts are all over the place especially their " Live : XXX ", although interestingly when they went to Downing Street the correct font was used.

Does anyone know if BBC World News is simulcasting the BBC's coverage?

BBC NI played out the full title sequence when joining the national coverage (late)on BBC Two NI at 22:35 - only to crash in straight after.

Their own title sequence (for the NI coverage on BBC One NI) though similar in style, incorporated NI locations and used different music.

Yes it is, with its own ticker.

In Denmark, DR2 are showing the BBC's main programme, no dubbing or subtitles, but none of the BBC's lower thirds or location bugs either.

That's fine now but will be annoying when results are flashed on them as they come in.

BBC ONE NI's graphics are incredibly low quality, very jagged edges. I understand they may be broadcasting in SD from the normal news studio so no HD feed, but surely they could improve the graphics a bit. Looks very poor, even compared to the news graphics that presumably come from the same studio/playout.

Wales did the same.
