Could well be placeholder images that will be replaced with live video feeds in the broadcast version. That picture screams "concept art".

The concept is called the "Ten O'Clock News". Like when they did the Nine O'Clock News from the election studio in years gone by, but an hour later.

If this is David Dimbleby's final Election Night as host - I am hoping he gets a good send off, with a bit of "Arthur" thrown in!

They look like virtual 'plasma/LCDs' supported on virtual frosted acrylic strips - a bit like the bases of the real DTL screens in the News Channel studio.

Looks quite crisp to me, with a strong nod to the W1 look, which would be fitting for the Ten (and the Election as a whole for that matter).

In the run-up to the 2010 election on 6th May, the Ten moved into TC1 on Monday 3rd May.

Are we to assume then, given the caps posted on Twitter, that the Ten will come from Elstree from this Monday?

It isn't about Dimbleby though - it's about hopefully giving another Dave a big send off.
