It could simply be that the Sound Mixer accidentally put the wrong track on.

It could simply be that someone spilt coffee on the studio mixer, quickly called World News, and said:

Sound desk out of operation - routing to you for the sound source at the TOTH!!!

...then again you never know, we could both be clutching at loose ends. (Who's have thought it?!?)

Had that happened then you would hear the wooshes out of sync and much louder as they are on the World News countdown. It's a weird anomaly. But one I won't be complaining to the BBC about. Odd time to happen though, you'd expect it perhaps one side or the other of the 5 o' clock as that's controlled from C's gallery (as evidenced by the fact that the headline thunderclaps are World's stringless version) but A isn't really known to be World News studio. At least not for live broadcasts.

Those NC titles which don't have the newsroom swooping shot don't look any better, the more you watch them do they. It's the mixture of the music/visuals not being in sync and the really long hold at the end of the visuals while the music catches up.

These titles get used, perhaps, once or maybe twice a month? Does it really matter?

It doesn't matter in the way of the world but in TV Presentation Terms the fact that it is only one or twice a month is often when there is a major story breaking so when the News Channels viewership is at it's highest or when they are simulcasting a breaking news story on BBC One or Two. So it looks a tad poor that they can't get the Video and Audio Synced. They either could redub the video or why not simply just play the overnight titles.

Again, the world news theme tune countdown was before the ten this evening! I wonder why?

I'm suspecting that a 90 second Night countdown was botched together quite quickly and the wrong music was put onto it. If you watch the 70 second example up the thread you'll hear that the strings aren't quite right either, around the time Lyse is on screen.
This is how it should sound.

Now there are no Barco gaps and twitchy tickers to complain about, he needs something else to harp on about.

To be honest, I don't see everyone's problem with it - the titles aren't out of sync at all.

You're absolutely right. They're not out of sync at all.

So will it be the World countdown before the 10 again tonight I wonder...

Yes.

Despite the Ten being delayed due to extra time in the Confederations Cup Football on BBC One.

Gavin Grey still in Studio A for now.

Full 60 second mashup with NC montage and World music again!

Ooh, approaching half past and it doesn't look like we'll be seeing the News at 10 start on BBC One - what will happen to the Papers? Gavin Grey has just handed to the Sport centre for a summary as the BBC News at 10 has been 'delayed.' However, he did introduce the original bulletin as 'the BBC News at 10', so maybe the NC will opt out?

Oh, and the clock and ticker have all disappeared.
