The glare on the Barcos seems to be getting worse; all of the stood presentation on the Six had a red glare at the top, which hid some of the weather graphics. Some lovely camera angles tonight though.

In a piece about 3D TV coverage of Wimbledon, the one o'clock news had giant CGI tennis balls leaping out of the camera and bouncing off the desk.

It was even more tacky than when they had the studio lights flashing off and on during a piece about Strictly Come Dancing on the six.

Good grief. That's just unforgivable. And frightening. For some reason, a little bit frightening.

Probably ok for the news channel, which is more light hearted, but on the national news?

Imagine if ITV News had done similar, they'd never hear the end of it.

This one from the year after is not as frightening a bit better way to end the final bulletin on Christmas Eve http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7iXL96RI2U&NR=1
