Yes, and hugely patronising it sounded too.
You quite often hear the presenter say well done to the weather at the end of Reporting Scotland, not necessarily patronising... they could have been running out of time or had a few problems that we aren't necessarily privy too? But I do see where you're coming from.

It's not so much what was said, as how it was said.

I note how the even presenters seem to be unable to decide whether or not the bulletin is called "
BBC News
", "
BBC News at Six
", "
The BBC News at Six O'Clock
", "
The BBC Six O'Clock News
", "
The Six O'Clock News
", "
The News at Six
", or, to be honest, "
6 BBC News
".

As much as I'd love to re-rant about this topic, it's been done to death since April.

It sounded strange when I flicked over to BBC One at 10 o'clock the other day to hear Fiona Bruce saying "an investigation by News at Ten".

Makes it sound like they were talking about an investigation that ITN did and the BBC are just reporting on

The screens in N6 are in serious need of repair again. This is just appalling:

Yea it doesn't look good does it?! Noticed a similar thing with the other side of the studio during the sport. I've said it before, and many may disagree, but N6 is in a bit of a state. I honestly think these Barco screens were a bit of a mistake (I know most people will probably defend them), but the only programme that looks good with these screens is Newsnight...maybe because it's got such a dark background and TC7 is in better quality as a whole.

I had a CRT screen at work, and when watching the weather on the six, I noticed a big pink spot on the top of the screen. Being a CRT screen i thought it was the tube, so kept trying to degauss the screen and it just wouldn't work. It was fine though when the weather finished. It was the sodding screens on the news itself. I really wish they'd sort it!

Okay, I won't disagree with you. If you can convince me you're right. But at the moment you have no chance of doing this because you haven't said how. I agree, some of the settings need to be changed on the screens, but apart from that, the studio/set is in no way "in a state" or "shabby" (as has been said before). And please, this time, respond.

I agree that the screens were a bit of a mistake. For the wide shots they're perfectly fine, but when they're not calibrated they really don't look that good, and on the weather especially (not including my previous post) they really don't look great. The lines are extremely visible and sometimes the picture is not seamless between screens. Whilst screens look better than CSO in real life, so a tour of a BBC studio would be more impressive than seeing a big green blanket in the ITV news studio, the ITV news studio looks much better on screen (in my opinion of course)
