Yes, much much better, far less tacky than sleigh bells and a santa running across the screen, that tree endboard was classy Smile

Indeed so, nowhere near as OTT as last year...

Not sure if anyone caught that but at the end of the BBC One bulletin just then, they accidently played the closing sting over Emily signing off, must have been a slip of the fingers on the audio desk!

Anyone else noticed how the backdrop in TC7 seems far less washed out this week, or is it just me imagining things?

No, I think you're right - just watched it online and the reds seem redder and the whites seem whiter - a lot brighter all in all. To me though, Breakfast's background has looked pretty washed out so far this week - not grey as such, just lacking a bit of colour.

Well the Barco projectors have all been replaced to be the same self-correcting ones that went into N8.
And the floor was painted over Christmas! Smile

Are they planning on updating those in N6 anytime soon? It can still look shocking at times!

Good job they didn't need TC7 over Christmas then, if they were to do that!

That is the plan - eventually!
It didn't go that well in TC7 - there were lots of technical problems! So it wasn't as simple as they first thought!

I think the 6 looks awful, though I thought that before this apparent refit.

Always has done. I'm not sure if it's because it's a shocking studio, or the way they use it. It looks ok on Newsnight. N6 looks far far superior.

It is noticeably brighter. A marked improvement IMO.

Edit: Here is some captures... I think its almost too bright?
