Seamless link back to Alistair. But did John Hammond just walk out of the weather shot? Obviously in a hurry!

Well on the whole minus the few glitches here and there it was not too bad overall.

I dont get this. Why couldnt News 24 just act as if its a weekend on Breakfast and produce astons, headlines etc. It wouldnt look as messy as this did.

It has a very ITV feel to it - the "weekend news" ethic and all that.

Personally, the bulletin looked a lot better - although I cannot STAND that camera angle and I wish they'd plonk FiFi on the other side of the desk.

Yes he would have been watching BBC One off-air. I don't know if he even knew he was on N24.

Perhaps because they had very little notice of the fact that they would be doing anything at all.

Also could this be the beginning of the changes, with BBC 1 moving in with News 24 for a couple of days while a temporary studio is set up?
No. N6 was set up and ready to go, but had technical problems.
(The nationals will be moving to TC11, so won't need to share with News 24 like you've suggested)


Don't know where you get that idea from...
