ONLY TOPPED BY KATTY KAY'S PERFORMANCE ON THE OVERNIGHT JOINT SERVICE. STARTED WELL WITH A DOUBLE HEADED WITH MARTINE IN LONDON AND KATTY IN WASHINGTON.
TECHNICAL PROBLEMS AND WRONG CUES ENSUED FOLLOWED BY THE REPEATED FAILURE OF LIVE OBS, SEEMING TO USE VIDEO PHONE TECHNOLOGY, WHICH OF COURSE, FAILED TO WORK PROPERLY.
THEN CAME THE START OF THE REST OF THE DAYS NEWS, SUPPOSED TO BE TAKEN BY MARTINE, FROM WASHINGTON. KATTY AD-LIBBED FOR A TIME AND THEN THE REPORT FAILED TO PLAY. LONG FACE AND LONG CUE BEFORE MARTINE APPEARED AND TOOK OVER, READING THE OTHER STORIES AND LATER REPEATING THE STORY KATTY HAD STARTED.

IT ALL LOOKED VERY SLOPPY.

The post deleted by Andy Tyne Tees at the top of this page read, "Any caps?" - as so many of his posts do.

I think the message following was an humerous response.

Oh, thanks Gavin.

Actually, Andrew Tyne Tees doesn't ask for caps all the time. I was confusing him with someone else.

My apoologies.

(However, that is what he wrote)

The graphical on-screen appearance will get a full overhaul. Not a tweak.

When you say graphical do you mean new titles/ stings as well as the astons etc?

I think new titles and stings will also appear to match in with the nationals, or maybe a lil' bit different but same idea.
