Yep we are in TC7 complete with working lunch desk setup (blue cover on top!)

Also they are seemingly using the blurred backdrop they normally use when in tc7 or n6, but the chair is in the working lunch position so there is nothing on that part of the background!


What's happened? Powercut?

yeah, apparently power problems at tvc.

They couldn't run the BBC1 update at 15.20 and had been with chris eakin on an ob for about 20 mins, unable to link back to London.

Plus we were seemingly having a simulcast with world as well.

I think it's actually the background BBC World use when they're in TC7.

Are you watching World?

no, but a few mins ago we had Jon saying - stay with us on the BBC, this is BBC News, with a massive pause (about 15.28?) suggesting world were leaving.

Im watching the News 24 online stream.

My friend at TVC says "Yep, various bits of TVC are in total blackout.
The network is down too."

I think you are right, there was more black bits in the corner, N24's one is a lot lighter iirc.

Yep, graphics aren't working properly either. Currently the DOG is BBC News - now News 24 and the astons are not animating, just fading. While live in Gloucester, the live BUG faded off so they could put an aston up, like they couldn't have both on at the same time.

There was a large transformer failure, which knocked out most of the building. The lights - and, more importantly, air-con - seem to be coming back on now.
