We are with the News Channel's 5, coming from the virtual studio. Is the 5 normally from The virtual studio?


The 5 and 9 on the NC come from the virtual studio.


No, that's incorrect... the 5 comes from studio C and the 9 from A.

SplIt from the two erstwhile mega threads.

World played a recorded edition of Impact instead of Global. Then the back half edition of Global was replaced with HardTalk. No headlines at the BOTH either.

Now World is showing the BBC News at 5 with Emily Maitlis from the virtual studio A.

Yes, the 5 normally comes from C. Whatever the problem is it's affected the C and B galleries as the News Channel in E was OK.

Not quite sure if Camera 1 really derailed today also.

A lot seems to have go wrong today!

D gallery? The BBC London News studio?!

Well, from what i see, the 5 is aired from Studio A

Aren't they normally a bit more accommodating for World News when the NC is in charge of a simulcast, dropping local time checks and leaving opt out points?

EDIT: Actually I think they might be being a bit kinder with the wording for non-UK viewers. I would assume at this point that most viewers in the UK would know who Nigel Farage is, so explaining that he is the leader of the UK Independence Party may have been for WN benefit.

Well, from what i see, there will be no OS or FoA, and BBCWN would carry the 6 and Sportsday

Wrong thread^


No its not. I was correcting another poster who said the News at 5 comes from A normally, when it comes from C.

Not usually, it comes from C.

And it's a bit of a clunky bulletin so far.

It looks like World Will be taking The Six instead of Outside Source

No @BBCOS TV today I'm afraid. We've got tech issues here (too complicated for a tweet), so you'll see the 6 O'Clock news instead. Sorry..
