nothing against her personally but its such a depressing two hours, seems to love misery stories, with the recent changes in my view it is now the standout poorest show on the channel, wonder what the viewing figures are like?

It's always reminded me a bit of the Firefox logo, coloured blue with a backwards Nike tick.

Ha! Yes it does!.thought it looked familiar somehow. But I cant see anything "Newsie" about it to me, apart from the backwards Nike tick which I assume is supposed to be a "V", then I cant see any presentation connection with the show at all.

I don't see it regularly because I work 9-5 for the vast majority of the year. However, if I'm on leave and happen to be watching TV at 9am, I avoid it like the plague. Absolutely terrible programme that shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a rolling news channel. If I have a lie in on holiday, I would very often have watched BBC News at 9am - since Victoria Derbyshire launched, I don't bother - I watch Sky News instead at that time of day. It's a massive turn off for me.

From a presentation point of view I think it is a step up from most of what BBC News has to offer, especially with how they use the studio. Content wise it is never going to appeal to many here but it does seem to have found it's voice within the market, though it is still in what should be a prime rolling news slot.

For some reason the BBC Iplayer link for todays 'Dateline London' is currently showing an overnight bulletin from last nights simulcast https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b099960z/dateline-london-14102017

Interesting, Dateline London was scheduled at 02:30 on the news channel this morning, when in fact Click aired. Sounds like some scheduling problems.

Interestingly BBC News just showed a broadcast quality clip of Nicholas Witchell inthe broomcupboard the morning after the 1987 storm, I'd always wondered if the BBC would have actually got a recording of that, in all the panic.

I wonder if one of the regions or nations made a recording of 'Net 1' that morning ?

Sarah Keith Lucas is doing on location Weather forecasts from Sevenoaks on Afternoon Live this afternoon. The line is dropping in and out however, most likely due to the weather and the 4.30pm forecast had to be abandoned.

Interesting to see that have that in broadcast quality anyway when the infamous Michael Fish report is only on VHS!
