The rooftop camera was also used as a pooler or uplinked to the AP, Reuters or EBU I guess. It was on NBC News.

There were a few rooftop cameras: one on the balcony on the top of BH; another on the Langham Hotel, overlooking BH (I should have got a photo of this when I went past!), and others in Westminster.

It was the rooftop one on the balcony (presumably weatherproof housing) looking towards the road and the All Souls Church spire. But they could have used a real cameraman for better quality and mobility.

I swear that someone purposely sabotages the camera positions whenever Martine is presenting, just so she can have an ad-lib joke about the cameras going out of position! Doesn't make the camera glitches any less annoying, but it's always good when Martine makes light of the situation.

Sportsday is on early by about 10 minutes.

EDIT: Which will presumably be slightly curtailed for the second coming of BBC News at Ten.

Would’ve been nice if Huw presented the News at Ten for the NC like a generic BBC News bulletin, rather than as though it was being broadcast on network channels. Was somewhat confusing since it felt like it was being broadcast on some network channels even though it wasn’t.
