The 9pm bulletin was a domestic bulletin, while WNT only went out on World.

A 30 min episode of The Papers at 23:30. First time I've watched in a long time, Maxine really is excellent, isn't she?

Good contributors tonight too, really helped. A third reviewer was added in the form of Denis Staunton, London Editor of The Irish Times.

I think you mean Martine, not Maxine, but yes it was a really good Papers tonight, perhaps they should always do 30 minutes as they can certainly fill it (it's really only about 22 minutes when you stick headlines on the front and weather on the end anyway).

I don't watch it often, only if I'm flicking channels and stumble on it. I find myself sticking with it if Martine is hosting more often than when she isn't, but regardless of presenter it's always a better watch than Sky's paper review.

I see Diane Abbott MP was at NBH defending Jeremy Corbyn, at the exact same time Ian Murray MP was on the other side of building quitting the Shadow Cabinet. I hope they didn't have to share a lift afterwards...

Didn't know where to put this as it applies to BBC News channel and BBC World News, I noticed on BBC News on BBC One, BBC World News and the sport and breakfast from Salford, the line which has the persons name is slightly misaligned to the left on these outlets, but the BBC news channel is the only outlet where everything is aligned perfectly Wink using this info you can tell on simulcasts where the lower thirds are being generated.

The straps on Business Live have been appearing blank for most if this edition. I suspect the issue isn't appearing on World News.

If the name line is misaligned then the problem will be seen on both news channels, the name line is the giveaway Wink

Since the simulcasting, the graphics come from the usual gallery they use for those studios, it's only the logo and ticker that's unique

The fault was only on the NC feed. World captioned the contributor and then used it for this.

Why isn't the BBC News Channel using the countdown at the TOH? It's the version without the countdown that just fades out, being used.
