Nice mix of Reith on the BBC Ten tonight...


I'm not keen on the mix of styles, personally, and having an obvious typo ("Office of National Statistics") in something they've clearly spent time over makes it look like they've focused on style over content.


Such an obvious typo that I still can't spot what's wrong with it!? Presume it's Office for National Statistics, but I really don't care nor do I think it matters.

It isn’t really a typo since it’s not misspelt or set with the letters in the wrong order. It’s simply wrong. And things like that do matter.

Seems they have changed weather presenting shifts on the News Channel this week. Normally, whoever is presenting the weather at 12.30pm does so through to 6.30pm (including two network bulletsin, Afternoon Live and the News at 5).

But this week, Chris Fawkes has only done 12.30pm - 2pm, then News at Five/News at Six, with Ben Rich covering all weather bulletins through Afternoon Live (with an additional "live weather" bulletin at 3.30pm which has normally been a pre-recording). I would like to see this continue, because it gives Afternoon Live more of its "own segment" with its own presenting team that isn't just a long afternoon for one person.

It's Easter holidays so maybe some shifts are unusual lengths.

Either that or some of the presenters are finalising voice overs and other parts for the forthcoming edition of Weather World (which increasingly seems to feature the entire BBC weather team).

They did that at 8pm last night. I thought it was only something they did before linking to the BBC1 simulcasts.

Sometimes if there no decent promos, you might get lucky. IF your really lucky your recording at the same time ; )

Afternoon live disappeared, replaced what must be silmcast of world and the muller report.

Shaun Ley presenting from a rather badly lit and set up studio A. He looks badly keyed onto a background, looking rather super imposed.
