Problems on BBC News Channel. Freeze at end of countdown for several seconds. Headline bed starts late and then again a few seconds later and no titles after the headlines. Seemed to be a problem with the reports - the John Major one played first even though that wasn’t the top story. No ticker until 23:03.

Autocue seems to be broken as Julian Worriker is reading from the desk. Don’t know if it’s a screen or paper.

Following in from the countdown clips on the other page I came across this tweeted picture from Chris Cook which might be of interest to some...

I wonder what ‘special’ is.

I wonder why there’s boxes to add text!

Watching BBC Newsline late last night and when they had people speaking during a report, there was just a name strap showing up above the BBC Newsline logo and any supporting text (organisation represented etc.) appeared in a separate box that came in from the left above the BBC Newsline logo (the same way that twitter handles come in from the far right of the screen). Only this box was bright white and the text was in red. I've never noticed them doing that before, and they didn't do it at the 6:30pm programme.

Also, during the weather, the first "Sunrise 05:00" box was in the current font and then the second one a few moments later was in Reith.

The boxes to add text are to name that particular viz item in a running order.

For example you could select Business, but then you need to save it and give the template a name ‘Business Countdown for 0830 Tuesday’ then drag into the right running order.

Breakdown just now trying to show HardTalk. Coloured bars came up and Samantha Simmonds had to come back to fill some time.

Threw to a weather report which got interrupted by a still of the titles.

They were then able to go to the show after the weather but have lost all on screen graphics including the ticker.
