News Channel going straight to the BBC Sport Centre without an intro from London after the few trailers that followed the Scotland-only News at 6 - the promo directly before the Sport from Salford was a promo for Sportsday, 'every weekday at 6:30 and 10:30 on the BBC News Channel', which is a bit awkward as tonight that's not correct due to the bank holiday, with no sport at 6:30.
Any more plans to use different colour lighting schemes now we know it's possible in studio e, make the business segments use blue so I ties in with wbr and biz live maybe.

Whilst we have only recent had it confirmed that it can change colours (although members have been saying it is possible since around the year 1066), people who actually work for the BBC will have always known - therefore recent events are unlikely to prompt any change!

They should do otherwise it will take another 3 years to see it.

Though by that same logic, only now has it occurred to them to tweak the lighting, or has a style guide changed to permit the change, considering all programming (including branded programmes like Newsroom Live, Papers and Dateline London) have consistently used the red.
I don't expect any changes, but more flexible use of lighting would surely seem a bit more likely now than previously when exclusively red was used?
so they should try it more often, not as much as bbc world news though as it has specific programmes which need specific themes, but certainly the business news should.
One of the stranger alive interviews currently being shown now on BBC News - someone talking about the death of Gene Wilder is speaking from his living room, holding his phone in one hand with his arm over the side of his sofa! Definitely Skype as the video cut out momentarily and displayed the Skype interface.
Just because something
is
possible, doesn't mean is
should
be used. BBC World News uses different colour schemes because there are differently branded programmes and those programmes can be (and are) sold to partner broadcasters across the globe. The branding and colour schemes are part of making programmes more individual and more marketable from standard BBC News bulletins. The News Channel in the uk is primarily (actually almost exclusively) a BBC News product, so it makes sense that the only colour scheme changes are for Business Live, HARDtalk, and the Film Review (plus subtle changes for Dateline). Business segments on the channel are just that - segments within news. So to preserve the BBC News branding core colour scheme of Red, White, Grey and (almost) black - it's in keeping that the set uses that colour set too.
Not sure why this 'special report' about American gun crime is the top story on the Ten tonight taking up the top 10 minutes. Feels a bit Panorama than BBC News at Ten o'clock.
