That desk is naff. It's just a block, and the guest looks stupid sitting at the end.


Well where should they sit then? On top or at the front?


They look silly because it is a block. They could always (as stupid as this notion is) sit next to the presenter. At least on a round desk the corner of a desk doesn't separate the presenter and the guest.


Hmm guests who sit at most desks always sit on the outter side of the presenter if its solo.. only place that don't do it all the time is BBC World. I personally don't think its comfortable to interview someone directly next to you.

I really hate that desk that the BBC News channel uses, its bland, unlit and does nothing really, the previous one was so much better.


What is that red lit panel on the front then?

I like the desk, it looks better than the anaemic looking on in TC7!


is that lit, dosen't look very lit to me, the desk looks like an afterthought to me, noticed they still use Big Ted to generate the Contact us graphic on Breakfast, its just so bland, I don't understand why the BBC have gone so backwards with this revamp, gees we are living in the 21st century and they've gone back to the 20th century.

I imagine saying 'BBC News 24', in which case I'm getting sick of the 'swear box' reference.

Hmm - I can't help feel that for a network bulletin that unless it is to be used it shouldn't be on show.

Don't really see why not.
