Yeah, it was. Thanks.

They all look so young, even though it was only 10 years ago.

Strange how things work out, the four on the right remained at the BBC the four on the left didn't.

Hi guys,

A few things I can reveal about the News Channel moving to NBH without getting into trouble!

- Firstly, overnights on News Channel where World is simulcast remain at TVC for roughly another two weeks
- The virtual studio will be used for the 9pm to 10pm hour on the NC prior to the network bulletin
- There will be a shift in rotas in weekdays - can't reveal any more, but there will be slightly more single-headed pres. Most presenters from 11am onwards will be changing shifts.

Good to hear Simon and Carrie will hopefully be staying put in the mornings.

She was on World from 23:00 UK time. What time did Adnan Nawaz take over - he was on when I was watching at around 5am this morning.

Which pretty much fits with what's been reported previously. I'm guessing no presenters will be leaving the channel, though, with Rachel, Jon and Louise all having left in the last year?

I guess they could make the 9pm hour completely single presented if it is all coming from a different Studio?

Indeed, there may also be some changes to how the rota works in the evening...

Some may be left without a permanent place.

Hi connews - do you know if the NC will continue to broadcast from N8 between 9:30pm and 10pm up until the NBH move to allow rehearsals?
