I have just seen the titles and I am not that keen on them. I hope they do change the music

I am sure the answer to this question is somewhere amongst the 200+ pages above.........

Nationals and News 24 are now sharing the same studio, and BBC World is (at some stage in the process) moving into News 24 current set. What happens during maintenance, I wonder? It used to be the case that World would use either National studio or their secondary (WNT) set.

Where now?

N9 is supposedly being kept as an emergency backup.

I would also imagine during the studio moves as they have upgraded equipment, they will have carried out maintenance on any remaining equipment, so as to reduce the need in the future.

They still have to have the electrical equipment PAT tested every 12-18 months though - by law.

Hopefully the N8 air con will get redone. Should we be expecting massive changes to N8 for BBC World (as I assume they are paying for it) maybe even a return to the original angle overlooking the balcony obviously with added bits and bobs behind the etched glass, and some of the newsdesks moved into view...

taking into account that last time it faced that way the entire building had to shut its blinds to stop the whole picture being washed out I doubt that'll happen again.

With a perspex screen, wouldn't that diffuse the light?

You probably wouldn't see much behind it, though.

Anyone know why was N9 was chosen to be mothballed as a spare and N8 (the current News 24 'studio') was chosen as the new home of World?
(I'm sure this has been ansered at som point in the last 200+ pages!)
