Christ, its all going to pot tonight!!!

The 01:15 link was very odd!!

I wonder what they were telling her on the talkback for her to stutter like that!

I think it was probably an ad-break for World while she did domestic stories; the pause might have been waiting for World to rejoin...?

Almost certainly - there's not really a lot you can do to fill for two second between a VT finishing and being able to begin your next link!

Not all 4 feeds of BBC World go to an ad break at once though.

Well they could of stuck it in N9 to give everyone a feel of what to expect from Tuesday.


And give themselves extra work for tonight. From tomorrow N8 will be out of action so they will have to use N9, until it's been refurbed then overnights will be back in N8.

They stuck the 9.30pm bulletin in N9 for a few days last week, why though - as there was nothing happening in N8 at the time.


They will be moving into N9 between 9.30pm and 10pm every day (until World moves to N8, when they will be moving there instead) in order to allow the 10 time to rehearse. The moving earlier in the week was a rehearsal to check they can get the right presenters in the right studio with the right scripts and right reports, as described in this very thread.

Sorry dunno, but I know there is the Asia Pacific feed (my feed) Which is proably the worst for overnight programme. Full of repeats of Asia Today, and 2 live versions of Asia Business Report then a few more repeated and some WBR.

I don't like the feed because the Asian focus and I live in NZ! Id like to see Sport Today in there and a Click one day, fast track the next etc.

Dunno the other feeds of World though sorry!

Asia Business Report has new astons - They look great static (ABR is still on Big Ted) but don't really match the programs titles - hopefully that means a refresh is on the way. They are white, with the text on the left and images on the right. Don't have the ability to cap unfortunately.

Not as big as it looks on the telly, thats for sure!

20 metres in depth by 25 metres in length at best I'd say, but thats going from what I've committed to memory! Could well be smaller thinking about it.
