Looking at that, I think I'm going to miss tractor cam... It is a very nice shot, despite the dodgy colour balance, exposure and NOISE.

Well, it's nearly time...

I wonder if that last BOTH had the last reference to News 24?

Reboot
50-second countdown, outgoing-style.

And new style titles, just BBC WORLD NEWS bottom-left, no TWT. And... uh... where are they?

Old-style DOG. No captions or ticker except the DOG & clock.

Jonathan Charles and Tanya Beckett welcome in the new look...

Reboot
Complete $%^&-up with the straps. They've attempted to squeeze two lines of text into an old-style strap with ALL the text in the "NEWS IN BRIEF" area directly above the DOG, and it overlapped itself *and* overflowed onto the DOG...

Graphics error there...

1999 called - they want their aston animations back! I mean comeon - they could have done better than wipes! (This is BBC World News - we have the new astons and they are ****.)

still says NEWS 24
RE
Reboot
Outgoing-style aston, new-style slide for a full-screen telephone caption (picture of correspondent, capital grey-on-white name above the aston area, new globe in the background).

Looks very transitional - this is clearly all going to be an old/new mix until after Breakfast.

Not trying a strap this roundup.
