Newsnight not looking too bad in A actually, albeit the keying being a bit off.

It looks crap. There’s no depth. Don’t know why they didn’t just make this studio a copy of the normal World studio rather than VR.

Separately, I can't believe that Newsnight is still using the pre-2013 lower third style graphics!

and the background images are pixellated, but it's better than the normal virtual news set

So this from 1615 is relevant to the issue then.


Yes - what first alerted to me to the problem was when 6 Music couldn't hand over from Salford to Wogan House until about 1645.

Biggest crime of all is Newsnight still using the pre-2013 lower third style graphics!
Rkolsen and all new Phil gave kudos

Did the Salford programme have to continue on air until they could?

It did, and was quite an enjoyable listen - Stuart Maconie went a bit off-piste with the playlist. They still managed the news (from London) at 1630, presumably because that's permanently routed.

I assume this is why we're not getting any lives into the 10 from the likes of Kuenssberg, Adler or Doucet tonight.

We had Katya Adler live from Brussels and Paul Adams live from the UAE Embassey after his report, then Emma Vardey live from Belfast.


All the stops have been pulled out for this it would seem.

Indeed. If I hadn't been on here, I wouldn't have worked out there was any problem. Although the Kuenssberg report was fully recorded, it wasn't that unusual for there not be a live with Laura K after it, especially as the PM had moved on to Brussels and the latest updates from there (covered live by Dr. Adler) seemed to be most important today.

That'll teach me to pay closer attention.

Hard to say if Newsday will broadcast normally at 12am once the News Channel has stopped broadcasting from there. I guess we will find out in an hour's time!

My Guess Babita will move to E and we will just have standard half hour bulletins. Just a guess though!
