Perhaps it was to satisfy the usual requirement that a spoof news bulletin must vary from the real thing.
They've done bulletins from Studio E for Doctor Who and Sherlock before and Studio A has appeared in a few other programmes such as EastEnders. Surely if it must vary they'd also not allow Evan to be doing it?
That's what I mean. Add Evan, take away the studio. Add the studio, take away Evan and replace with Jimmy Frinton or similar.
The appearances of BBC News in Doctor Who that I can recall have usually included poor recreations of the BBC News graphics to counter any potential realism, though the ones I remember had fictional presenters in a set not resembling the national sets at all.
I seem to recall Matthew Amroliwala did one, as ISTR Jane Hill referring to it as the ideal cameo or something like that. He also did one from Studio E for Sherlock which was notable for the fact it neither used the smart glass screen or the screen that is currently in use. During the RTD era of Doctor Who it predominantly came from the Wales Today set. In the first series it was BBC News 24 then it became just News 24 then became BBC News again. On the Thick of It they used almost perfect recreations of the BBC News graphics over genuine News Channel footage, simply with the sound down.
