BBC regional news - Now with added Reith

At least they've "fixed" the titles

More like someone got a telling off!

They also appear to be using a strange Arial version of the Spotlight logo on Facebook and Twitter, and used the old Gill Sans logo on their Breakfast bulletins this morning.

Wasn't there even a version of the generic regional titles with the flying maps produced for London Live that, obviously, was never used? I recall it popping up on here at one point.

Look East used a similar template but instead of saying Travel News they had some more specific e.g. High Street Closed then the town below. Seems like the London implementation makes more sense.

Have London reithed up the screen that says if there is a ‘good service’ or not?

Yes, it used to be on the TV Home website: http://web.archive.org/web/20031003004558/http://www.tvhome.co.uk/bbcnews/1999-regions.shtml

'rainbow boards', in London Underground parlance - yes, they have.

BBC London have also used the opportunity to update some of the lighting in the studio. The desk is now lit red instead of white and the light boxes underneath the screens have changed from red to white.

With added RealPlayer vintage:

If anyone can even still play back RM files!
