A video is available here, from the BBC News website


I assume the Wall Street news round up during the TWT's edition of World Business Report is recorded, otherwise Tanya Beckett would be living in the New York studio.

I just watched that video, I love the two shots used on David Jessel.

I love that shot too. It would be better if they would use it all the time, it reminds me of the old set. The current shot is really bad.

Anyone noticed that in the World News Today headlines bed it seems to be a repeated tune at the change of the headlines. The usual one's continuous.

It's about time they wheeled Peter Dobbie out in a more mainstream slot, he's just too good!

I agree, I like the Dobster. He seems quite calm and comes across friendly.

I don't understand this new time for the 30mins edition of Asia Today. I think 1630GMT means half past midnight in Hong Kong and Singapore and 1.30 pm in Tokyo. It should be called Asia Tonight. I don't think it's a key time for the region...

Well, that's right.
The afternoon stints have become much shorter now.

I dont like the way the music was done in that video posted
If you noticed, the headline bed seemed to begin each time again after each thunderclaps

Didnt sound too hectic.

I dont like the studio.
Far too dark, the projecters really need to be improved
