When is the move to BH happening for BBC World News? Wikipedia is still saying October 2012 for the move into the new studios. This would make it tomorrow if it is October.

It will be after the US Elections, so November. We don't have an exact date.


Thanks. Any news about whether Newsday & the overnight bulletins are moving as well?


No News... but seeing as both Newsday and the simulcast overnight bulletins are produced by BBC World News, I think we can safely assume they are moving with the rest of that channel.

I won't be online for the next few weeks so I thought I'd leave you with some captures of N8 from the past 4 years as we get ready to say catch up to it... 1st lot are from 2008-2010 then the minor changes from 2010 to present...

Thanks. Does this mean the 00GMT presenter on the NC on Sunday evening/Monday morning who goes on to present the overnight bulletins will only have an hour to shuttle from TVC to BH? Is this part of the reason Newsday was moved back in mid-June?

No, Newsday starts at 23:00GMT on World News so The UK only gets 1 hour of Newsday at 01:00 so the midnight presenter stays an extra half hour until scheduled programming e.g. hardtalk takes over. So no need to transfer as Babita is already at BH with Mike Embley ready take over at 02:00

I will also miss the current set, it's nice and cosy, has certain warmth to it and the newsroom background is great. I agree that it looked better before the 2010 changes, never liked the small hub on right side they use for 0900-13.00 cet shift, previous chair area for interviews was better.

No doubt the new studios will be gigantic and will give World a totally new and different feel, something it never really had. I'm looking forward to it but at the same time sad to say good-buy to their current home.

You'll see JC doing the paper review on Wednesday morning this week, alas Sal won't be there, as she's doing rehearsals over in BH.

JC will also be back on 14th November for the papers again.

The big 'event' won't happen until the BBC News channel/Nationals take hold of Studio E. Smile

Will this new programme start after the News Channel moves because it says he'll continue his roll as News Channel Presenters and I doubt he'll want to keep going between BH and TVC.


I'd reckon it's more likely he'll disappear from the News Channel for that period, a lot of which will be Christmas anyway. I suspect they'd want the new schedule to launch with the move to BH.

I'm not sure how he can continue in his current slot on the News Channel anyway, as I think they would clash. Sounds like a presenter re-shuffle could be on the way.


I can't see how Sopel can do both - on the information we have seen here. I wonder if they will just give him the occasional shift, so when he anchors on location he is still a 'domestic face.' This could mean Ben Brown to afternoons and evenings single headed on the news channel then.


However, the Schedules for January still show The Hub so could it possibly be waiting till NC moves as there has been some speculation over a rebrand then so could this new programme be launched following this?

Who is in Sal's place on Wednesday?

When Newsday was the overnight bulletins, on Sunday night/Monday morning Babita would do 00GMT on the NC then change studios to do Newsday on WN/NC. Since the change Adnan Nawaz has been doing Babita's old slot as she can't be in two studios at the same time and he's taken over at 02:00GMT from Babita - hence why I ask when the move to BH happens.
