The green color looks brilliant in that studio, good to see a change from the usual blue, red, and white.

Business Live is just another WBR. There is nothing special about it I thought they'd give it completely new titles and music but they didn't. The backdrop is nice though so maybe they could use that one during the regular news bulletins for part of the day.

The studio looks nice but as already mentioned the background doesn't make sense, the sun is already fully out by 08.30 and the fact they use the regular daytime one before and after doesn't help either.

IMO they should use it for from 5.00 am until 9, after Business Live and then switch to normal daytime.

The titles fit the way business news is branded across BBC World News and BBC News Channel so it's no surprise that they aren't widely different.

It would be nice if they could have the same type of design for Business Edition.

I was under the impression that Business Edition was being axed and replaced by a new edition of Outside Source.

With the clocks changing, Outside Source is now once a day, not twice and Impact and Global have been pushed back an hour to allow for the extra edition of GMT so this time there is a complete time change but we wait to see what happens in October. Also, Impact and Global have swapped programmes in the back half-hour.

Buisness Live is a good programme! Interesting idea. Good presenters working together providing good coverage to the start of the European buisness day. It will be interesting to see if they take the World News Today simulcast approach when it starts on the NC and remove the ad break completely.

What would make sense if Buisness Edition is replaced by Outside Source (or a new programme) would be to turn it into a buisness only programme on a similar time slot back half-hour (eg after World News America) with Tayna Beckett/Jamie Roberston in London and Rico Hizon/Sharonjiyt Layl/on duty presenter in Singapore Sunday-Thursday (GMT) and have it as a jointly presented programme like Newsday but for Buisness to give viewers a preview of Asia and a round up from the US in a similar way Buisness Live does in the morning GMT for Europe. I know it makes the turnaround tight in Singapore for Newsday but Newsday has shown that it's possible to have this kind of a programme. Instead of broadcasting from London, another possibility is to have Michelle Fleury presenting from the New York Stock Exchange on a day when the US has traded in order to provide live interviews from the floor. It could be called Bizday to fit with Newsday!

Also great to see WN finally in HD in Europe!
