Breaking News now on BBC World News, and it seems the indication on the ticker that it is a "Breaking News" story when everything is written ALL CAPS.

And are they simulcast with BBC News channel? Nik Gowing is talking to the eyewitnesses to the helicopter crash & a UK MP...


Not simulcasting. BBC News Special on BBC One at 11am, will be interesting to see whether that is a simulcast.


Anyone know what went on BBC2, as that's their BBC News slot as of this week?


Coast, I believe. BBC One simulcasted the News Channel.

Here's one of the new countdowns in full. You can hear the orchestra in it much clearly. Enjoy.




Now that they're live, I've put all the final WN Countdowns on my Vimeo page. Not sure where gregmc got this one from, but it's missing a digital 'stream' on the Zeinab shout so must have been an slightly earlier edit. I'd rather people looked at the final versions.

I've also put all the World's Newsroom promos up there as I produced and edited those too... with plenty of help.

WOW! Thank you so much! Incredible work!


Thanks. Been fascinating to read all the feedback - both good and bad. These are the four versions delivered for the launch. I'm now working on a couple more to include some people we didn't manage to get into these versions. They should all be completely fresh footage.


Cool! I take it there will be many more when the NC moves? Are we getting new music for the NC countdowns?


Yep. Working on new NC versions next and it will have new music too. With proper strings.


VERY excited to see the NC versions on screen.

The whole World experience is fantastic. All that have worked on it should be congratulated.

Any chance you could work John Simpson's Thunderclap duck back in? Razz

Oh I'd love to. Always one of my favourite bits. I was given a mission not to use any footage that viewers had seen before, but make everything fresh. It all had to be HD too, so no Simpson Thunderclap I'm afraid.

I actually LOVE the new orchestral pieces in the countdown, it livens the music up so much! What is the difference between countdowns A1 and A2, and B1 and B2, set A uses the same clips in different orders or what?

Aww that's a shame, that beat fitted perfectly with that piece of footage. That'll will be the one thing I'll miss...

Don't think anyone would have a problem if they 'staged' another one in HD... Wink

Looks like 0500 hour will be coming from NBH from the 28th January.

I just hope they get the world business report branding sorted as it seems a bit of a mess with different editions having different titles and music.





Yes, the 5am will move to BH in two weeks. Aaron Heslehurst and Martine Dennis are to continue their Friday partnership as well, which is great news. Aaron will be back at TVC this Friday and next. The following Monday sees the move to BH.

Found these on YouTube from 10th January.

This seems to be an interview live on BBC World News, yet there is no ticker and the DOG is wrong.



However, we can see the same two guests in a 'pilot' for Global.



Interesting stuff. Quality is disgusting though!

Shame, still though Alastair Leithead turning around in a 'What the....' style isn't too shabby a replacement.

Yep. More or less the same clips but in a different order. It's to mix them up a bit and ensure that we see different presenters in the last 20s - often the only bit that gets shown. Both of the C versions will be 95% different content to A and Bs.

Is the newsroom on the ground floor? If so I'd love to see a long shot from outside, through the front doors, through the newsroom to NC studio overlooking the newsroom. The speed would be fast like the final shot of the WN countdown, and would be good if you could work in all of the NC presenters, much like the final shot of The Bill.
