There's an excellent 2'00 montage of BBC World News over the years now on that page.

Absolutely love the transitioning BBC World logo throughout the ages, incorporating different looks and feels. Superb.

And it's gone...

You'd think they'd leave it up for a few weeks to a month. At least they're not quite like CNBC which had the CNBC 25 bug up the entire year.

Normally: Business Live at 8pm, OS at 9pm and WNA at 10pm

But now with the move about, does Business Live not air for the next few weeks as OS is at 8pm and WNA at 9pm?

According to the World News schedules on the BBC site, the answer is no it doesn't. It seems to be: WNT at 7pm as usual, Outside Source at 8pm, WNA at 9pm followed by a generic world bulletin at 10pm, and then Newsday as normal at 11pm.

Wouldn't this have been a good time to move Buisness Live to a back half hour?

Nice seeing the two weeks of US / Canada being ahead of UK of BST is screwing up the schedule. For some reason I stupidly thought there would be a special bulletin for North America not to screw up the rest of the worlds schedule.

Small breakdown on BBC World News into GMT including a switch to st-b screen and the old logo on the breakdown screen.

Also there was a brief breakdown before the second hour of GMT when they move to studio B. The countdown played normally then a quick slide popped up with an image of the newsroom and text that read "Switch to ST-B". Below is the generic breakdown card that I'm posting through Twitter as its the easiest way for me to post an image on my iPad.





Edit : As I started to write this post the above post had yet to appear. Apologies for a double post.

Is there any reason why when BBC World News America comes from the field the program includes the ticker during the PBS broadcast? The only thing I can think of is the show's being produced from London - when the show originates from the field or London the ticker is always there.

The ticker hasn't so far (at least I'm aware of) displayed headlines along the lines of 'Who were the attackers?' or 'Why did it happen?'. But the ticker didn't seem to put news first when 'Japan zebra dies in golf course lake' was the second headline.
