BBC World News from New Broadcasting House

Huh, I guess it's possible. What's frustrating is that I do have access to a Comcast subscription, and I can watch it in a browser or on my iPhone/iPad — I just can't AirPlay it onto the AppleTV from the iOS devices because Comcast blocks it. I can do AirPlay from my computer, but it's cumbersome and not ideal.

I tweeted to Comcast a while back. I think they may be working on it. It would be a perfect way for them to allow subscribers to continue watching TV in areas without a cable box in their house.

No back half hour weekend filler programming currently on World to cover the death of Muhammad Ali.

Which the NC Has also been taking for the last hour and a half-Meaning Dateline London won't be shown til later today.

Apologies - Dateline London rescheduled to make way for Muhammad Ali coverage - #bbcdateline will be shown later today

Seems like they've preempted everything to cover the death of Mohammad Ali as of 20:26 GMT. I knew he was a world champion and icon but never knew he was this big.

Right now it's a simulcast from studio E. I'm not sure the presenter but he is wearing an interesting rainbow colored tie. Seems like every other hour they switch back between C and E. When their in C it's branded World News and naturally in E it's BBC News.

From what I gather, WN and the NC have been simulcasting all day.

Going through Zattoo Recall, (all times BST) Gavin Esler was on 1-2, Tim Willcox 2-4, Maxine Mawhinney 4-6, 6-7 Tim Willcox, 7 Shaun Ley, 8 Alpa Patel, 9 Shaun Ley.

Finally a break from the non-stop rolling news. World has Dateline London and the NC The Papers/Sportsday.

Looking at the BBC News channel schedule online there hasn't been any of the normal programmes all day except for Sportsday at 19:30.

Dateline London getting its NC premiere at 2:30am Sunday (normally 11:30am Saturday).

I have found the schedule today completely lazy and boring. Why spend all day going over and over the same thing. There's only so much you can say. Surely they should have shifted away as the day went on. He died, he wasn't resurrected as the day went on.

Frustrating that Talking Business on the NC only gets one airing at the weekend at 2030 which was dumped for rolling news. Fortunately I can catch up on World, but as it didn't go on the NC, it doesn't get uploaded to iPlayer.

Just curious - why is Katty Kay leading this evenings bulletins from a green screen in Washinton, not their main World News America studio?

Presumably they haven't got a crew for today as it's a Sunday, so a fixed camera CSO being controlled from the gallery is what they're capable of providing.
