Would it be possible to capture BBC World News America in HD. Not sure if the schedules match up with one of the HD simulcasts?


BBC World News America isn't shown in the UK anymore unfortunately.

One thing that really bugs me about the move to NBH is the BBC World News TOTH sequence. I don't like the order of it.

2013 - I don't like the presenter introducing the bulletin straight away.

2008 - Its alright I suppose, but still nothing on 2007 sequence but better than 2013

2007 - One of the best, perfectly timed headlines/script thunderclaps every 5 or 6 seconds being part of the track itself and its fast paced and to the point, no fluffing around.

2004 - I quite like this too esp when the music kicks into the headline bed after they've said hey.

Theres not much real point to this post other than to say I don't like the new order of events. If you don't get what I mean its simply the whole countdown > hello > headline > headline > headline > headline > titles or head > head > head > intro > hello > titles order of sequences

That's the era I watch BBC World more often. The starting lines always make me chuckle, that "BBC News from BBC World". Nisha Pillai's line was much better. But the headline bed is really fast-paced and more serious than the 2002 version.

the Washington studio is SD, so it's only really the titles and graphics where you'd see any difference.

(Come to think of it, I think the cameras are 525i60, so hopefully they've got the converters set up to go straight to 1080i50 without another step in the middle.)

Hang on, wasn't the last Election Night in HD?

Does anyone know what happened to the legendary TIME CHECK? I can't comprehend what they did to the breakfillers, 2 years ago they looked a lot slicker, in my opinion a step backwards, though the music is now better!

The time check on the breakfiller? I think it's gone. I only see the Coming Up, News, Business and Schedules, but I'll be very happy for someone to correct me! Very Happy

I saw that few days ago! Too bad I don't have recorder and BBC World is not available in widescreen over here in South Korea.

What region does BBC WN provide in South Korea? For us here in the Philippines, Asia Pacific and Time Check don't appear since the new breakfiller came out in around October last year.

Au contraire, Lee... I seen the "Time Check" a couple of times, but it only show-up on certain times.
They still use the same time zones... London, New York, New Delhi, Singapore, Hong Kong, etc.
The background for Time Check is the one with a Chicken... I don't know why. Laughing
