BBC World News: Presentation

Julian Marshall was, in fact, one of the very early presenters on BBC World, or 'BBC World Service Television' as it was known then. There's a clip of him presenting a news bulletin in c.1991/2 on TV Ark.

Indeed. Julian was a presenter on BBC World Service Television in the very early days of the channel, alongside the much missed Lindsey Brancher (where is she???) and the well-known Riz Khan.

Quite a random question, but does anyone know what those cabinets are used for - on the far left?

Looks awful! Maybe the red thing is there as a door and he forgot to close it. It also looks bad because its so dark on that side, it looks really bad.

Not a copy of BBC News much?

That looks like a great studio, though it looks a lot more roomy than BBC World News. It seems Jago Design, the set designers, have used the same idea for the two studios.

Its a bit of a hybrid of ITV and the old news 24 set, looks very gloomy though.

LOL. The pillars. The perspex. The desk. The podium. All very BBC News-esque!! I like it though.

Peter Dobbie and Lucy Hockings - wanderful pair, wanderful coverage

Hmmm. Looks like a working TV newsroom. Tut! How dare they!
