I see Julian Marshall is back on again today for the morning shift at World.

I saw Peter Dobbie was on yesterday with the middle shift. Out of curiosity, did anyone happen to see who else was on yesterday?

I saw Lynette Tye presenting the morning shift, James. I can't help with the evening though.

I don't know, but I would guess that some form of electrical testing or maintenance is going on in N8.

I just got a text message from 3 Mobile here in Australia to let me know that as of 16 December 2008, they will no longer be offering BBC World News on Mobile TV. Does anyone know anything about why this is?

General incompetence?

You can watch it with Livestation if you're not on Foxtel or one of the minor providers like TransACT.

Not sure on the reason but BBC One, BBC Three & BBC News were all on the 3 Mobile Network here (UK) for 12 months trial and this has concluded. I guess it wasn't being used enough to justify the cost & suspect this could be why its happened with BBC World?

1000CET BBC World News was done by David and Martine Dennis. Shocked Are they switching to 2 anchors on every hour, that would be great.
