I think this shot is great, much better than the one they always use.

Can someone update me on what's happening on BBC World. Are they changing that ugly dark set they use on World News Today?

It seems like they are, according to James Hall , who I assume works at BBC News. I love the top shot. It has less of the "bleeding" red that overcomes the surrounding image, and has galleries in it, and I think it seems alot more open. The bottom one makes it seem like a room withthe red bar, but the top shot makes it seem like they are in the newsroom, not enclosed by glass.

Are they using the main BBC World set now? If not, will the overnight bulletins come from N6 as I believe maintenance is still going on at News 24.

My goodness Damo. Nicholas Owen on BBC World!! Sheer class.

And Clarence Mitchell in Portugal! He used to be a BBC reporter.


Did you mean Clarence Mitchell! I thought he had left the BBC to concentrate on other business opportunities... can't quite remember what though, thought it was the government or something?

There's only one bulletin when they were in N6 (Nat'l News studio, HARDtalk studio).

Yes, I mean that very same Clarance Mitchell. He did not appear on the programme as a BBC Reporter, but was interviewed by Caroline Hawley live in Portugal. The Aston stated "Clarence Mitchell - Spokesman for the McCann Family".

The second set is just awful, David Brenner sitting on the side of that huge semi circle desk, at least their previous set when they had the triangular design seemed to look a lot better then this!
