World/NC Simulcast with Babita Sharma at 10. I would assume that Clive will go and join Babita in C?

Katty Kay in Washington at the moment (it's the World News America timeslot). Presume Babita/Katty jointly presenting?

It seems all of the channels have the same footage of the first explosion but I have only seen it played out with audio on Al Jazeera.

EDIT: ITV also played it with audio.


And BBC did in the Headlines of 10.

They have moved onto other stories already - wise move as rest is speculation for now. Will no doubt return to it later in bulletin

We haven't any live pictures from the ground recently... Understandable I guess.

In Mark Mardell's report he said 'One lady fell over, shocked by the blast' or something along those lines... When clearly she ran into another person and was tripped.

Pretty good package put together by Mark Mardell in a relatively short space of time.

I think Sky were reporting that, before the press conference took place. AP were the first agency to report the third I believe.

Although on a smaller scale it reminds me a lot of the London bombings.

Sky said their colleagues at Fox are suggesting there is a person of interest but sky are not going to qualify that

Good timing for Gordon Corera to arrive in DC.
