Channel 4 News

Sounded like somebody fell over or dropped something that made him lose it.

Just watched that myself on +1. Seems as if there was something wrong with his microphone and then he went hysterical after that.

Tonight there is live deaf signing of the programmes

This evening's edition had some fairly generic looking opening titles, rather than featuring images from the top story. New look, late change to the running order, or just nothing suitable from the top story?

They were quite London specific for generic titles. Felt like they were run by mistake to me.

I didn't see these go out, but the generic titles feature 3 time-lapse sequences (two of which are very obviously London):







Not sure why these would have been used though?

Yes, those are them. Must say not a huge fan of the current titles - a bit too simple for my liking.

I'm undecided. I quite like the simplicity.

Back to normal for Tuesday's show. I guess they didn't put much effort into the generic ones as you're not meant to see them!

Surprise announcement

I have left Channel 4 News and ITN after seven and a half great years. Farewell to all my fabulous colleagues. I’m looking forward to an exciting new life writing books again, and all sorts of other activity in journalism and other fields.

Pretty sure I just heard Jon Snow say 'Piss off' at the end of the lunchtime summary. No weather either, brief shot of the map before being cut off.

Liam Dutton on backup duties tonight.

All of tonight’s @Channel4News is coming from outdoors, so I’m on standby in the studio in case of any technical issues...
