ITV News Central was showing ITV News Calendar tonight, apparently due to technical problems

Regarding this, I’ve just watched on +1

They obviously had good notice, as they used the generic background, Duncan apologised at length to Central viewers on three separate occasions within the bulletin, and they even included a bit about Bob Warman self-isolating. I think Duncan thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity.
To be fair, the Warman story was actually relevant to both regions - he was the presenter on Calendar's experimental breakfast programme before TV-am launched.

You may be pushing the definition of 'relevant' there Smile

The London news on Breakfast just now has mentioned all 6 of the BBC local radio stations in their patch - I've only heard them mention the London station before.

That is the link to the region they took on air though.

They have occasionally, when there's big story that they're all covering. They used to promote a BBC Essex MW frequency a lot as that was used to carry cricket coverage

Brava! Brava!

Perhaps - following a similar theme - Mad Lizzie could come back and displace Piers on GMB?

For those who didn't see it, Newsnight came from studio B as normal last night. Would assume The Marr Show will continue doing so too.

Poor WCBS 2 NYC is still all over the place. Partially originating from LA and also from the pavement outside the CBS Broadcast Center. They are also presenting the weather from the Mobile Weather Lab which most large CBS O&O have to stream live whilst mobile and from remote. THey are even social distancing on the pavement.
