Terrible exit poll for Lib Dems - totally against daily tracker polls.

No overall for Cam the Sham - had four years to win it outright and failed - not a strong Tory leader - even Major managed to get over the line. He will probably do a grubby deal with Unionists of NI

Brown will resign in the morning

Presentation-wise: the coverage on BBC ONE Wales, fronted by Huw Edwards and Jamie Owen, has a very nice News Channel-style "BBC Cymru Wales" DOG and clock. The name straps animate in roughly the same style as on the network news (Wales Today ones just fade on and off) - they're also using the NC's 'news in brief' label above the straps in different colours to clearly identify the different party speakers. A grey ticker is popping up occasionally.

Major had a significantly better starting position than Cameron has inherited.

There is obviously going to be an accident with this running business. Completely pointless and stupid.

It's weird to see that the next programme on the ITV1 EPG is GMTV!

Sunderland had the same set up last time around with the boxes being bought in buy runners, and may have done a couple of times before that...they like to be first to declare.
