Election Night 2010

@gottago is quite wierd

Excuse me?

Mean it is quite weird sorry lol

BBC Northern Ireland very odd - its showing the same pictures and sound as Network (or BBC Two NI for us here!) but with different graphics and captions at the bottom! There's a "BBC N.IRELAND" DOG and clock at the bottom and straps are popping up with news from NI constituencies. There hasn't been any NI based opt-outs yet but no doubt there will be or they wouldn't go to the trouble of broadcasting on both BBC One and BBC Two.

Yes, that was the issue.

Ident and titles to the Welsh coverage from S4C (which in terms of pres during the programme sounds the same as the BBC Wales look):-

Can't understand a word anyone is saying of course, but it's nice to look at!

What is the percentage breakdown of the poll!

Presumably NI are getting a clean feed of the network coverage and overlaying it with their own GFX.

Love the live thread - great work Asa!

Enjoying the coverage so far on the BBC - other than the few problems with sound and screens at the start of it. Great "reporters" too - John Simpson, Kirsty Wark, Andrew Marr, Sophie Raworth - impressive!

Wow wasn't expecting the S4C studio to be that big. Where is it?

People being turned away from polling stations?

I wonder if those people turned up at 21:55 or if they had been queueing.
