Sky winning the night so far - always rated Dermot Murnaghan.

C4 actually losing the night for me as it isn't the alternative - it's generally election night coverage with as breaks and Katherine Ryan being used more as an election host than comedian. Their graphics are awful too - almost 1 star in the gallery bad.

Once again disappointed by Reeta, she's fine with an autocue but struggles a little when she has to ad lib.

The BBC studio looks cheap and underwhelming.

Such a pity they couldn’t use Studio D at BBC Elstree again.

BBC Scotland looks far more impressive.

I briefly caught Katherine swearing her head off, clearly not happy with the exit poll.

A side note: S4C used identical titles to the BBC with the exception (naturally) of the title card in Welsh.

Richard Quest is on CNN with Robin Oakley. Now there’s a blast from the past. I knew Oakley went to CNN years ago, but didn’t realise he was still there.

Sky's analysis of each result is far superior to the BBC and ITV.


We are not hearing enough about swing from the BBC as I would have expected. Swing used to be their primary focus it seemed, but no actual swingometer that I've even noticed.

Swing has been shown on results.

Sky now doing Headlines sequence.
