Somebody needs to tell whoever is responsible for the ticker on the BBC News Channel that polling stations closed 17 minutes ago.

EDIT: Eventually removed about 50 minutes after becoming inaccurate.

Oh gosh! That background looks ghastly! They are not two floors up from the newsroom. CRINGE!

Reeta is a former BBC Political Correspondent, so perhaps not as strange a booking as it might seem.

And she's held the news summary role since 2015 I believe, so she's not exactly a brand new election face.

Reading the news summary is hardly stepping into a role previously held by Vine/Maitlis. It does sound like they’ve combined two roles into one.

Is Newsnight likely to come from B?

Newsnight is from A this evening, in a simulated version of the Studio B hard area but using the standard Studio A desk.

It’s a quite well done. I thought it was the right hand side of B to start with like it’s been the rest of the week.

But defo A.

Studio A serves which purpose generally?

News summaries tend to be done by the duty overnight presenter (usually Mike Embley) other than for general elections.

I’m embarrassed to ask for a reminder but...

Please could someone outline what studio is what. #sorry

Nice of the News Channel to give us an 84 second countdown into the special. It's not even the top of the hour so I was surprised to see the proper countdown.

The blurry newsroom backdrop looks as crap as feared. Nice desk though.
