Community Radio isn't immune to Ofcom rules though, never has been. If you're broadcasting in this country you have to fit in with the rules, and now that most stations are streamed on the Internet, you can't claim you're too far away not to influence a vote.

Many years ago I worked on a community radio station that, a few times a year, broadcast for a month on a restricted service licence on FM. Although many of us were completely new to broadcasting, we all had to know the rules and what was and wasn't permitted. It was very much adhered to. We even had an Obit procedure.


Exactly the same with student radio too.

Also we see the return of the podiums of last year minus the clever colour effects sadly.

I'm also disappointed that they didn't use those clever lighting effects on the podiums. I'm sure they could have come up with a neutral non-political colour.


I never did work out how they did that effect last year.

Interesting to see them still using u.tv/news on the strap since everything has now migrated over onto the ITV News website...

I wasn't expecting to see Dimbleby present another overnight results programme.

Wow, quite a career move for former American footballer Tom Brady.

Jokes aside, a solid line up on both BBC and ITV - whichever side you choose you're getting good coverage.

So BBC World News is not carrying the first hour? That's an unusual decision considering that this referendum is of major international significance.

I suppose it's so the PBS networks can still get World News America at 2200 BST?

That'll be it. And I would expect WNA to explain the referendum with an international perspective which would probably be better than the 65 minutes of waffle we will be getting at home as no results will be in that early anyway.
