They said they weren't using large, gimmicky TV screens.

Oh.

Does the set have a glass floor?

I didn't think five news could dumm down any more but yet they've managed it. The sofa is disgusting and it looks way too daytime chatshow.

Probably. If you remember the old thread, the Ed said in the Indie they were not getting involved in the "willy-waving antics" of "my screen is bigger than yours" that the other channels get immersed in.

I wish you would stop perching her arm on the bloody side and sit still!

EDIT:
Whoa! Gordon Brown has had a major hair cut!

Oooh and starting off with a Five News Exclusive.

It's already tapping at ITV's Tonight programme.


And a Sky News Exclusive but not shown until 5:15- a more fitting slot me thinks

That's what I hate most about it!

'We'll cut down on gimmicks'. Ah, good, at last. So when will you do it? I don't think it's now.

The new Five News is a lot better than I expected, it's still feel like a news programme and Natasha is doing a good job so far.

I think they should have swapped around the Five News exclusive with a proper news story like northern Rock or Mhammed Al Fayed.

Please tell me this I'm not seeing this poor reporter trying to imitate 'pop songs'.

I've only just come in on Part 2 and it is dreadful. Features that you'd expect to see on This Morning. Your News and Natasha almost wetting herself at a story about a music website

The music resembles a regional news programme from 1995 and it seems to be finishing at 22 mins past. The shortest commercial half hour ever

Well I sat through it ... and wont again

Too laid back presentation before substance, should be moved to Nuts TV ... would be better there.
