I wonder if the set will be reused for Question Time after the Ten O'Clock News?


I doubt it - it would be very trick to re-set and re-light a decent quality OB in the short amount of time available.

...and ITV & Sky have lots of advertisers' money to spend.


Exactly, Sky's set hardly looked cheap even if it was tacky.

Don't know but I doubt that the QT programme will be held at the University itself (the debate venue), it would add significant security issues, best to put Dimbleby into a car and whisk him off to a different location.

I think you'll find Dimblebot is a self-accelerating perpetual motion machine.

Patrick Burns just said tonight's Question Time was coming from the University. Whether that means the same room, I don't know.

I'd still say ITV had the best set - simple, but effective.

You are joking?

As others have said, looked like it was off of a 1980s edition of Kilroy!

Why is that a bad thing? What was wrong with the Kilroy set in the 1980s?

Adam Boulton on Sky has just said that Dimbleby will be moderating the debate on one side of the university before dashing across to the other side to present QT. From that I take it they have separate studios.

Adam Boulton said Dimbleby will make his way across the uni grounds after the debate to present Question Time.

BBC Midlands Today's Nick Owen just got caught out by a microphone being left on. During the pre-titles two way at the start of their 6:30pm show, he had to keep looking down at his script. Once the show had started, he could he heard saying "Did that look awful?"

BTW, Is that a broadcaster's helicopter over the Birmingham site or the police?
