Jane Hill & Ben Brown are doing BBC News at 5 this evening. The headline strap had no BBC News logo appearing at the start.

I think the graphics package was accidentally still in The Film Review mode which would've been recorded just before the 5 began. Graphics also appeared in Film Review format too

On CNN it's a parade of domestic fill in people, including reporters and resident talking heads (Nia-Malika Henderson on air now), anchoring coverage of an international news story.

Meanwhile CNNI's Lynda Kinkade, whose regular shift this is, sits in the anchor chair tweeting.....

I'll be honest, that looks better than the normal graphics.

A man went through the cordon near where Ben Brown was doing his live broadcast from London Bridge.

Ben Brown had a small audio delay before he handed back to Jane Hill.

Whoops! Jane Hill of all people doing a time check during a TOTH simulcast.

Today at five is the standard opening for the five so it appears that no one updated the autocue to take into account the fact world was simulcasting and quite possibly nobody told Jane either.

She also commenced the bulletin with Welcome to the BBC News at 5.

She’s a pro so I agree, probably wasn’t briefed.

Looks like World is generating their own chyrons instead of taking a straight feed as that didn’t show up.

By headline strap you mean the vertical logo above the large Reith headlines in the open? Then that appeared on World as well. Does the 5PM newscast still have the negative space 5 in the globe as well? If so a generic open played out on World as well.

Sky appear to have shown the entirety of the pool interview with the PM by John Pienaar before the BBC got it to air.

Is tonight's election debate on BBC One going to have a further increase in security because of the incident in London Bridge?
