Actually I'll miss Matt's last one as well, seeing as 5 News isn't available on Demand 5, can anyone capture it pretty please?

I'm not the UK at the moment, so we have BBC One and Two London, World News, ITV1 Border, CBBC and Cbeebies. Then Cbeebies switched to BBC4 and CBBC cuts off at 7 and they don't let 3 come on.


Where on earth are you?! ITV1 Border abroad?!


It isnt suprising, when I was in Spain once, we received Channel Television.


Just returned and had Granada, last year I had Border, I've also had Central but never ever London even though the BBC 1 region is London or South.

That was Matt's last bulletin, he just closed the laptop and walked off set. Video coming up.

5.30 was his last, he said goodbye (and "I'll see you around") and as the titles rolled he closed the laptop and walked off the set. Also suggested Emma will be doing both buletins from now on.

If I take my card out of the Sky Box, I get BBC one London, ITV Central and Channel 5 is blocked! But when card in its all the appropriate stations for North West. Bars near me have ITV Central, Channel TV, ITV London and even seen STV!!! then of course there are the bars that have the Irish boxes with the Irish stations!

Howcome ITV London is not the default channel, like BBC one London is default?

I think the reason Central is the default for non card viewers is that ITV London is on the EPG outside the London tv region on 993.

Back on topic, I liked Matt's walk off set during his sign-off.

They even put in the presenters name in the credits, which isnt normal, nice touch ITN.

So Emma becomes 5News main presenter and I would guess Polly will be making more appearences along with others to provide cover, it would explain why different faces have been appearing at lunchtimes.

EDIT: So Matt never got to see/present from the new studio, if it ever appears
