Since when is the little hand ON the 11 when a clock reads 10.30?


Very good point. I do apologise, i presumed that it was the 10.30 top of programme, i do apologise.


I would have thought it MUST be a still from the 10.30. Aren't the clock hands set forward from the clock face? As the 'camera' crosses the clock face the hands move in relation to the background if you see what I mean, so I think that hour hand IS at 10.30. I guess we'll just have to watch tonight and see!

Its all in the perspective of the shot. The 'hour-arm' is pointing half way between the 10 and 11 but due to the clock arms being raised from the clock itself and adding the angle of perspective will result in the arm not looking as if it appears where it should! (lol?)

I was more interested in WHY Central and Westcountry share three political reporters? - whats the connection between these areas? Surely its more obvious for HTV West and Westcountry to share?

Also interesting to see that Wales has FOUR political correspondants covering the conference! With Scottish and Grampian only sharing ONE reporter!

So, what do people think of John Suchet's website that I put up on the last page. Is it good? Is it bad? Should I shut up?

I switched on to the ITV News Channel at 5pm and as soon as the programme guide went off, up came a screen saying:

ITV3 will be launching on Ch34 at 9pm on November 1st showcasting the best of ITV! drama, beand new drama from the US and big-name movies. A preview will appear here from Monday, October 25th.

To view the ITVNC now, I have to have the e-programme guide on!
