Its Nick And Felicity On Evening News Tonight

Bookbinder joining Chris Rogers for Drivetime today, I suppose thats because Felicity is doing the EN... but she didn't present the 3pm hour, that was Lucy Alexander.

They seem to be using a new style of background on the News Channel now, the reversed titles with blue overlayed on top. Similar to what they used during the 7pm ITV50 interviews during the week of guest presenting on the EN...

Did anyone else see the 'Recorded Earlier' symbol during 'Live' with John Nicholson?

*** They're showing the 9am hour at 11am!?!

I hear rumours of a major flood at ITN today. That's possibly why there was a repeat of part of "Live with John Nicholson". I guess there may be other consequences too!

It's 4.30 and they're back in 'recorded earlier' mode, with a repeat of Chris Rogers' 4pm bulletin.

London Tonight with Jonathan Wills is being simulcast as well, looks like there are still problems on the NC, quite a few problems with reports on LT too.

the next news is not on until 11:35 this is the latest i have seen it on this year

I noticed on the end of tonights bulletin with Steve Scott we didnt have the usual Wide Shot and we had a moving camera .. (is it called the Jib ?) to sign him off

Yes I noticed that. Most unusual for them to use the jib for the Weekend News.

They must still be having problems with studio 1 (the virtual studio) as Lucy Owen is presenting from studio 4 (ITV London News):

Other than the stretched logos it doesn't look too bad!

That's the problem with being in the basement!
