Rob / Anyone,

I am trying to find a full length, unadulterated, unmixed, untouched version of "The Awakening". Does anyone know where I can get it? (Preferring the original orchestral mix, as opposed to the latter synthetic versions.

Many thanks,
James

Geraint is standing up for the news tonight, unlike Nina yesterday. The platform under the desk has a white ring lit around it - it looked good inthe overhead shot.

I agree about the lighting the presenter is much better lit up than in the normal studio.

Edit: Is Alex Forrest a reporter from the regions? I haven't seen her on ITV News before - she is doing a report on TV adverts for kids'.

How it looked this morning for comparison:

And the virtual studio in 2005:

That actually looks really good, I like the design around the desk with the darker colour, and the walkway looks better lower.

It looks like the real desk in the virtual studio (although it's probably not), compared to the one in the Morning news which looked hideous from the pic above.

She was the Political reporter of Central News West and before that was a presenter on Central South.

Interesting.

I presume that they've just added that darker coloured ring via the graphics, but it does look more realistic than it did this morning.

This raises a question, for me I've never been a fan of that grey, obviously its painted rather than being silver or even white so that the green doesn't reflect/blend into it, but would a darker colour look better?

If you look at the teletext cap, they don't seem to have the edging on the wall, and the catwalk looks weird, very interesting.

So, if there are any changes to the set, will we see them in the 5:30 bulletin?

Still in there this lunchtime too. It looks like the real desk has been brought into the virtual set. Could they be in there for the rest of the year whilst a new studio is created?
