That's what got me thinking they may be building a new set. Anyway, Pad, Londoner has explained already but heres a quick picture, you can see the differences.

There doesn't look to be reflections on the desk, maybe I'm just incredibly unobservant.

Having said that, there do seem to be proper reflections in whatever studio they are using at the moment.

From itsrobert's hints, we seem to be seeing some kind of 'third way' that's neither studio 1 nor studio 2.


I understand that they are back in Studio 2 and have been since Sunday evening.

But the normal set has been removed, perhaps?

Well, if they are in Studio 2 the set has got to have been dismantled, the whole of the floor looks fake, aswell as the newswall Confused

Hmm. This is interesting. That last shot on the evening news didn't look like it usually does, I noticed that much.

If News at Ten is back in January, I would guess it'll launch on Monday 7th January with the new set(?) as this is the week when all the new ITV1 dramas and, presumably, schedules, are expected to launch.

Everything behind the desk on that oval platform could be fake perhaps.

It's very good though, hard to tell.

Well, the walkway and platform is clearly fake. which suggests that they've struck the physical 'theatre for news' set and turned studio 2 into a green box over the weekend.

Presumably it's all part of a studio shuffle in the run-up to the NaT launch, but who knows what they're up to?

Perhaps one studio will be for the Lunchtime and Evening bulletins, and one for News at Ten? Presumably there isn't a need for two identical(ish) studios now there's no News Channel? Or am I wrong again?

It seems that the walkway, newswall base and floor are all fake. Which studio they are in, whether it be the main or the virtual 'virtual' one I have no idea.
