Does anybody else feel that tonight's News at Ten is a bit sloppy?


Yes, there were quite a few problems with pictures ending too early, etc. I doubt Deborah was bothered, though. It was only a simple human error. Wink /awful joke

Did I just hear Natasha Kaplinksy have a wee name fluff up? She named immigration minister Damien Green as Damon Green...Whooops! Smile


Are you sure she wasn't just introducing a report by Damon Green, one of the news correspondents...?


No it was Lucy Manning I think that done the report...

Extremely satisfied by tonights late bulletin, live links with James Mates, Robert Moore and Bill Kneely and slightly longer than previous weekend bulletins.

An excellent bulletin that Andrea presented very well. The report from James mates in Athens with the gas mask on brought a lot of realism to the current scenario.

Yeah, apparently.

So it isn't just you. Congratulations to you both.

Because of course anybody who wanted to use Twitter and tweet about ITV News wouldn't think about using Twitter and the hash tag #itvnews without it.

A report on the lunchtime news used the word "coloured" resulting in an apology on twitter. Tweeters are saying that the bulletin on ITV1+1 had to have an image saying that the story couldn't be shown for legal reasons. I'm not sure what report it was on.

Just watched the bulletin back online and it was on a report by Richard Pallot about a summit on racism in Football. It jumped straight to Alex Forrest in downing street.

ITN has already issued an apology and as you say, taken steps to remove it from catch-up services and online.

In what context what this word used and by whom? Was it Richard Pallot or an interviewee?

Hmm, I didn't think to do the obvious and Google it!
