It looks a lot brighter, and the underground car park doesn't look half as bad!


Agreed, it's done a lot for that studio.

Don't really know why they have those random yellow panels on the desk, would it look so bad it if was just all white ?

They're not that random. It's the ITV logo.

Is there a reason why there is no standing up presentation in this version of the studio? If anything it would be better in this studio.

News at Ten still has a standing presentation position. And yes, there is a good reason!

I like it when the tracking's out and they 'float' above the desk...

There hasn't been a standing position other than the bongs for years!

That's me on the Steadicam in that election behind-the-scenes photo and my Steadicam shots with Julie underneath.

Havw ITN still got that screen? Wouls be good if it could be used more regularly! And its amazing bulky it is and how the screen reflects, yet it is perfectly keyed out!

Not sure if it's a test or live dry runs, but it's not flagged as HD. Lots of Tweets about it.


It's not being flagged as HD as it doesn't reach the minimum required content to qualify. I believe it's pretty much just the studio stuff at the moment. But nice you're still getting the benefit in the meantime after the decade-long wait for widescreen!

I believe he means that widescreen television was launched in the UK in late 1998 - but ITN didn't go widescreen till early 2007.

I see. And when did other news outlets go widescreen?
