London bombings - TV news coverage

All channels were demanding picture messages throughout the day. Sky were the first channel to show one of these videos from one of the tube trains. I am assuming this means that Sky were also insenstive.

I didn't watch much of BBC News 24's coverage. The reason is not because I don't like their coverage, as it is in-depth and precise (albeit a little slower), however I just don't familiarise with any of their presenters to be comfortable with it. Anyhow, because I saw so little of it I can't say for sure whether they were asking viewers to send in their pictures or 3G videos, however I'm assuming they did - and wouldn't be surprised if their web-site asks for some too.

I don't particularly see what is bad about them asking the viewers to do so, especially if it helps the channels, but more importantly, the investiagtors, understand more about the blasts.

ITV NC now being presented by Steve Scott in Russell Square and Felicity Barr in Tavistock Place.

Apart from D-Day last year I don't think I've seen them do a dual location OB before.

Weren't Mark and Mary atthe same place though for D-Day?

Weren't they on different sides of Pegasus Bridge?

I know Mark was at a scenic spot overlooking the coast, and Im sure someone was there with him, but thinking back now Mary may have been in a field somewhere else nearby.

I doubt that very much. BBC America carry BBC World at times like this. World and News 24 may well have been merged at the time, but it would have been a World feed.

The BBC SE Today sat van was back in Waterloo Road again today. I'm sure I saw reporter Polly Evans in the passenger seat?

Breakfast and Weekend 24 are on BBC ONE tommorow morning

London Tonight simulcast on the News Channel.

thats the same difference isnt it?

Does anyone know what was shown on London TV (Sky 244)?

Also what was on Euronews, it's usually just continuty isn't it?

It was Polly, did a live from Waterloo East station, which takes commuters to Kent and East Sussex.
