Tonight on MT, 'Nick Meets' Colin Baker, with clips from Dr Who(Attack Of The Cyberman) & The Brothers.

He was upset about Pebble Mill, & Nick was nodding agreement it appears, from the editing.

I noticed on BBC1 Midlands tonight, before the 6 o'clock news, the BBC1 Forest ident was shown and the announcement went along the lines of:-

"This is BBC1 in the Midlands. Now, the 1 o'clock News with Sophie Raworth and Kay Alexander."

Rolling Eyes

Honestly, BBC1 is getting as bad as FTN used to be!?

Those astons were obviously burned onto the report and the cue cards were Autumnwatch cue cards.
Anyone notice the dodgy lighting as well? The desk not lit up and the lights by the plasmas were purple! I think the purple colour looked quite funky! Laughing

The Purple should stay and the desk should get dimmed down.

EDIT: Sorry for the bad spelling , thanks Nick for telling me.

So have you been learning your spelling, grammar and construction from that idiot with a number instead of a name?

Isn't it about time MT realised BBC WM no longer broadcast on 94.8, 103.7 & 104 fm, as several of their captions have stated this week?

(These are the CWR frequencies!)
