I suppose the theme music 3 News Ireland for will be changed when the new studio launches later this evening. If they are going to have a new theme music package; I assume they will have to give a theme that has more authority then the current one?


It's more or less the same as before, a bit of a slight tweak.

That desk seems to be a bit of a decoration for now.

The new lower thirds are nice. Titles are very basic though.

Be3 News now uses more or less the same look as TV3 but with a gold lighting in the studio instead of purple (which actually looks nicer).

Coverage of the new look TV3 News has been added to Presentation Archive.

That certainly is more appealing that the pictures we had before launch.


However, is it just me that thinks the reflections on the walkway and desk look messy?

Matt Cooper confirmed on his radio show, The Last Word, that this set will be used for The Tonight Show with himself & Ivan Yates.

I'm not a fan of purple, but otherwise it's actually quite nice. Is it me or does it has a bit of a French vibe?

Interesting to see that the 7 and 10pm News are keeping their original names. So we have 3 News at 5.30 , 3 News at Seven , 3 News at Ten and presumably 3 News at 12.30 . I have added more images of the studio and graphics from the 7pm bulletin. Further content will be added from tonights 10pm bulletin on Be3 and tomorrows 12.30 News on TV3. Unfortunately, when UTV Ireland was rebranded as Be3, Sky customers lost the HD simulcast hence the lower quality images below.

The logo looks more Channel 5....than C5!

Some studio images from the 12.30, including the use of the desk. All of the mic equipment can be seen in the last image! I agree that it is a real pity the intro and graphics all use purple rather than using separate colors. That is really my only complaint, other than that, it is an excellent studio and program. I actually prefer it to the current RTÉ and old Ireland Live studios, never thought I would be saying that. Doesn't seem that long ago to when TV3's news was in 4:3 and green screen! As always these images and more have been added to the Presentation Archive.

overall well done to TV3 for a stellar relaunch. I'm still not a fan of the theme music, it's a better arrangement than the previous one, but still sounds a bit light at times for me (personal favorite was their 1999-2005 theme music)

The titles are a bit too short for my liking.

I've watched 3News on TV3 Ireland (which also has broadcasts on sister channel be3) the purple colouring in their on-screen graphics is actually quite similar to Channel 4 News at 7:00pm

That's some collection of TX/RX packs around that presenter's waist. Mic, talkback... and what else?
