New look East Midlands Today

Dont hurt me!! But IMO, i like it. In conttrast, it is better then Reporting Scotland and BBC London. Nothing like South Today!!!

It looks very nice and warm. Reporting Scotland must have the worst set, I wish they would change it. I think my favourtite regional set is still Points West or Newsline.

They look to be rehearsing now! I say it'll be on at one, so ill miss it DAMM U! Looks good though!!!

Is that person sitting at a newsdesk or a kitchen worktop?

they seem to have forgotten about half of the desk

It's not a desk - it IS a worktop! The bloke behind is standing up!

Is tat backdrop a virtual newsroom? or gallery? with lots of tv screens...

It looked like they were having a full rehersal earlier on, Anne, Dom, Sara & the sports fella (Rob?) were all there. It looks as if Anne & Dom will be perched on stools behind that strange desk

All I can say is: WOW.

Loving the new look set already - what a nice surprise to come home to after a hard weekend's work!

Yes - with Delia Smith.....

Here's a closeup of Dom at the new desk from the EMT Presenters page:

It would also seem that they will use the "normal" regional titles, not the LDN styled ones, going by whats on the left hand projector.
