Hmm - not sure. Not great to repeat the same camera move twice back-to-back. They zoom into the presenter, then appear to pull back under the first headline to repeat the same zoom again. Very poor grammar.
The first link also had a bit of a dodgy headline wipe. The animation happens, but you then see the old headline image revealed followed by a cut behind to the new image. Not neat, not slick. Appears to have been fixed in the second clip.
Studio feels a bit big and empty - and the music doesn't do anything for me. Not interesting enough to be distinctive, possibly a bit too subtle and bland - and no real sense of urgency or drama. Headline bed into titles doesn't really work amazingly well either.
Dare I say it - dull?

Thanks to the BBC, it seems every other European news intro sounds like a ticking bomb from a Hollywood movie with an exploding orange.
