Hello,

Does anyone have access to a normal, run of the mill news day news script? For instance the BBC News at Six or a Sky News Newshour type script. It's only because I'd quite like to see how the script looks for presenters and to see how much they get told in regards to direction and content of reports.
If anyone has anything like this, preferably in its original format, please can you post it??


Thanks, Razz

Erm, I don't really know what ENPS is... but autocue version would be quite cool! I did mean paper version though! lol. Embarassed

Sorry, I posted it but realised that you had said the one presenters read from.

I've attached a link to the last (uploaded) script for Radio 4's Six O'Clock bulletin. It is taken from the now defunct Radio Newsroom section of the BBC News website. You can also see scripts from the Today news section and The World at One's news section.

Hope it helps.

They are a fascinating set of videos from C4. Thanks for the link, Hyma.
