The One Show with Adrian Chiles and Nadia Sawalha

I'm sure Anna Ford has been known to sign off "from all of us on the One have a very good afternoon, now we join our news teams..." I've definitely heard "the six" referred to in such sign offs.

Didn't realise there was a second TV Studio at the mailbox - I was under the impression the only TV Studio there is the Midlands Today studio. Can Mr Taylor or someone else enlighten us?!

It's more of a bit at the end of the newsroom, so not really a studio in the normal sense.

So By the sounds of the press release we will still have the "6^ every evening during the trial anyway.....

I thought the whole idea was a new way of doing the news???

Surely people will just turn over at 7pm to Emmerdale on ITV1??? Especially seeing they had probably just watched a whole hour of news

But surely it is a different place to the Midlands Today studio?

They would not be able to run 2 programmes at more or less the same time otherwise!

From the recent thread discussing the recent election & the Network Politics Show recently coming from Brum, at the same time as the regional one, wasn't it mentioned that they were using 2 galleries too?

I thought that thread reckoned they used one gallery, and fed its output to London where it was put on the sustaining feed, and unusually the London region opted out of Birmingham's output for its regional bit.

It seems that THE ONE SHOW will air 6.55 -7.25pm from Monday 14 August through to Friday 8 September

Nadia Sawalha will be co-presenting with Adrian Chiles on The One Show.

Nadia , oh dear , but then it could've been an even worse presenter from the BBC news; even so that presenter only just shades out Nadia for the I factor.

Still I can't judge the show until I have seen the people who are reporting on it. They may be some of the muppets from the six or N24 or some of the lesser talents from the regional newses. It's a case of wait and see.


And there's not long to go to find out just what this show is about.

I = irritating

If you read the press release on Nadia being the second presenter it says ...
Other popular BBC faces signed up to work as reporters on The One Show include natural history presenter Kate Humble, history presenter Dan Snow and undercover journalist Anna Adams.
So you know who most of them are ... there are some others but I am sworn to secrecy
As for the studio - anyone who has visited the Mailbox recently will probably have seen it!

6:55pm start time?

At the moment, do Wales Today / RepScot / Newsline still carry on until virtually 7 o'clock, rather than handing back to "the six" at 6:55?

If so, then does that mean that either (A) "The One Show" will only be in England/Manx/Channel Islands? or (B) the BBC Nations' news programmes will concede to be that little bit shorter. I image that scenario (B) would be unpopular with Cardiff/Glasgow/Belfast BBC staff.

Also, the 7:25pm finish time doesn't sit well with the usual neat schedule slots (i.e. everything starting at **:00 or **:30). So would there be the equivalent of the current 6:55pm "six" update, at 7:25-7:30pm (even in Wales/Scotland/NI)?????

I imagine the nation's news programmes will thankfully be cut back by 5 minutes. They can barely justtify 25 minutes, but 30 pushes the limit of "cat stuck up a tree" stories.

The thinking behind a 7:25 finish is presumably to try and hold onto the audience for the next programme as it will start before ?Corrie on ITV.
