Coverage of 'abdication announcement'

Last on this, I guess. It was also broadcast live on Dutch national television. The face of the Dutch presenter was priceless when the national anthem started playing.

To an extent. Look North's Olivia Richwald was reporting for network about the M62 hen party bus crash last weekend, but Look North's report was by somebody else completely (who I don't recall seeing before).

Pretty much. There are some network guys lurking about somewhere, and some offices being used for the closure project teams, but otherwise it's a bit of a ghost town around here.

BBC Urdu : Sairbeen

Sairbeen TV programme, now available online

The current Express logo looks tidier than the previous one. Dawn News, the English service that had run till 2010, had been relatively understated and conservative in its use of on screen furniture, and was in many ways a better channel than some...

Boston Marathon 'Explosion'

Though both the CBS Evening News and CBS This Morning are, as a rough trend, improving their ratings over time. Very slowly, but that's a much better position than they were in a couple of years ago.

C4 arguing it should take over from Sky News in the roster

Sky covers the Election night. Channel 4 doesn't. Therefore Sky should broadcast an election debate rather than Ch4.
