Do BBC World newsreaders have a special way to watch BBC World in their homes?
It must be frustrating if they can't see the channel they are a face of...?

Im sure if they wanted to they could go the extra route and use a multisat dish, or setup another dish and use a freesat receiver to tune into the FTA frequency BBC WN broadcasts in.

Do you really think they'd want to watch it at home? Don't you think they like getting home and switching off from work like normal people?

Back in the day, I used to be able to pick up BBC World (as was) using my old analogue Sky STB/dish which was pointing at 19.2E. I've long since removed the STB and the channel will be digital and probably scrambled by now.

Some TV presenters like to collect their work and presumably recording the off-air output is part of that as part of their portfolio. It's obvious that most don't get any copies of their work that went out live, Greg Scott for example seems to have made his own recordings from his time on Quizmania and some other stuff he's done.
So it's not actually so daft of a question if you think a bit wider. But otherwise it does seem a tad unusual to work at BBC World and then want to go home and watch somebody else do something you've just spend the last four hours doing... I used to work in computer repair 8hrs a day and my home computer never went on until either the weekend or a day I wasn't working...
Anyway I think World is still on 19.2 degrees East, FTA apparently. Not sure if you can add it as "Other Channels" on a Sky box, I presume so if you're lucky enough to have a motorised dish?

When on screen talent want copies of their work for showreels they'll just get them from work.
It's easy these days as everything is accessible on their desktop. BBC News has a production/storage system called Jupiter and everyone in the BBC has access to recordings of all BBC output going back at least a year.
When I worked in news, journalists would often ask for help raking out old reports for showreels. We used to charge of course, a nice bottle of red was the going-rate
I suspect they will still do as not everything is easy to find and they're either too busy/not technically adept enough/too lazy
I don't think any news presenter or reporter will record their own stuff at home and edit that into their showreel.
A freelancer like Greg won't have access to the archive of the companies he works for like a news presenter who sits at a desk in a newsroom.
Something like Quizmania won't really have an archive either. They'd likely record their output for reviewing so it's either a case of grabbing copies of relevant bits of that dubbed off or recording at home.
