They also didn’t run titles after the headlines they just played the breaking graphic and went straight to the btp statement.

Were those graphics just used to describe exams new? I’ve never seen them before

Think it's the first time I've seen it but it definitely doesn't look needed. Surely Sophie is articulating the story well enough without her lines having to appear in the middle of the screen?

I agree, the second one that came up didn’t even match what sophie was saying!

And that sentence in your caption makes no sense to me whatsoever. Bit amateur looking for the BBC's flagship bulletin, hopefully it won't be used again.

You’re right I never even noticed that, it makes no sense at all. It looks like they tried to do what itv done but IMO there’s actually worked quite well.

They did spend a full 20 mins on the exam results

The “Scottish Rail Crash” as it was called, just one day after it happened relegated to 2 mins at 22 past the hour

Pointless. Recapping the top story they've just spent more than 15 minutes going on about, with the coming up story literally being the next story in the running order. Plus a preview of what's coming up in the regions in about 5 minutes....

Took the mick at either how much they spent covering England exams or how little they took covering Scottish exam results the other day.

I assume the main VT by Cliff Richard fan Dan Johnson didn’t arrive in time as they started on lives from NI and Wales and then came back to exams after an economics piece.

Does anybody know why the Oxford region counts as South Today? It looks closer to Points West or Midlands Today! When you see the weather map on South Today you can’t help but wonder why Oxford is on there as it is so high up.
