BBC News (UK) presentation - Reith launch onwards

I wasn't saying it was happening but had very insightful analysis from Philippa and Katty

The BBC News at 9 on BBC Two is now on the iPlayer for 24 hours.

They've got a problem on BBC News that became apparent on air at 4am. Now still playing the last hour with the caption "RECORDED".
Now back live 4.30am.

Blooper on the 4pm intro. Started a bit early and caught Tim congratulating someone and wishing them a good journey! 😜

Handled it like a pro though!

Why - who'd decide to watch that even six hours later?

TV Forumers who can't now use the rota thread to find out who presented it?

They can look at http://localendar.com/public/tvnewsfix

Thank God that’s all he said!

A little nugget of info that I hadn't realised - the reason why we haven't seen Studio A on air in recent times is that some of the Studio E gallery team have been displaced into Gallery A for social distancing reasons

Yes, though the primary reason A isn’t being used is to limit the number of people having to come into the building. The schedule has been designed so that the two News channels (plus BBC London) can be maintained, separately where possible, using the minimum Number of galleries and studios. It was because galley A was empty that autocue control was moved there, rather than A not being used because autocue for E was in there.

Speaking of that why does E require a camera operator? I know in C they’re all encoded in Mozart (assume it’s the same in E) and there’s a panel near the director.

For the bigger programmes they tend to run things more manually.
