On a presenter related note, Radio Times have uploaded some Royal Wedding themed 'Top Trump' cards comparing the main presenters covering the wedding. I particularly like Kay Burley's card, a likeability of 3/100 and the quote "welcome to the wedding of Kate Thornton and the artist previously known as Prince" Laughing .

It seems only one person is less likeable than Burley - Piers Morgan gets 0.4/100 Laughing

Too right Piers should be 0.4!

These are brilliant although I fear I may be deemed a freak if I actually tried to get my friends to play this with me.

Is it me, or does the Visions truck they're using look like it's a VT truck hastily thrown into use as a scanner?

Does this mean we officially have a shortage of suitable OB trucks in the country?

Sky News At Five is also live from Buckingham Palace. Sky had a very interesting report on the media presence in Central London this morning, including an interview with Katie Couric from CBS.

Seems all of the main bulletins will be coming from Westminster Abbey/Buckingham Palace etc tonight. BBC News now and ITV News at 6:30 & 10 too...

Had a bit of a walk around the area this evening, very busy now, lots of people camped out and others coming to see what's going on.

Here's that NBC studio in Trafalgar Square:

The studios opposite Buckingham Palace:

On the other side of the Mall, there are some more positions facing the Palace:

Those precariously positioned studios near the Abbey:

The main structure opposite the Abbey (loads of tents in front of it now, hard to walk past it!):
*

The back of that structure...:

...and the trucks beside it:

Finally, Radio 2 have a little bandstand-type stage setup in St James' Park:

To those who have also been down, could you answer me something if you know...

I know the BBC has that bubble studio thing, but who do the other two belong to? These are not joined on to the main green press area. Phillp and Julie were there today, This Morning had a seperete area at Australia gate.

You migh be able to make out Phil and Julie, I'm sure others have better pics.

Looking at the pictures of the green studio block, it looks as if the windows are slanted inwards, is this right?

Seems a bit silly being deeper at the top, as if/when it rains, it'll all be on the glass surely?

I'd guess it's because it would reflect the lights on the ceiling if it was the other way (guessing the reason it's slanted in the first place is to avoid reflections from within the studio).
