It would be nice if they uploaded the Wales Today bulletin to their website, but it hasn't been updated in a while...

Well that's a change I wasn't expecting. Certainly different from the previous get up anyway. Not entirely sure about the music....

Newyddion looks very ITV News inspired, I don't know whether it's fair to say it was. It reminds me of cross between SyFy's branding and ITV News though.

Watching Wales Today and from the couple of glimpses of the new set, it does look very nice and much bigger. Seems the small coffee table desk is on the right hand side rather than the left like Studio B. It also looks like four plasmas are used on that side rather than LEDs.

Jamie Owen hasn't done anything other than stand at the moment though.

Edit: Sport time, and oh dear - unnecessary walking.

It all looks pretty nice - apart from the fake newsroom backdrop which looks a bit rubbish.

Thanks for the caps. As a recreation of the London set it's nicely done, but the framing of the shots in front of the video wall looks awful with awkward angles or distant shots of the "big screens" meaning they might as well use a small plasma.

BTW, is the Newyddion video not working?

It's working fine at my end.

I like the set but it does feel very big for a region - I wonder whether they would be better just to use one side for bulletins and then for some other programmes (I don't know what) use the whole thing.

It's been very well done.

I think they could do with making the panel below the wall of plasmas white to break it up a bit. That other half also looks like it should have a sofa but it's missing.

I wonder if it isn't ready or whether it was a later decision to remove it? It looks rather bare with that small coffee table that serves little purpose.

Apart from that, it looks good!

Caps or a video at some point would be excellent, though your reviews so far are great to read through!
