S4C Newyddion

Obviously not reading close enough.

Thanks for that!

Who split this thread? Most of the posts should still be in the Wales Today thread.

The first Newyddion 9:

The studio is very Newsnight - but good to see that through the use of colour Newyddion 9 feels quite different to the earlier shorter summaries. Also shows in this era of genericness what people in the nations and regions can do given the chance.

That's the first time its been on S4C Clic, so I wonder if it'll still be one iPlayer as it was when it was BBC Newyddion

It's not on the iPlayer and not listed as going on.

Somebody finally uploaded some bits of Newyddion 9 on YouTube...


I seriously don't know what to say about the music, it is... very, very different.

I am little sad to see it break away a bit from the BBC look.

I quite like the headline bed - not so sold on the theme itself (or the execution of the titles) but it does remind me a bit of the old orchestrial themes of Wales Today back in the 90s.

It's a bit odd. Don't like the opening squares!

Mee too, and one user is right... It reminds me of ITV with too much of SyFy.
Also, too much walking.

It's nice to see a news programme with an old school news theme, but it doesn't fit with the modern titles. The set looks nice purple but the newsreaders are so badly lit. In fact, all the overhead light is bad, too bright for a 9pm programme. It shows the imperfections such as where the black floor meets the set.

Newyddion 9 is a good name for a news programme, pronounced 'Newyddion Naw', and therefore a bit like News Now.
