With World News simulcasting the News channel in N6, what's going to happen about the Ten tonight?


They're coming from N8 now between 21:30 and 22:00

Yes, Edit, quite a slick change over between the N6 and N8 galleries but the News channel graphics did go into a spasm.

Kasia Madera now on air with Sue Thearle from N8. I would assume she was the scheduled World presenter tonight before World simulcasted the News channel.

Understandably most if not all the news channel's are running/rolling with this terrible story non stop.

Does anyone know which news agency was the first to break the story?


The first to break it was The Associated Press, as well as CBS News and its New York affiliate, WCBS-TV

News channel taking press statement and not the ten having said just minutes before they would break for the ten.

Complete with a special sting I've never seen before (well, on the News channel anyway).

I take it that the graphics are being controlled from N8 for the News channel on the emergency mixer?

Edit, Gavin Grey has now joined Kasia Madera in N8.

Gavin Grey now back in N6. Lots of studio hopping tonight.

Edit @22:58, Kasia Madera is now in N6 with Gavin Grey.

Is there any reason the pair couldn't of remained in N8 this evening?

Live at five with Jeremy
Most surprisingly Jeremy Paxman presenting Newsnight on a Friday... probably been called in to cover the shootings.

What did the BBC News at Ten do (as I was watching World/News channel simulcast at the time)?

Absolutely dreadful news today, I think everyone would agree. Sad

The BBC News at Ten ended with "There's more coverage on tonight's events on the BBC News Channel but now, time for the news where you are" or something to that effect.

OK. Thanks for that.

As I said earlier, lots of studio hopping tonight. Is there any reason why Gavin and Kasia couldn't of remained in N8 at 10pm, instead of all the (seemingly) silly studio hopping that's been happening.
