Terrible quality on ITV News also.

Regional news on BBC and ITV both been shortened to 15 minutes, with 45-minute national bulletins at 18:00 on BBC1 and 18:15 on ITV.

Awful news.

ITV News just cut off, to a break bumper for 5 seconds. I thought they were going to a break but it doesn't look like it now.

There is an England game tonight, so the ITV regional news was always going to be 15mins today.

Ahh, didn't realise. Normal length ITV News at 18:15. Should have checked further into the EPG.

4G link to New Scotland Yard on Sky News, which moved to Victoria Embankment recently with really poor PQ. Not surprising.

Just turned over to ITV after watching the BBC, their video of the Scotland Yard press conference was awful quality. These 4G video links always seem to be a bit ropey.

Simon and Reeta in E have handed over to Jane Hill in C.
Days like today show the benefits of a well resourced news channel with well known presenters.
ETA: Ben Brown is at the edge of the police cordon.

The BBC are currently showing what I think is the first proper/packaged news report on this (rather than straight rolling news)

Sian Williams in the studio and Matt Barbet in Westminster with Andy Bell on 5 News at 5. Animated 'BREAKING' bug onscreen throughout.
