Same studio as May vs Corbyn in the same building as Sky Sports (and now Studio 6 and the new newsroom)

I believe it's coming from Studio 5 in the studios.

Very minor but during this breaking news about North Korea and USA talks the breaking news strap has gone from the usual Yellow bar with the black box & white text to a white box with black text. I've never seen that before. The name strap Is still wiping in the usual colours.

Problems with the 9pm hour, they played a repeat of the 7pm news with Sam Washington then an abrupt cut in the middle of a report to Sarah Hewson in the Glass Box

Did they change the Youtube stream?

Only goes back till about 8.20pm rather than 4 hours now?

It may have been a temporary YouTube problem or maybe the cleaner unplugged a box that feeds the YouTube stream, in order to, I dunno, vacuum the carpet or something. It's filling back up now so check back at half past midnight and you should have four hours again. In theory. The other live streams for various things seem to be okay and go back four hours.
London Lite and BBI45 gave kudos

Are they still having the same amount of glitches they were a few weeks ago?

I don't often see evening coverage these days, but saw 10 minutes of Ian King Live tonight and it was full of glitches, instead of cutting to an outside source a music and title card played for no apparent reason, and then about 10 seconds later another batch of music played over a conversation with a guest, then they went to markets with the screen graphics not functioning. No music at the end though, seems Ian and the guest found something amusing! Smile

RE: Miami Bridge Collapse

Sky news showing The Pledge and advertisements while BBC NEWS showing press conference. I understand sometimes BBC NEWS may miss some stories due to being with BBC WORLD NEWS but Sky news very poor on this story.

Quite common they miss something on Sunday night more than any other time since there's only half an hour of news between 7.30pm and 10pm.

Just a periodic reminder that this backdrop still looks terrible. It really needs some color to not make it look like something out of Black Mirror.





The full virtual set for Sunrise and such is actually growing on me though.

Why did they revert to that after having that Westminster background, and do they not have access to the live view that the BBC and ITV uses?

What happened to this background? Seem to only have lasted a few weeks. Was much better than the white used now
