"Titan Outdoor announces today that it will be switching news content on its national digital outdoor network of screens, known as Transvision, from the BBC to Sky News. The announcement, which follows a pitch last week, means that Sky News will be seen by more than three million people each week on 17 giant resolution screens located in Network Rail termini across the UK."

That's a coup for Sky News ... the BBC won it from ITN AFAIK now Sky have it.

I hear Steff Gautler presented her last weather report for Sky News today. I thought she was quite good, shame to see her go.

Is this a new break sting then or was there a fault?

No, I think is is either an international breakfiller or breakdown caption.

Its a breakdown slide I guess. For a breakfiller they have the rotating News, Sports and Weather slides.

did anyone else prefer it when they had live shots of the presenters in the TOTH sequence rather than just random images?

That's played as the breakfiller on the Active feed for CBS News.

Did anyone else see the probelms with the weather just before the 4pm TOTH?
The Qatar Airways promo played, then we seen Jo just begining to talk but the picture froze, the "Emmy Winner for Breaking News" slide was put up and you could hear the Qatar Airways promo in audio.
Then you seen a still image of the cricket, before returning to Jo speaking. Then it went straight to Julie & Colin were Julie was laughing, Colin then spoke about what was coming up in the next hour. Quite clearly then the Weather was recorded because Jo could not have gotten off the newswall walkway in about a second surely?
