Kay was very shaken and upset after her performance then. She did have a very nasty fall though, at least it didnt happen live. She got 15.5, currently bottom.


My God. She was really shaken on the programme. It really seems to have knocked her confidence. If she was like that on Sky News she'd be sacked! Rolling Eyes


Yeah but if I were Kay I would have told Frank where he could stick his move. How she went out there with him doing that move after a fall like that I'll never know. I would not be able to trust him



Hmmmm........I remember what happened the last time Kay told a bloke named "Frank" what to do...........and I think bruises were (allegedly) involved then too!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, but not on Kay's part, wasn't she the one dishing the shiners out?!!

Regarding the re-vamped Sky News coming in a few weeks, the Sky News on screen logo looks set to become a tower, with straps using a chunkier "Impact" style of font. More gradients rather than solid colours being used too. But this is all early stages so anything could happen.

This tower, will it include a clock, Live BUG, and Web Address, or will it be done in a different way.

The Sky News logo looks to be staying read, but certainly looks as though yellow is to be the colour of Breaking News.

Martin really like these, they are really very good.

Slightly dismayed that they will be going back to a tower, althoguh traditionally they have been very good, i.e. not too intrusive.

rts, will they use the red logo or white on screen.

and whats the thinking behind yellow for breaing news? I know their have been studies and everything but why have sky done it when they have become known for red news-wall, and straps?

I hope they are something like martin's

It's a bit Fox News like. White and red, but instead Sky & News in the red box being side-by-side, they're on top of eachother. But I do stress, this is early stages. Anything could ultimately happen.

Those are great, Martin. But I doubt the real ones will be anywhere near as classy, or fit in as nicely with the other graphics....
