I don't think adding a comment works. When you click to add it, it just seems to not load.
Seems like next Monday is the day to look out for for the new graphics, I doubt it will be tommorow.

When did the Sky News Live/ Events Channel start on their website?

I assume that if something big happens then Sky News will be live on this.

Yeah, it was on for the Terror Plot a couple of weeks ago.

For anyone that cares about Sky News Au/NZ they have added a horrible wall to the left side of the set... yuck!

This is what it was previously in the rarely seen part of the set.

I think it looks better with the wall.

I have to say I agree, brings opportunity for more angles.

Hmm, the don't usually ever need to show that part where the added wall thing is!
Better example of previous wall thing, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MwR5Mkx1k4 .. the closing pan.

Latest entry from the Viewpoint Blog

Quote:
The changes will be on air "by the end of this month" - so any day now.

Gillian Joseph now presents from 6pm-8pm alongside Jeremy Thompson.

Anna Botting is the new solo presenter of News at Ten.

The new building did cost a lot of money because we believe in having the best state-of-the-art newsroom.

You may not believe it but some viewers like the new 15-minute format.

The Newswall has been used a lot today, it should always be like that.

I don't normally watch Sky News and I have read in this thread that they don't use the newswall much. When I watched a little earlier presenters were doing stories from the newswall alot and just sitting at the desk for when the sports part came up.

Lorna is presenting today's Lunchtime Live . Good to see her do a high-profile show on her own.
