Just curious For viewers in the EU but outside the UK, does your version of SkyNews feature UK ads, the ticker and timepiece?

Sure you know the situation in Ireland, Same Sky News just Irish ads.

I asked that because i watched SkyNews in HK 1 1/2 years ago and the version aired there didn't have the timepiece, ticker and the UK ads.

What was the point of Sky News' Crime Week? It was one of the worst exercises I've ever seen on Sky News and also one of the most pointless. The graphics looked awful, the subjects were boring and tired and old Burley got very comfy with convicted criminals.

Appalling television from Sky News.

They also excelled themselves earlier in the week with a map of the UK showing car crime hotspots. These included Manchester, which had mysteriously moved to the Scottish borders.

Rumours in the Observer that Eamonn is scouting about - looking at other possible contracts - but despite his relative performance, do you think Sky wish to keep him?


No. I hope he goes. Then we can have Steve and Emma for Sunrise. From the shoebox as well not from that cramped old mez/balcony thing.


I was unsure of the new format of Sunrise when it started but I think it works really well when Eamonn is presenting. He adds some humour into things when he is speaking to Jackie or whoever is reviewing the papers. I nearly always watch it as opposed to BBC Breakfast (GMTV has never been an option for me!) However, I find Mark Longhurst quite boring, so I hope Eamonn stays.

So does Eamonn still do sunrise when he's doing his Phillip Schofield relief on This Morning?

So, is it already clear, what Andrew Wilson will be anchoring in London? The bio on the SKY News site says he is returning this summer - so when will he return? Does anyone know if there will be a new show?

I assume he'll be covering for Lorna who'll be going off on maternity leave shortly, if you've noticed the bump Laughing

Eamonn presented Sunrise from the Newsroom instead of the usual set at the top today. But I dont understand why do they have to squeeze at the small corner of the set, the two laptops' screens are clearly overlapping each other when the main desk is just nearby!

Nick Powell looked like he was going to fall off his chair, too.
