Eamonn just gave a mention to the new set, saying to tune in 6am tomorrow morning to see it for the first time.


Why 6am tomorrow why not 6pm Thursday. As SKY NEWS will be 20 years old at that time.

I believe such questions are not really neccessary. Why not X hour cause _____....? Very Happy

I can't wait to see it, it sounds very exciting.
I wish they would make a decent TOTH with the globes and nice music like before.

Bit difficult for Jeremy Thompson to change studios half way through Live at Five!!

Sounds like a new desk is incoming tomorrow.

Somebody on DS saying that they have seen a pic of John Riley in the new set and it features a "light blue background and grey desk"

I know theres gonna be a lot more than a newsdesk!! But there was some uncertainty as to whether or not the old desk would remain.......

I was hoping that picture may of been on the Independent's online article, but it isn't. I don't suppose theres any chance someone on here bought the Independent yesterday? Very Happy

As for the new desk, I'm glad. Grey aswell! Very modern.

I know - I've been searching high and low for that pic but no luck (yet!)

Surely someone on here is going to have an Independent from yesterday kicking about?!?

Noticed anything different about Sky News over the past few days? Nope, neither had Monkey. But apparently the 24-hour news channel has been broadcasting from a green-screen cupboard for the past few days as it prepares to unleash a new studio set up next week in time for its 20th anniversary. Even though the onscreen look will change little, the studio set-up has been reorganised to make better use of its space with more emphasis being put on the huge "news wall". Monkey, who loves a news channel rejig and has been avidly watching to see the join, hears the new Sky News will be unleashed at 6am tomorrow.

It will be strange without the current desk. I hope the new one is as big as this one.
