The comments about the chatshow style desk are perhaps going a little too far. There is a small desk for one person, with a coffee table like perspex object and a sofa.

I know there is a new desk, but not sure what it will look like, and the carpets are now grey, and not red or dark blue.


it was desrcibed by sky bosses as a chatshow desk

New desk, definitely, and it looks nicer than the older wooden style one.

Martin's pretty much spot-on with that mock. It's certainly going to look very different for Sunrise from now on!

I Really like the sofa but I'm not yet convinced by the lump of a desk at the left end. I fear that it will just be covered up by laptops and usual nonsense and everything will look cluttered.

Hopefully not.......I really hope Sky use their new set well

Very true!!

Do we know yet if Sky will have a tv screen on anything in there for displaying graphics. Something along the lines of the gmtv newsdesk?

The Dark grey rectangle is apparently a 100 inch plasma screen

"This is Sky News with Sarah Hughes".

Presumably the name check is staying then, as they finally got round to adding Sarah Hughes to the list.

Wonder who and what else they might have added?
