Sky News

Hmm, you know what - looking at that, and thinking of the old Sky News studio, it's making me think that maybe one of the things that's wrong with the current set is it's too bright now.

Sky TG24 have a great music and titles package in my opinion (although graphics are excluded from that). Can't see much in the way of video on the net though unfortunately.

You can watch it live here,

The music is very nice from what I remember - exept at the very end it goes into a bit of a cheesy tune. Up until that, it is nice

Set looks lovely though. I feel with the current set for Sky News UK, its just stale - simply because it isn't used. I wish it was used more, I mean, the balcony is only used for half an hour on Sky.com News now - its just all such a waste.

The balcony has an awful on air view though.

The mock-up interactive service in the titles of Mock The Week is actually a recreation of the original Sky News Active service:

Here the mock-up from MTW titles, from Youtube.

LOL Sky.com News online left the sound running past 7:55 (when Sky News TV went to ads) and Paula Middlehurst was clearly heard to swear. At which point they abruptly cut the sound.

Yeh, Paula clearly not happy to be covering another shift.

".....would you like me to say "every 15 minute's" ..........every f***ing 15 minute's"

They never seem to get the ending to Sky.Com News online correct - i remember in the past having a listen to Anna Jones moaning about her car tax going up! lol

OMG, it's nice to hear their presenters have the same opinion about their evening schedule. Paule had her share of bloopers on Sky News, first fixing make up on air then crying and now swearing.

Ashish Joshi presenting overnight tonight.

I dont suppose anyone captured this...I could do with a laugh.
