I've seen Matt Smith presenting Saturday Live a couple of times when Chris Roberts wasn't around too.


On his days off from being Doctor Who is it?

Or introducing ITV4's sports coverage even! Wink

Strange. That programme was filmed in HD. Not sure if that is any relevance. Probably not.

Just looking on the EPG and it's also down for a 5.30am showing on Tuesday morning, which may (or may not) suggest a 6am launch with Eamonn?

Although I know some have suggested the plan was for a Live At 5 launch, we shall see. There is of course the rather essential adding of the channel on the Sky platform that also needs to take place and I don't think many channels are added that early in the morning.

That was last week. I shouldn't think they'll need to pre-record the overnight news now they are in studio B.

I remember in 2007, they played out a documentary from 8:30 till 9:00 when the new graphics launched. So, something could still be happening tomorrow.
