Sky News

Wonder if the new side panel will make an appearance tonight...?

Also, hint from Martin over a dot com refresh..maybe?

It appears so. They've just replaced the white with black.

Dermot and Anna Jones staying on until 2pm by the looks, despite the EPG saying JT and Anna Botting would be taking over from 1pm.

I would presume that JT and Anna will come on at 2 and stay on-air until 7- 5 hours per presenting team

JT and Anna Botting now on air.

Nice touch with JT walking from outside in to the set itself to talk to Adam.

Superb walk around with JT.

Really interesting explanation from Adam about why Sky chose to have such a tight, compact studio. Great stuff from Sky today.

The walk around/chat with Adam was great, shame about the picture/audio quality issues (unless that's a problem at my end?).

Anyway the coverage seems to be picking up a bit now, earlier on it was a bit pedestrian.

Really is a massive day for Adam and for Sky News as a whole. Nice to see all the big name presenters involved, particularly Anna Jones. Hopefully Kay Burley will be in a sensible mood later on and ask some good questions!

Anna will be behind the scenes as the media centre after the break.

A random aside but here is a compilation of some recent TOTH v/os by Bruce Hammal.

Not sure when Sky switched to using a more violent version of the "swoosh" noise just before the pan & v/o.

I hope Sky News change to their new logo tonight at 7pm before the debate. It would be very odd to have the old logo and new logo together

does anyone else think the presenter pairings today could be a possible tester for any future schedule changes if any were to happen? If they are, I think they would work well.
