Is the sound on Sky News slightly out of sync for anyone. Currently watching on Sky Digital

Andrew Wilson is doing a great job on Afternoon Live today.



What does this kind of post even mean?

Are you a shill for Sky's marketing team?


It's called an opinion. That along with facts help to make up forums, just like this one. Rolling Eyes

Andrew Wilson comes in for alot of stick on this forum and i thought he deserved to get a positive mention for once. He is more suited to that format. The fact that he was U.S correspondent and covers a lot of foreign affairs stuff helped with the stories. Maybe afternoon Live for Andrew on weekends???

Peak of 1.16million for Sky News last night according to the DS forums. Pretty impressive.

I don't care for Andrew much. His interviewing technique is quite poor and I find his delivery wooden. Just my opinion and clearly not one shared by the majority. He's okay for the Sky News Today style stuff I suppose.

Good peak for Sky News last night.

Don't patronise me and then roll your eyes.

Useful opinions are the ones which qualify the praise with a comment like, "he got the most out of his guests" or "he's very knowledgeable on the lead story", or "he handled the breaking news smoothly".

"Doing a great job" means absolutely nothing on a forum here to discuss the detail.

I agree with you on the whole but his performance on AL yesterday was way above his usual boring presenting

I think they'll have to work on the graphics for Sky News HD when it launches. The ones used last night for the Jackson memorial were nice enough, but didn't look right tucked so far into the corner. They would have maybe looked better in the middle.

If anyone didn't see it, they were the standard Sky News style, but mega-tiny.

I thought it was good to see some graphics taking advantage of the full 16:9 screen rather than shoved artificially into the 4:3 safe area. Personally I've always found 4:3 safe graphics to look rather unnatural. I guess it's what you're used to.
