Has there always been a promo for Sky News at 9 on Sky 1?
so I did hear the sky news theme on Sky1 just before 9pm, as I was looking at the laptop I just heard the Sky News theme and then the Blue end board.
It sounded like Lorna Dunkley reading the top stories over the blue endboard and Sky News music, then join us now on Sky News for all the latest headlines and Press Preview at half past, Sky News, Sky Channel 501
Kay seems to be either sat really low today, or the camera is pointing downwards at her - the background looks different, although you can still see the bottom of the two vertical screens in the distance.
Not had the proper TOTH bits this afternoon either - just the sting where the Sky News logo flips left and right a few times.
What on earth is the "20/20 News hour?" I didn't realise that Sky News was now using cricket terms to introduce their programmes after an advert break.
Martin Stanford just referred to this news slot as the 20/20 News Hour, instead of saying News Sport and Weather in 20 minutes, every 20 minutes as he usually says.

Yeah, from about a month ago, the tagline (which I think only I've heard Martin and Ashish use) is "this is the 20/20 news hour, where we bring you the news you need to know in 20 minutes, every 20 minutes. Our top story tonight..." As for weekend News, Sport, Weather bulletins they're the same, although Paula hasn't done as many Saturdays as she used to recently.

Some new graphics today when talking about something on the iPad or website, Either a laptop or an iPad appears on the screen with the blue line used for the current promo's half way up it, Next to the iPad or laptop is 2 lines of text, The top 1 says the title of the story and underneath that is more information on that story, The laptop then closes up and flies off the screen under the ticker, The iPad rotates and flies off under the ticker

These skynews bulletins are unclear at the moment.On weekends (Sat-Sun 2-5 pm when paula presents usually) They use always the 15 minutes bulletin !Sometimes she says all news and sports in the next 15 minutes, sometimes she says only these are today´s topstories. Sometimes there is a sports presenter at the ToTH sometimes not! Sometimes there is a voiceover, sometimes not!Sometimes the presenter appears before the top stories sometimes not ! I think they should agree on something !

Ah, I hadn't heard it before last night and thought it was new. I think it's a terrible name - who would come up with something like that? They've spent most of this year trying to be more like BBC News, and now Sky have decided to make Jeremy Thompson talk about showbiz news on Live at Five and named one of their news shows after a type of cricket match. Doesn't really work in my mind.
where can I watch this sky news at nine promo?What do the " changes in camera and backdrop ratio" mean in the headline? Can someone concretize that?
I have no idea where to find the video as I haven't even seen it.
The changes in backdrop ratio is only when Kay Burley is on and using the newsroom background it shows more of the screens than the usual which shows the blue panels. Looks up to camera, camera looks down. As opposed to straight ahead
