Ever? Woop!


Obviously not...

To be honest R.E. the new graphic, I am not really a sports person, but the new graphic means nothing whatsoever to me. I can gather it's talking about tennis but not much else.... Surely graphics should at least mean something to the average viewer....

Looks like they are going to use pre-recorded bulletins tonight, the 1am bulletin is a rerun of the 12am, with the SD version going out on HD.

I meant it was my last contribution regarding the new sports graphics. Apologies if it has caused some misunderstanding.

Greg Milam moving to LA to set up a new West Coast bureau,

Also interesting video on the Sky News homepage of Jeremy Thompson previewing what is coming up on Sky News at 5 in front of a rather dodgy looking CSO.

The same backdrop was used for the LIVE DESK.

They are revamping so much : Website, Apps and now the JCDecaux screens, but not the IMO most essential thing: The onscreen graphics.

Is the Live Desk still airing? I thought it got replaced by generic Sky News?

No , the last LIVE DESK was aired on April 7, 2011. But the LIVE DESK had the same backdrop as we could see in this video. This is why I wrote "WAS".

OK, calm down, I just mis-read your original post. I thought they might have resurrected the Live Desk without me realising which is odd as I tend to watch that hour.

All right. The Live Desk also had its own theme, which was axed as well.

Why do you think they need revamping?
