The new bed doesn't do anything for me. Not like the old one which was rousing.

The pre TOTH sequence is much improved though.

It might've been a good idea to have a "lighter" bed for use from 0600 to 1600. The current bed works well for Live at Five and News at Ten, but not at all for Sunrise!

Sky hecklers again.

"Sack Kay Burley. Sack Adam Boulton. Sky News is Murdoch lies."

Same guy as Saturday. (sounds like)

Great use of the SkyCopter to show the protesters on the church in Westminster.

How many helicopters are there and who has access to the pictures? Sky obviously have their own and I assume they have exclusive use of the pictures but the BBC also seem to have access to pictures from another helicopter, do Sky have access to this one too?

They didn't last for very long and were not as audible as the last time. Kay handled herself very well once again.

Paul Waugh pointing out how Adam was right in his argument, if not the way he went about it

Whose Jib is in Downing Street? I think the pics from it are pooled.

Wasn't it Chris Skudder on the sport earlier? Now it's Rob Curling. Normally the changeover isn't until 6pm.

World Cup story just getting going I suppose. Do we know who Sky News are sending to cover from S. Africa yet?

Where have the clock and ticker gone? Same place as Sky News Active? Does Sky News Active work on HD?
