Sky News: Presentation Discussion

Is it normal for there to be no subtitles at this time? I noticed that the State of Emergency overnights didn't have subtitles last week either.

But the sports presentation is not in the same building.

Does anyone else find the side bar during the Sports Updates annoying, distracting and wholly unnecessary?

No, I think it's a nice addition!

The amount of times I've walked into shops and business places and thought they had SSN on, which I guess is the point. Can't decide if it will be confusing casual viewers into channel hopping or the sort of thing 99% won't give a second look at.

Last I heard Studio B was converted into temporary office space. This could have all changed now with the area Five News occupied being freed up.

I am always wondering what happens to all the onscreen furniture which is sorted out (e.g. now the newswall or the former globe construction) . Is it somewhere else in use or stored or scrapped)

Technical equipment is either reused or sold. Studio furinture is often not what it looks. For example, this 'One Show' sofa:

The seat covered in 'hideously green fabric' is not a proper sofa.

(I can't find the pic I've seen: but it's nothing more than a basic construction with fabric stretched and stapled to the back of a wooden frame)

It's not the sort of thing you'd have in your own home: unless you only wanted short-term uninvited guests with a fetish for Asda colours who would feel compelled to leave after a 3 minute chat.

Cool, thank you!

It is in the same building.

I thought It would be at Sky Studios?
