How long has Sport been sponsored by NOW TV? They really haven't thought that promo through have they, having to remove the ticker manually for it each time?
Not the first time that's happened. Some financial report sponsorship a while back lost the graphics as well.

Sunrise with Charlotte in the studio and Jeremy in the stadium in Soweto complete with a voiceover saying Sky News with Charlotte Hawkins and Jeremy Thompson in Johannesburg
I see Sky News are advertising the post of Technology Correspondent. That was Niall Patterson's job. He didn't last long as Defence and Security Correspondent and he's only had the Technology role a short while. Also before he was the Defence and Security he was a Political Correspondent with political leanings according to many on this forum at the time. He hasn't lasted long in his jobs to date, I wonder why Sky keep giving him different roles only to demote him months later?
This seems to be a new sting "sports update" which is now showed at the beginning with usual theme music and at the end of each sports bulletin with the old skynews sting.
News Wall getting used a lot today to show weather disruption. Talking of which, every other link is breaking abruptly and having to go back to the studio due to the weather.

Some technical problems at the start of the 22:30 Press Preview, Samantha started reading the top stories in silence, after a long pause someone said technical problems then after a bit we crashed into a report about diamonds
Following the report Samantha apologised for the sounds problems
The balcony with real studio backdrop is now used a lot more for interviews than in the last few years. There are more diferent camera angles e.g the presenter with the big screen behind plus nice promos with the presenters at different studio locations. All this reminds me of the 2006 period. I really enjoy the recent development of skyNEWS.
