Sky News presentation - New studio onwards

Another picture from inside the box and seemingly a new partnership of Tom and Sam

So much for the 'insider info' that Sam Washington isn't coming back!

Colour lighting looks a bit different, could have swore that red was in a different place and slightly longer before?

As it looks nothing has changed. The red bar used to be there and the purple colour cast of the white lights as well.

Were we expecting anything to change? I know I wasn’t...

Someone said 16th a couple of pages ago. At minimum I'd expect that lower case logo they accidentally unveiled get properly introduced then.

The YouTube stream opted out of Sportsline for an Ocean Rescue documentary.

It's about FA Cup rights - Sky are using footage from the BBC.

The YouTube stream always goes to a recorded sports bulletin and then cycles through a compilation of random shots related to SkySports

So I assume from that rehearsal image above that the lower thirds / wider graphics package will not be changing?

Correct. Just a logo change, and a few new title cards (like the Ian King Live one from a few weeks back).

And new graphics on the screens in the new studio (that actually look high budget)
