Quick question: Since when has Washington D.C been 1 hour ahead of London? The clock on the 'Live' graphic is playing up.

SSN wasn't really a drastic change.

It was a change of casing in some areas and some small tweaks to the graphics- the on screen look of SSN is very similar apart from that. The gradual move to lower casing started even before the most recent graphics refresh on SSN.

I'd expect a tweaked TOTH as well - which will probably reference the correct headings on the website unlike the current one which is out of date.

I wondered what happened to studio N6 from TVC. It was just moved on a trailer to Sky studios. Wink

Except the desk that is

It's gone.

Not sure why, it didn't reveal much apart from the newish logo at the end. For some reason it has a French TV station feel to it.

Well this is the end of the Sky News we all have known for many years at 6PM tonight. I think the new studio is ok, I hope the glass box is axed soon. Sure Sky have to use it for another few years to save face.

The website and iPad app now have the new logo. Not much else different.

The webside loads with the new logo, then quickly changes to the existing one. If you press Ctrl+F5 you can see it flick between the logos again. Very Happy

looks like the N6-style studio might be coming today. Hopefully its not boring


From what I understand tonight it will be like this

TODAY
1100 - 1800 - Sky News Center
1800 - 1900 - Filler
1900 - 2100 - Millbank
2100 - 0000 - Glass Box

WEDNESDAY ONWARDS
0000 - 1000 - New Studio
1000 - 1100 - Millbank
1100 - 1830 - Glass Box
1830 - 1900 - City Studio
1900 - 2100 - Millbank
2100 - 0000 - Glass Box

I thought the reason they used the old studio overnight since the glass box studio started was because it's dark and there's nothing happening in Sky Central at night. They'll use the windowless studio overnight surely?

At some point, I'd love to see them promote the sky.news domain name they own - though understand the strong corporate argument for sticking with promotion of a sky.com domain.

"0000 - 1000 - New Studio"
Does that answer your question?
