Oh dear! That Met Office banner at the bottom of the weather looks awful!

I'm not sure it looks that bad, considering it was only there for thiry seconds at the top of the forecast.


Sky have also began using their election branding today. Interesting they've gone for 'Vote 2017' rather than the 'Decision Time' branding we usually see.

Might it change to Decision Time after the May locals I wonder, have to be clear which one they are meaning. Not that Vote 2017 does either tbh..

The whole weather graphics set needs a refresh which is long overdue.

I guess they will add the polls soon on screen?

No issue with the Met Office banner, it looks fine, the only bad thing about that screenshot is how wonky it is because of the angle!

Decision Time normally is only used in the days leading up to an election, you rarely see it so far in advance.

From tomorrow and through the election period, "All Out Politics" will stay on-air until midday.

Will it also be using any speical titles etc?

You mean AOP? I don't think so.

Is this to point out to the viewers that Sky News is providing the Met Office forecasts people 'trust' because the BBC are coming to the end of the contract?

That image of London as background for Westminister Studio is much more pixelated and lower quality than the one that they used up until now, they appear to have moved the Hands off Big Ben as well, doesn't look good IMHO, old one which I wasn't a fan of looked better.
