For Eamonn's last Sunrise they showed some openings of sunrise from over the years, some snippets of political interviews, the time he walked in front of the weather screen mid broadcast, messages from Jeff Stelling and Sir Alex Ferguson

Jacquie made him a lemon drizzle cake and he got a goodbye Eamonn cake in sky news logo colours

For anyone who can't see the facebook video he said he will miss the breaking news the most and not being part of it before joking I will take some time off and then who knows I might be tempted back - i'd do 6 in the evening & he said he gets in at 2:30am - much earlier than I thought he did

I can remember watching that new look in 2005, time has flown by.

I wonder if Sky would ever snatch Piers Morgan?

Is this Jeremy Thompson's final week in the studio before heading off to America for the election?

Sky Sports news is on International Stream right now, isn't there a debate?

Now we have a blank white screen with Skynews.com logo and Sky news logo.

Sky News UK and International (Europe feed) have the debate with graphics. The Sky News YouTube stream that I'm streaming in the UK is using the US TV Pool feed of the debate.

US TV Pool now with the single camera on Youtube here too.

I yearn for the days where IE, UK and International feeds online had the same as the TV output before they replaced them with a single Youtube feed.

This was only for the presidential debate - everything back to normal now. We did not have the rights to show the broadcast feed of the final debate on digital platforms as it was being aired - but the single camera feed was made available instead.

Because our YouTube stream/website isn't geoblocked, this prevents cord-cutters in the US from using our page to get full access to the debate.

Sometimes there are editorial decisions taken to show a different feed!

Speaking of geoblocking, I believe Youtube broadcast is geoblocked in some countries, in particular Russia. Is there any special reason behind this?

It's also blocked for those in Canada for some reason.
