Just got a report on now on the history of Sky News and the move..by Dame Kay..


Tell us more.

I only caught it part way through, but Kay was strolling around the new Sky News Centre talking about the new look and the new lineup, and Nick Pollard was talking about what they're trying to do.

James Rubin and Eammon Holmes also spoke about their new programmes.

If Sky News go W/S, I hope they frame the shot with height like they have done for 4:3, for me that is the most annoying thing of W/S

They are going Widescreen! No Ifs or buts. I reckon five news is how you will get the framing, but obviously it will have 2 presenters and the newswall visible...

If its played again and someone could get some caps or a vid, that would be great!

I tried to capture but got no sound, so can someone have a go themselves.

I will post images, but apart from some interesting graphic hints, there isnt much thats new...

Presumably given they're spending all this money they'll find the cash required to keep the ticker going 24 hours a day. Can't cost too much can it? The current "email online active" static is strangely irritating.
