Very nice. Indeed, for such a small operation, it looks (from the caps) well done. Will use next opportunity to grab a bulletin.

Although, they just had to use the awful fake newsroom from national, didn't they? I hope this isn't a new policy to be rolled out, I mean Reporting Scotland are doing it too, and it just looks, well, (to use a colloquiallism) mince.

But, all in all, looks very nice.

The 10:25 bulletin will be available online encoded at 256kbs from tommorow on bbc.co.uk/jersey for anyone that wants to see it, I will also be posting some behind the scenes photos of the gallery and studio.

What, that they only *people* who work in it are floating suits? Laughing
And that there are only about three of them? Well, for the Channel Islands, that's about the whole staff, is it not? Laughing

Tell them very good job. What's your job there by the way?

Oh and does this always happen? I'm usually being bored by the HTV weatherman at the time.

Yes, always.

And I'd love to know exactly why.

Anyone in St Helier or Plymouth care to spill the beans?

Oh, goodness! That's tiny! Literally a cupboard! And I bet it showed on screen!

And would that be a really bad health and safety risk? What if the light bulb fell over and set the place on fire? (unlikely). How would the newsreader get out alive??? Shocked

I believe it's the compromise over the "and now the news from around the UK" issue - they can't stop saying it so we get a graphic telling islanders that Spotlight CI is coming up next.
