Old thread seems to have long gone.......

Interesting appearance by Scotland Today's Vicki Lee. I will never be able to concentrate on her behind the news desk in future.

I love Vicki, that's kinda what I like about everyone at STV north and south, they have a bit of a personality.

Shereen Nanjiani (0:00s and 1:37s) in her very early days of presenting Scotland Today. I remember it well.

Also, a rare glimpse of BBC's Mary Marquis at 1:47s as well.

A DS poster noticed that Scotland Today and North Tonight are both, from the 23rd March, being listed as 'STV News at Six'.

I presume they are remaining seperate programmes.

Good idea? Bad idea?

Well here's hoping, otherwise my username will be both mildly stalkerish AND massively redundant.

Theyre overdue a new look on STV News...

It hasn't even been 3 years since the programmes were relaunched - hardly overdue a new look.

I am sure they will remain separate programmes, but maybe they want to incorporate the STV News brand more.

eh....3 years is a long time in broadcasting land. and stv are famous for their mini-refreshes in between full overhauls.

A revamp may be due in the coming months - I am not too sure about getting rid of the North Tonight/Today name though. I also wonder if it would be snapped up by Tyne Tees and Border TV

Horrendous idea.
Within Scotland (and after all that's who they need to appeal to) the existing brands are too strong and should not be diluted by becoming STV News at Six.

100% agree!

NorthTonight
I'd hate to see the end of North Tonight. It's really developed over the last few years ( not just 'cause of the SMG / STV input ).

When I was the the consultation about Scottish broadcasting, the main area people were pleased with was the micro-regional news that STV were broadcasting, and the general consensus that the STV regional news was far better than the BBC output. ( Far less emphasis on football too! )

A wee problem with the screen on the East opt on tonight's Scotland Today

Did someone forget to hit 'Full Screen'?

Was quickly rectified anyway.
