Very rare really for C4 News to have a news report - though they do always have a preview of the bulletin in the late afternoon.

I remember they had a news report when Blunkett left his job (during The Simpsons IIRC).

Interesting to see whether or not ITV News will sell on the Anglia News interview with Paula Clennell that was done last week, or keep it as an exclusive.

As exclusives go, interviewing someone about the murders who now appears to have become a murder victim herself is about as good as it gets.

They called it an "exclusive". I seem to remember Sky doing an interview with this woman as well, she wore a distinctive coat, am I right?

Nothing from ITV News, but Joanna Gosling is live from the scene for News 24 Tonight.


She was there this morning as well. Not perhaps the most obvious choice for an on-location anchor, but she was doing a good job. No stranger to live OBs of course - she did plenty on BBC London.

There was a BBC News Report with George Alagiah in Ipswich at 8 after EastEnders.

And another report with George Alagiah just before the Royal Variety Performance on One.

Does anyone else find it odd that police officers are starting to use the phrase "breaking news"?

Eep. Just saw a rather long 2-way with someone standing in front of a police car with its blue lights flashing.

Aside from the fact that the picture looked abysmal once it had been through the MPEG mangle, has neither the cameraman nor the director heard of photosensitive epilepsy?

Anglia did a very good, live "Anglia Special Edition" presented from Ipswich and Norwich tonight. Think it was from 7.30-8pm

Good to see a strong local effort on their part.

Thought it was surprising that Stewart White was not on-location tonight, but stuck in the studio with Susie Fowler-Watt. Even more strange was the fact that she did a recorded interview in Ipswich earlier in the day, so they obviously sent her down there, then brought her back up. Surely more logical to get her to present the show from there?

IRN used a cut from the murdered woman Paula on the 7pm news.

Part of the interview was shown on More4 News - not sure about C4 News.

It is very strange and ironic, actually upsetting, that a lady was interviewed about the murders, and then days later fell victim to the murderer...
