BBC Breakfast Studio

OK, My last post before going to Spain. (I'll be still online though)

On BBC Breakfast, they were in the comfy area, and there was what seemed to be a shadow of a blind on the wall. I've never seen it before, and it looked awful.
Is this suppossed to be there, as it was on both sides. It was going into the yellow bit, which looked horrible!!!!!!!

Anyway,
byeeeeeee.

I think it's always been there. I haven't watched Breakfast for ages, but I'm pretty sure it was there the last time I did!

Yep its been on the walls since the launch on October 2nd.

All BBC Newsrooms look rather warm and comfy to sit in.

How deceptive looks can be!! But, I bet they're quite warm due to the lights...

The blind is created by using a 'gobo' in a studio lantern.  Its a circle of metal and looks something like this:

I like how it gives that 'morning sun streaming through the windows' look to the show.  Nice touch, and it breaks up that solid colour they use throughout BBC News.

We once used a coloured star shaped gobo in a school production, i was standing there in the spotlight then this purple star shone on my face, my brother laughed cause i looked silly

And you can buy the book of '101 quality mdta anecdotes' in all good bookshops now, priced £11.99

Note to sensitive mods:  this is a joke rather than an insult.
