Human error, or the machine Columbus.

Well, probably the machine beacuse someone would never let that happen. I wonder what those viewers around the world when they saw BBC Four? Must have been strange!

Are they still doing the 'around the world on BBC World and in the UK on BBC Four' bit at the end?

I think they still are, I have to admit I still prefer watching the 'proper' BBC World News with their wonderful stings and vamps!

I agree! The current BBC World News theme is brilliant. I like it much more than N24 or TWT!

I thought it was not worth starting a new thread so I thought this would fit on this one.

Has anybody seen the trailer on BBC World for the oscars special with Stephen Cole. He does it from the BBC Four news studio with all the world title images in the tv's instead of the usual BBC Four ones.

BTW, did anyone see Click Online, That tech show was in a word, Wicked!

Yes I saw that. If it is a 'News Feature', when will News 24 have their World bulletin? Will it be ditched for Monday?

And as for Click Online, it is good. I only wish News 24 had it all the time like World.

Does anyone have any clips for it as I want to build up my Click Online sub section for WORLDwatch.

Cheers

Yep, it looks like BBC World News is being replaced by Stephen Cole and the BBC News Special on News 24. BBC World are also simulcasting the News Special!
