BTW: Asa needs to change the thing on the left now to LDN or London News or something Wink
Obvious request but if anyone can knock up some caps/videos that would be great.

I'll get onto that change now! You'll probably need to re-select it in your Profile when you get a chance.

Cheers, Asa

Jules said Emily Matilis will do the 3:55 bulletin.

Like the way they say what the next few shows on 'BBC London 94.9' will be at then end.

And Groooooovy music!

Nice feature on the Undergrounds 'Lost Property' section,I'd like to see more of that.

One thing that bothers me- WHICH DOLT DECIDED TO NOT CHANGE THE BALLOONS!!!!!!!!!

and the way Jules did a two way with a guest, and then told us that the guest would be on London Live after BBC LDN, with a live shot of the radio studio in the plasma.

The red background is slightly darker than my mock forum's red background, TV Talk.

BTW, what an odd story to begin BBC LDN with - tube dust!

I actually thought it was a really good story for once. It was hugely consumer friendly about the rsik of the dust. Made me think about the health risks of the tube which I have never done before.
BBC London 94.9 must be over the moon with all the plugs.

Loads of screenshots of the main programme now available at:

Overall, it's very good, the music is superb, streets ahead of the old regional news music, but I'm not convinced about all this standing up, the interview seemed particularly odd done this way.

If you're not in LDN, then you're missing out on a treat!

The programme is a vast improvement on anything that been seen before, and the music bed used is superb - although still distinctly corporate.

The new 'red' titles are great and work so much better that the 'old' regional ones (which I never really thought worked that well)


It's a very different approach and style, has a great new presenter in Emily Maitlis - and after just one show, I love it!
