It think it's probably we've had exactly the same set and exactly the same titles for over two years now, longer than the whole flags era. Perhaps it's now time it received a freshening up, like the national news has had with its new set.

They're all news programmes aimed at different audiences - BBC1 for the mainstream, BBC4 news will be aimed at upmarket broadsheet readers, BBC3 at young adults (they'd have no chance getting BBC3 approved without news!)
And BBC2 doesn't have that much - only Newsnight, and the afternoon bulletin which is due to move to BBC1 anyway. (Well I suppose there's parliament coverage on BBC2 as well, but even that's being cut back with Despatch Box due for the chop).
I wish everyone would stop clamouring for channel relaunches...
I think News 24 is fine as it is, if you don't find it 'lively' enough its much more likely due to the fact you don't really like watching 24 hour news for long stretches than the set design.
They have some excellent presenters, Chris Eakin, Gavin Esler and Declan Curry are always on good form and provide entertaining adlibs and handovers.
Think of all the new things that have happened to the channel in the past year as well (in no particular order):
- Special events coverage
-- a full election campaign on news24 for the first time
-- special programmes for the conservative leadership contest
-- joint N24/World specials for the world on terrorism
-- 1 hour debates prior to each of the party conferences
- new shows:
-- Book Talk
-- Head to Head
-- Gate 24
-- Business Today
-- The World Today
- new presenters
- a whole range of new astons for breaking news, special events and so on

What more do you want?
I must agree with this post. News 24 is the best in my opinion, some of the presenters are fantastic!!
