Are all the studios next to each other, or are some of them somewhere else in the tv centre?

N6 is in stage 6 (well actually stage 5 but that doesn't matter...!) - the new bit added on to TV Centre at the front (ie. the News Centre).

N8 and N9 the News24/World studios are in the News Centre I think on the 2nd floor... the main news centre is on 1st floor as is N6.

Studio 7 is the Newsround/newsnight/breakfast studio and is at the other end of TVC from the news centre (it's a long walk believe me!)..!

Nicky Mentioned the 'Frosted' Studio. And somebody else Noticed frosted purple pains in the backround of world. so.......
Why do I get the feeling that they are using BBC News 24's Flags frosted panels. I think I might of caught a glimpse of them yesterday and so they may be adapting them for the BBC World studio.
Does anyone have any screen shots of those panels when on News 24? They were actually quite nice and were used in the soft area.

Something New here on the 17:00 Bullitain. BBC World used the BBC News Headline Bed, with thunder claps.
Also the studio shot behind the presenter looked strangly wide.

Yes, I think the bulletin is coming from the Breakfast news presenter's desk (where Moira sits) as I can see the black leather seat behind Keshini, which I know Moira sits on.

If youve got Quick Time then open that and go to qtv menu and on that you will find BBC World along with other channels.

Ah I have th answer to whether Breakfast went out to BBC World. It didn't. Today, Sian Wiliams presented BBC News instead of Breakfast.
