I would like to take this opportunity to inform everyone that I now own a copyright to the term "BBC Brigade" and any slight modifications of it, e.g., BBC brigade, bbc brigade, etc, and therefore shall commence taking royalties in the amount of five quid for every instance of its use. Wink

Furthermore, anyone caught attempting to attribute the origination of the term "BBC Brigade" to themselves shall be subject to a pecuniary penalty of £1 million in accordance with the Copyright Act 1935 Wink

I have also copyrighted the following words:

"Television"
"Forum"
"Hello"
"Goodbye"
"Wales"
"News"
"Ident"


I like Television, and I like to visit this forum where I can say hello to my mates in the Wales thread and talk about news and people's favourite ident.

(So how much do I owe you Philly?) Wink


Actually, you owe the money to me, I'm afraid. The original copyright agreement on these words will have been automatically abrogated not only by the expiration of the original concordat, but also by the supersession of Phileas' Act by the Copyright, Designs And Patents Act 1988. Therefore, I have assumed the copyright on these words in a highly cunning maneouvre.

I'll take a cheque.

Great for a caption contest.

One of the main reasons the cameras are locked off is because they are not remote controlled and also it would play havoc with the cso backgrounds if the cameras moved as the backgrounds would also!

I do hope they sort out the clock on Breakfast though. When you watch it on News 24, they overlay a larger clock onto the Breakfast feed and it looks quite bad:

Perhaps they should just turn News 24's clock off during Breakfast (and just use the one from the Breakfast feed), or at least make it slightly smaller.


Your advice seems to have been taken. The News 24 clock has disappeared this morning.

I've been watching News 24 (Istanbul bombings) and there was a report from a correspondent in a BBC branded studio. I missed the begining and end so I'm not sure where he was reporting from.

I hadn't seen the set/offices before. People were milling about in the background. It wasn't the BBC World set. Colours were dreadful. Lots of beige and deep red.

Is this a preview of the new set design? *prays to god that it isn't*

Did anyone else see this?

Sounds a bit like the Westminster studio to me...

I think it was the Business Centre camera. N24 are using various newsroom cameras at the moment.

So with a little over a week to go I should think the new set is probably nearly complete if not already. Will presenters be rehearsing in the new set..? Some promos will surely also be filmed next week...

When can we expect the BBC to announce the relaunch date offically.?The press release about Simon McCoy probably deliberately made no mention of a relaunch.
