how hard would it have been to get LDN or Manchester to do the morning update on BBC1.... seems that they could have done this, and it would have saved embarassment, and we would have all got excited.....
It's not part of the contingency deal ! And for a 60" bulletin it's a bit of an extravagance.
Yeah I didnt think of that.... even over a still of an ident (capoiera?) would have been acceptable. Talking of which, I havent seen capoiera for a while
All I can say is - well done Bill & Sian. A fantastic job as usual, under what seem to be very difficult circumstances. More confirmation in my mind that they are the very best that BBC News have to offer.
Have they gone home now? Who's presenting on News 24 and where?
