I did not say that at all, c@t. I said so what if it is fake? It doesn't look crap.
You don't have to be miserable just because News 24 is going to overtake our favourite Early-Learning Centre news channel.

SteveL - RE: the N9 fake backdrop. Are you saying that some element of BBC News presentation doesn't matter? God lord. I never thought I'd see the day.
I was pointing out that it looks crap, Steve. I know BBC News can do no wrong, but since when has it mattered to people on here whether 99.9% of the general viewing public would notice?

I'm not remotely miserable, and I think the chances of it "overtaking" Sky News in any respect, given the minimal presenter changes, remain pretty slim.
That said, I am going to actually wait until I have seen the bloody thing in action before making any sort of fair judgement on it, unlike just about every other contributor to this thread.
I don't care whether the N9 background is fake or not, in fact I don't really care what it looks like at all, I'm just saying that in my opinion shooting in N9 from World's closing shot angle makes the newsroom look flat, squashed up and frankly a bit silly.

even Gate 24 has got a black and orange/gold ident (along with the BBC World sting nicked from the break fillers)

Em sorry to burst your bubble but it's had that ident for a long long time.

But as its temporary, does it really matter? It can look as silly as you like.. its only happening for a day or so and obviously people will not be fooled that its the World set and World viewers will simply recognise it as the hardtalk set.
Sky News spent a month or so in a very odd looking set before the newswall rebuild.. nobody moaned then that it was silly. It was trying to look like the old set but looked like a tacky plastic model of it. With the News24 CSO you could be fooled at the best of times, the public would not even realise its a different set.

How many current BBC News programes have orange and balck together in there titles. BBC 4 News , Hard Talk, BBC World filler (parts) and there is many more like Asia Today etc. It's the start of a whole new era for BBC News except with out it all happening at once so it isn't that noticable to viewers.

Does it really matter? You can see from the caps that on all the background screens the image is exactly the same.

'Normal' viewers don't tend to even notice the studio, they're hardly going to notice (or care) if the background is fake.
well judging by these caps i reckon the national newsroom suits bbc world to the ground!!! especially the titles on the large screen. i would love to see what bbc four news looks like from this studio

It does seem an odd choice to shoot from that last angle. It just makes the World newsroom (and the non-existent national one) look entirely fake, rather than just a little bit.
Bloody awful.

Plus Reporters, This Week (well, blue and black, but it follows the same format), and the Iraq war titles. Although, Hard Talk and Asia Today are a somewhat tenuous link, as they came in with the corporate look in 2000. But, I suppose the potential has always been there.
