There's a BBC News Special on now. They completely cocked up the headline sequence displaying a bbc news 24 caption during it. Someone get ready to capture closing titles.

I've already captured them, but I'll record them tonight to see if they're any longer.

I saw the cockup when i was watching BBC World via Media Player it looked stupid to have a BBC News 24 logo and caption on BBC World but I guess BBC World viewers are used to it by now!

Short end titles again.

They've been using the short end titles on every BBC News Special over the last couple of weeks. I think they will continue with that one.
