Once, on Breakfast with Frost, Sian Williams was presenting the BBC News summary and the background image moved violoently in circles! I felt dizzy!

Yes, I saw the 6.55 shift. Moved sharply to left then after picture inserts was too far right and then after next insert was back in normal space. I think the cameras are controlled by an operator (just one I think - might be wrong) in the news studio itself.

Has the camera ever pointed too far down, and shown the desk and the scripts?

And Sian is back tomorrow evening for the Six O'Clock - jump for joy!!!
JA

I can't wait - check her out at 3.20 on BBC 2 as well!!
Yes, I was surprised, I think the Radio Times said Huw Edwards was doing it tomorrow - obviously not!
I think that Huw Edwards and George Alagiah should be swapped, so George can do the Six, as he is a lot better. Anna Ford used to do the Six aswell, I wonder why they moved her?
Sorry to dissagre, but I think it good how it is, Hugh is better on the 6 and well, i like it as it is that all.

Yeah I think all three main presenters on the Six - Huw, Fiona and Sian should stay as they are - but more Sian (maybe they should introduce a women into the Ten team...!). Anna Ford was moved to One because she was thought to appeal more to the people at home during the day....

In my RT this week it says:
TUES:
6.00 Sian Williams
10.00 Michael Buerk
WED:
6.00 -(but it was Fiona Bruce tonight)
10.00 Michael Buerk
THU
6.00 Huw Edwards
10.00 Peter Sissons
FRI
6.00 Sian Williams
10.00 Peter Sissons
I wonder why they don't put in a presenter for the One
MON-THURS - George Alagiah
FRI - either Fiona Bruce, Sian Williams or Sarah Montague (and if not those - someone bizarre from News 24...like Gavin Esler!)
I really do think Anna Ford should be moved back to the Six O'Clock News - I'd like to see her every night, becuase I can't usually!

Sorry to be controversial, but I don't think that Huw is that good! The 6 O'Clock News should be with Sian and Fiona, and the 10 O'Clock News should be with Jane Hill and that new overnight News 24 presenter woman. Not sure about 1 O'Clock News, perhaps Anna Ford and Sarah Montague.
