I thought that as well!

It does bear a scary likeness to it, I wonder if the back of Central News' desk looks like it been had a brick thrown at it by Trevor McDonald? Wink

what does he mean? there are several areas which we will reveal as central news at 6 evolves ? - more studio, or some chromakey or something else... or is this a ploy to keep us all watching?

Nah, I don't think Dan would lie to us. Wink

The set is certainly a big one, and it wouldn't surprise me at all if there was more to it. I'm sure there is and I hope they let us see it soon.

Central News Week was a bit disappointing. It just used the short titles like on the short bulletins (except with WEEK added to the writing obv).

I think it could have used an abbreviated version of the 'presenters turning around and smiling' segment of the at Six titles. But instead of having the sequence of Bob Warman, then Joanne Malin, then Llewella Bailey, have just Ann Nankivell (Sp?) - seeing as she presents it most weeks.

Also leave out the segment with the shot of the Gas Street building (partly to save time, and partly because the voiceover of 'Live from...' would be redundant I think, cuz I think CNWeek is pre-recorded?)
