I have to say that, despite the total randomness of broadcasting a news programme from a conservatory, it actually looks pretty good! It kind of reminds me of the time during (I think) the early 90s, when Midlands Today used the glass-walled studio (formerly used by Pebble Mill, Daytime Live etc) - I think it was while they were revamping the main studio then, too.
For those who don't read or didn't this in the Yorkshire and Lincolnshire thread, posted by top insider at Look North Leeds:
"In answer to a previous post, No Look North is not relaunching anytime soon I`m afraid, keep your eye on the Midlands though I`m told the new Midlands Today will be VERY exciting."
Now, I like the sound of it when someone other than me, tvm or the production team at Pebble Mill call it VERY exciting. Very cryptic, but the fact they've moved out of their studio for 5 days does say something...a timescale you'd expect a national programme needed to rebrand, not a regional one. And Nick did say that it will be "glam and glitzy" when it's unveiled on Monday.
what we're going to see on monday, is a *fabulous* new set which reflects that ENERGY which is going through birmingham and the west midlands at the moment.
