The DOG is now top right and the clock (which now shows the date) sits next to the ticker, bottom left.

It's not relevant to the thread, but GMTV were just about to take the feed from ITV2 for I'm A Celebrity because apparently they were talking about being interviewed on GMTV, but ITV2 must have pulled the sound or something and Penny had to apologise and say they couldn't take it. Seems strange how GMTV would actively plug ITV2, when they're losing airtime there, they must be being paid a hell of a lot in advertising revenue by Granada.

No change to the itv news website at www.itv.com/news. Are they going to change this?

Does anyone know where i can find the itv news channel daily listings seem as itv news website removed them about 1 month ago.

First regional opt on GMTV should be any moment now.

I see that the ITV regional news streaming site now has a section for streams of the national news

The new look ITV News even got a plug on GMTV Shocked

Ugh. The new Central News West virtual studio is BAD. And I mean BAD. It makes some of the last ones look brilliant. Granada News's CSO is bad as well. Seriously bodged. If that shot of the ITV Wales News logo on ITV1 Wales is anything to go by, they have seriously f*cked up the regional news looks.

So here's what Central's GMTV bulletin looked like:

Didn't manage to capture Yorkshire. Will have a go at 7:05.

Yes, I didn't realise "Theatre of News" was their phrase; I thought Nicky was just taking the p*ss Wink

I'm not sure the set is worth £1m; in fact the whole thing just reminds me why I never watch ITV - it's all so naff.

As far as HTV Wales was concerned, it looked exactly the same to me - whereas BBC Wales Today had a whole new look Smile

What time are the regional optouts of GMTV? The Radio Times says 6:05, 6:35...

I've always found that interesting, considering I have never ONCE seen a Regional bulletin at 6.05.
Oh, and if you're interested, London Today was still London Today. Same studio, same presenter (Paul Green) same format.

London Today's graphics have changed though, to resemble the new network graphics.
