I've just seen the November highlights promo for BBC Prime on BBC World, and it seems Liquid News will be making an appearance on the channel next month. My question, however, is this: what exactly is Liquid News?

Essentially an entertainment news programme. It is very funny, and I would say satirical. Very informal, nice and original studio, and fronted by Christopher Price.

Others will tell you more I'm sure

It's an entertainment news program on BBC Choice and BBC One.

So is Liquid News going to go out live on BBC Choice and Prime?

BBC Liquid News is a fantastic news programme brought to you by BBC News. The news presentation is completley different to that of BBC News, and it has a more teenage feel to it. All anchors on this programme are extremely funny, and totally take the **** all the time.
The name tags are very funny, for example:

Jerry Springer
Doing his old, tedious and boring show

heehee

I would imagine it would be the (pre-recorded) weekly review on BBC1 that'll be going out on BBC Prime.

Liquid News is a breath of fresh air to television. Presenter
Christopher Price is SO witty and holds the live programme together
brilliantly. No doubt the audience ratings are quite low as it is
shown on BBC Choice which is sad. It well deserves BBC1 or 2.
If you have not yet seen it - Monday to Friday at 7pm. Otherwise
I think one show is screened late night on BBC1 but not sure when.Smile

Yes Liquid have done a deal so it can go out on Prime (and I think BBC America) ... AFAIK they are special versions (but don't quote me on that)
Christopher is very very funny ... in fact the whole Liquid team are great.
