Llewella said there would be a new studio for tonights news at six! Does this mean that East is moving in tonight then, from Birmingham?

On Friday they showed us the where they will be broadcasting from: the reception area. Apparently the normal studio is having a makeover and will be out of action for a few weeks, during which time they will present from the reception and occasionally the garden.
On Friday they were just installing the lighting and electrics to the 'studio'.

Re: CNeast relocating from Nottingham to Birmingham...

I believe that the the CNwest/CiTV studio and the CSO studio are the only studios in the relatively small Gas Street (Birmingham) building at all, and there's no suitable space elswhere in the building to become a studio, other than the reception area (unless they lose some of, say, the newsroom, or whatever).

So, I wonder if the reception area will be made "studio capable" in more than just a temporary way, so that ultimately, CNwest can come from there permenantly, and CNeast from the actual "proper" studio? (Or vice versa)

I doubt that CNeast are moving today, as I'm sure that the final Nottingham-based 1800 and 2250 editions would mention the move on-air.
