It sounded like the intro was pre-recorded, because it cut straight to Mark.


It did sound pre-recorded...especially when he said "I'll do that one more time", as if the version we heard wasn't even the right one! Confused

There was a similar dodgy intro tonight on the ITV News at Ten

It seems to me that they are working with limited titles for example it seems they can't alter the spacing of the bongs and the soundbites have to be really short

Trevor confirmed the ITV News at Nine

ITV will now have to re-edit their promos for ITV programmes!!

The ITV News website hasn't updated programme listings for months. John Suchet is still listed as Lunchtime News host, while Katie Derham is down as the Weekend News host.

I guess Mary Nightingale will front the Weekend Bulletins throughout the conflict. ITV have no regular Weekend presenter now, and with John Suchet doing News at Nine/Ten every night, and all three official weekend news hosts (James Mates, Andrea Catherwood and Bill Neely) in the gulf, she is the only real option.

Digital Spy reports that the ITV Evening News is being extended to run from 6-7pm, with just a 10-minute segment for Regional News.

Are daytime ITV News bulletins being extended at all?

Are the morning updates still done standing up?

Also the split screen graphics just on the ITV News graphic still had the spinning globe but was a light blue and the colours sort of swished. Is this a clue to the new programme at 9?

John Suchet was just on ITV1 with an ITV News Report

Has the war started then, or just a reminder about nine
