Will the relaunch happen? If not, what are the other dates people may have heard?

Has anyone noticed that the cameras only seem to be doing front shots of the temporary studio now?

Yup - like I said on the forum last night (you heard it here first!) the relaunch is tomorrow at 0600.

Graphics and stuff from 30th.

The old thread seems to have disappeared some time this afternoon, so I guess this would be a good place to continue it!

I also noticed that there are no wide shots in the new temporary studio. My guess is that it's because there isn't actually a set there! I expect there's just a desk, cso screen and a couple of sheets either side for the sport/business backdrops. It certainly looks absolutely awful, and the bad lighting doesn't help. Still, I guess they didn't go to much effort because they knew it was only going to be very temporary.

Mind you, the CNBC temporary set looks pretty bad too, and that's been there 3 months! Wink
