It was on the BreakFast bulletin.
It even came with a map of the new regions!
I'll give you more information at the 7.55 bulletin.

WOW!
Shots of the new studio!
An Interview with Laurie Mayer!
Shots of the green screen used for the weather!
Shots of the weather presenter and weather map rehearsing!
Information that the London region (shown as 'BBC LONDON')Will also be enhanced next month!

There will be 5 reporters,each covering a different area!
This is great! What do you all think?

I take it there's still no clue about what the London & Home Counties programme will be called or will look like re: studio, title sequence etc?

Also it seems that the South East Today website has launched.

BBC Online - South East Today

The South East Today website looks better than most of the other sub-sites for the regional news programmes. It also looks like they will be extending the design across the other programmes though.

But why is there a webcam of Southampton!? Surely that's South Today... maybe Tunbridge Wells cam is not working yet!?

I wondered that

Also does anyone know if viewers of South Today got a preview of the new programme, as a sizable number of them will get it?

Yes South Today ran the same feature but didn't have a live with Laurie
