With quite a few set changes on TV (Sky NEWS, CBBC). Which programmes do you think need a revamp and which programmes have had one but have changed for the worst?

Sky News and it will keep getting worse!

The current look of Central News (West) is absolutely bleeping awful!

That tiny little broom cupboard of a set is pathetic; The spinning Carlton star is annoying; And the poor presenter is always alone (except when the sports presenter turns up for a small part of the 18:00 programme).

And the music is crap too!

I actually think that Channel 5 News desperately need a makeover. The set is starting to look really dated, and unclean. White just doesn't work well on the TV. It is so unimaginative, and as for that analogue clock, it's just sooo dated.

Please please please Channel 5 go back into your newsroom (if it's still there)

I'm starting to like 5 News again, it's just the floor of the studio which looks wrong.

Oh and another thing about 5 News, since when did they start playing dance music in the background during the sport ?

I think the new sport roundup works really well, it's like a news bulletin within the news.

I wasn't aware Sky News had relaunched yet.
How can you judge something you've never even seen?
