Interesting, I thought they might not continue with the daily business show - I guess this means Boulton isn't getting the 7pm slot. Unless there is going to be a wider schedule rethink of course.

I wonder if 6pm slot is going to be shaken up? Make it compete more against other News channels

I thought the name Boulton&Co will be completely scrapped due to the fact that Adam isn't Political Editor anymore.

Has anyone come across Ian King? Any idea what he is like as a presenter?


In the early day's of Jeff Randall live it was on once a week(Monday) and Ian King was a regular sidekick he was working for
The Sun at the time. He was quite good as a commentator-only time will tell if he will be a good presenter

Do Sky News make any use of the new Newswall? It may just be when I tune in, but the only time I see it used it when the camera just points at it from the desk. Is it utilised for stood-pres?

BTW, came across this recent Behind the Scenes of the paper review showing the iPad in use from the presenters perspective.

They seem to use a good bit during the day - quite effectively as well. There was some great 'info graphics' on the big screen for the floods coverage last week.

More worryingly, can you imagine if the presenters kept fluffing their line, and they needed multiple takes? Shocked

Incredibly cringe-worthy.
