Tonight's 10 finished with a montage of of pictures of the British army's time in Afghanistan, and a mix of the BBC News theme I've not heard before. Perhaps someone else will be able to get a capture...

Sounds like the 'Concert Mix' but extended and stronger pips. Lovely piece of music.

Hmm, IMO it's more like the Olympic mix they used at the end of the games but with some of the instruments taken out so it sounds less happy and upbeat.

EDIT: Yes I'm 99.9999% sure it's just the Olympic mix with fewer instruments in it, listening to it again. In fact, here's an audio comparison - this mix is in the left ear and a rough cut of the Olympic mix to match is in the right.

They mean that the warm weather was news worthy, the weather presenter came into studio to discuss it and because there wasn't enough time to get back to the balcony the weather presenter presented the weather from the catwalk like they do on the 1,5 and 10.

Bit of a wobbly on the News Channel this morning - went into London's regional opt instead of beginning at 8:27 this morning and crashed back into the News Channel at 8:29 mid interview with Jenny Hill in Berlin. Neither of the presenters seem to have been aware of this.

Is there any news on when the new Victoria Derbyshire show is due to start on the News channel?

She has mentioned very recently that it will start in January.

She has tweeted that it could be February or March.

BBC mid-term election coverage under way with Jon Sopel & Katty Kay in Washington studio - now in HD! Rajesh is in London, with a rendering of Studio B, which looks so much better than the BBC News at Nine & Newswatch virtual sets. Why don't they use this template in future?

That looks more fake than the nine to me.
