looks like the N6-style studio might be coming today. Hopefully its not boring


From what I understand tonight it will be like this

TODAY
1100 - 1800 - Sky News Center
1800 - 1900 - Filler
1900 - 2100 - Millbank
2100 - 0000 - Glass Box

WEDNESDAY ONWARDS
0000 - 1000 - New Studio
1000 - 1100 - Millbank
1100 - 1830 - Glass Box
1830 - 1900 - City Studio
1900 - 2100 - Millbank
2100 - 0000 - Glass Box

I thought the reason they used the old studio overnight since the glass box studio started was because it's dark and there's nothing happening in Sky Central at night. They'll use the windowless studio overnight surely?


If you read my post again you will find that I have said exactly that - overnight is 0000 - 0600 and I have it down as being New Studio.

Just pointing this out quickly, but you said 0000 - 1000 was New Studio

Yes - because Sunrise is coming from there as well.

Looks like there is going to be a segment on the old studio - but it's going to be short - gone to weather at .54 past rather than .56

Edit: there was.

Basically, if your EPG shows logos instead of text names, then the logo has been updated.

Well that send off was, easy work.........

Pretty poor send off of the old studio I thought. Would have been nice to see the jib do a full 360 degree spin of the news centre itself.

Is there any creativity left at Sky News these days or are they secretly embarrassed at the studios they're moving to?
Stuart, BBI45 and watchingtv gave kudos

As predicted then - no doubt the filler hour is being used to switch everything over and get it set up ready to go and decommission the legacy stuff.
