I think I said this last time (and no one agreed with me) but I really don't rate Reeta Chakrabarti on the stats. She's a great newsreader but she stumbles her way through the big screen and doesn't seem too sure of what she's saying.

Someone like Emily Maitlis or Christian Fraser is more suited to touch screen. Does Reeta have an autocue? To be fair I'd be impressed if she hasn't.

Has anyone got any intros for the GE results tonight?

Also if anyone wants to watch RTÉ's coverage online. They have a live feed available on Periscope.

Is BBC Wales the only one with a Christmas tree in the studio?

For anyone who hasn't seen it, here's a clip of Sky unveiling the exit poll results:

Nice graphics from LBC.

Considering Newyddion 9 has it's own look nowadays is this the first Reith on S4C. Using caps though for the names.

I think both Welsh broadcasts are using the same studios as 2017. Not sure where their VR studio is, but BBC Wales and S4C sharing the same presenter.

A bit of a clanger on LBC. At the Sunderland count, they went to the Global reporter at the Houghton and Sunderland South count who didn't know she was on-air and was on her phone probably tweeting the result. Pretty good that LBC are also showing reporters in-vision too.

RTÉ's coverage of the count results are being taken from the BBC coverage. Huw's voice was out on RTÉ for a bit when the count was out in Blythe Valley.

This new Election coverage on SkyNews, really is a new era with no Boulton or Burley in the first hour. It's really fresh and new feeling.

RTÉ is using a majorly delayed clean feed of the BBC’s coverage for the constituency declarations.
