Exactly. Been some arguments about if Easter Eggs are essential but that one bit of normality and a brief treat is probably more important than ever.


Not only that, if they're not sold because they're deemed not essential that's quite a lot of food waste when they expire.
Chocolate lasts a long time - I can imagine them having Best Before Dates that are after Easter 2021.

You'd be surprised - I work for a major retailer that has Easter eggs going out of date this July (which came into store this year).

Do news programmes even appear on iPlayer? Those programmes go out of date fast.

Yes - the network bulletins and Breakfast stay on for 24 hours after broadcast. Programmes like Newsnight and Andrew Marr stay on for up to a month.

I was so sure they’d moved to studio C when I saw it. Impressive solution, although Studio E definitely benefits from having more depth in that background.

Its a striking setup. I think it makes Newsnight looks more authoritative.

I did notice one part was still very red I wonder if the bbc will address that as well, but they done a fantastic job with studio e Smile

Where was Helen Willetts doing the weather from at the end of the BBC One news this lunchtime? It didn't look like where it usually comes from.

I'm really missing something here. Only difference I'm spotting are the people.

Look behind the presenter.

It's more obvious in a close up shot of the presenter where previous there was very little purple in shot at all

Very nice touch with the curtain. So they’ve been hiding that up their sleeves all these years then! Worked very well and will be interesting to see it again for its intended use with the other presentation tweaks they’ll have planned.

Also looks like they've put the logo on the "hide the door" screens in front of the gallery, which they did on Marr rather nicely.
