NEWS at TEN - January 2016 Relaunch

Jesus christ, what do you guys have agains Tom Bradby? His delivery is smooth and animated, unlike ITN's wooden line-up (Julie Etchingham).

Sky News 2015 new look

Sorry. Im not a fan of this new look. Its soo...(to me)...not Sky News.


You can't really judge a 'new look' when it hasn't even appeared on screen yet. The studio clearly isn't quite finished so for all we know there could be other elements going in after the floor has been laid.

Maybe, but it is my opinion. Even before the move to the Tesco Extra building, SkyNews seems to have developed into almost a blue version of BBC News in some respects. The spark it used it have is gone IMO. Its unlikely they will be launching new onscreen graphics. And the presenter isnt going to be lying on a wooden floor. And unless they plan on adding colour to the rest of building and staircases, it will still have a beige Tesco Extra backdrop. Maybe they should add shelves and some refrigerated cases. Frozen peas in aisle 3!


They could capitalise on product placement?
Reports could be delivered over a PA system?
The video wall could have a conveyor belt?
