BBC National/News Channel from New Broadcasting House

I don't know, but by about 7pm ET Brian Williams was saying only law enforcement helicopters were permitted.

Brian was the one that said there was a pool one, I'm not sure.

For some reason, I get the feeling that BBCNC gallery only has two types of opening, the regular short ones and the long ones... but they don't have the copy of the opening used by BBCWN. I wish they just ditch the long ones because the video is not in-sync with the music anyways...

Those long titles just don't work how it's still on air in this state, surely someone is seeing this at the beeb

I'm sure they are, but it's not the kind of thing that can be rectified instantly if the titles need to be reanimated, especially as they're not made in house.

I must be the only one who likes the titles being out of sync.

I too really like the titles and music used at the TOTH.

They look fine, and they aren't unsynchronised. The only reason I can think that people are complaining is that they are used to the old titles.

Me too, I don't want them changed. They don't seem at all out of sync to me.

Minutes from a BBC News Planning Meeting...

"Okay, you know what would look really cool... we could hack to bits a perfectly decent set of titles just for the sole purpose of shoehorning in a pointless pan of the newsroom, it would look clunky and we'd probably have to change the music and put some violins or something in... or even better... leave the opening as it is, and use the Newsroom Pan as the End Titles instead."

I know what I would have picked. The BBC Ideas Derpartment strikes again.

But they weren't perfectly decent before - they were awful, and still are on BBC WN. A horrible mess of things flying about at varying speeds that goes on for about twice the length it should. The current titles do away with half of that and work a lot better in my opinion.

I have no problem with the new music, but with the long video it looks so out-of-sync.
