There's also Studio C, which is a small CSO set with one camera and sometimes used for down the line interviews or news when Studio B is being set up for another programme, usually Thursday evenings before The View.

Looks like BBC Newsline isn't going to rebrand anytime soon.
They are still stuck with the 2013 graphics.

The fact that they have not yet updated their lower-thirds and titles does not mean it won't happen any time soon.

In other BBC NI news/current affairs-related matters, it looks like 'The View' has got a new virtual set: INFO HERE.

If their titles were updated it’ll probably be a leaf out of Wales today’s book, we’ve seen the newsline logo in reith and the bbc news ni logo is also Reithed

The View looks to still be using those awful SD titles, surely they could finally update it to HD if they are changing the set? The DOG also needs updated to HD as well.

They also seem to love that green screen as Sport used to use it, then Weather and now The View. Can't say I'm a fan of it, it just looks so outdated, it would have looked great in the 90's or 00's, but we're approaching 2020, it comes across as very naff.

I was rather enjoying seeing the new weather graphics for the first time this evening until the weather forecaster on duty tonight made a big error about the RWC match between Japan & Ireland by saying it was going to be held on Sunday morning rather than tomorrow morning. She then proceeded to show the weather maps which were apparently for Sunday instead of the match for tomorrow. I had a good laugh when I saw that happen tonight. Also the last few seconds of tonight's bulletin were abruptly cut off the air to go a BBC One NI trailer straight away just at the beginning of the closing theme.

Still no Reith for Newsline... will we get it before the end of the year?

Arguably, it's only worth commenting when there is a change rather than all the days that there isn't.

If BBC NI have a graphic team they’d probably make the new titles with reith if there is one that is

Reith has now launched on Newsline, with a DOG on the top right now. Do we really need it?

Not really, shame the titles and endboard aren’t still Reithed

It's so faint that I'm not sure it's worth complaining about
