That's the thing it is Philippa Drew doing the Anglia weather today. So Anglia must have there green screen out of action or something?

Well yes, the regional news studios are having their new sets installed this weekend


Are all reigons getting new sets this weekend then?


Yes that why all the individual regions threads and the ITV rebrand were full of photos of all the regions using temporay set ups. Except London of course who are changing studio so they saw no changes and the Channel Islands didn't have a temporay set up as they got the new studio alongside the old.

I am fully aware of this. I was just referencing the fact that the Anglia Weather presenter came to London to present London weather while the Meridian weather presenter did Anglias. So I would assume that something is happening to Anglias green screen within the studio revamp.

I love the 2D lights Wink That shot helps to show some of the trickery used in the 3D model! Laughing

Nearly every region has 3 the same size, for some reason the 'first generation' (and larger sized) sets have bigger cushions on theirs, and wider desks...

I doubt anything is 'happening' with it, but if they're doing work to the studio then it won't be possible to use it.

Constraining regional names saves time and effort. No more will they have to produce and record different titles for London Today and London Tonight.

I don't recall them ever recording different titles, just changing the text on the template which is all automated workflow anyway, made 120 miles north usually...

Yes, the titles are only made once so the difference it makes is negligible.... although do they do different out-cues for London Today and London Tonight? That will be welcomed by the production team I suspect

I won't miss the accidental "London Today" DOG during London Tonight.
