Bruce Forsyth leaves Strictly

Claudia Winkleman named as replacement

Seems like the most sensible option. The sexism/ageism row avoided, someone the audience knows and that will move aside when Brucie returns for the specials. I am sure this year will be a trial and...

Really Bad DOGs

Sit-Up TV in Administration

Bid and Price Drop are off air

Looking at the tech specs for Unit11 it's basic but fine. GVG Kayak and 3 Sony SD triax cameras on reasonable peds. Very basic sound and lighting by the look of it.

How does the mix between Pre-recorded and live actually work?

Yes, Countryfile is treated as two recorded items with a live event between them. As it's just a cut it can be done that way, a big entertainment programme like the Lottery require a bit more of...
