On the subject of the JFK assassination, here's something I came across in the ITN film vault several years ago. Just happened to be lying there so I took a photo!

Some nice behind the scenes at Grays Inn Road mostly ITV News and the ITN News Channel from a lunchtime in 2001.

This was the era where ITV News were in Studio 2 I believe, they currently use Studio 1, which is the green screen studio they used for the 2001 general election coverage.
In 2001, ITN had slightly more TV studios in use than now - today we just have Studios 1, 2 and 6 in operation - there were a few more there in 2001.

Well considering what colour the Queen was wearing, it’s a good thing it wasn’t in the green screen studio era.
Disappointing they didn’t get her to guest present.

Even the most 'hardened' of news reporters and management just seem to just 'melt' in her presence. What a woman.

The Queen and Prince Philip presenting ITV News would have certainly been an interesting watch to say the least.

Considering MPs presenting "the news" was something we never thought we'd see just a few years ago the possibility of William and Kate fronting a news bulletin in the near future doesn't sound that far fetched.

That’s what I think he means.
