That would make more sense to me for UK broadcasting than the frankenstein channel we have now
A 2230 5live simulcast is genius — that’s exactly what should happen.

I actually think that a lot of the changes between the 2008 and 2013 versions are more as a result of moving from SD to HD, including some of the detail and the colours. However the change of Antartica to orange is a sure sign that it is a different render.
But I think the differences in the dark greys and oranges is subtle enough that it can be explained just by being re-rendered out to a different colourspace (Rec. 709 rather than 601)

I struggle to believe this saves money.
Media salaries across the board from tech to production and journalists in the US are far higher than the UK
Wonder what the former team who output the News channel's from London think of this merry crowd

It’s paid for by the (profitable) World operation.

Who would also pay for London based staff. Paying less and returning more profit to the BBC to fund its operations.

Staff on overnights in the UK need to be paid more anyway.
Plus, by having dedicated US coverage, it allows the BBC to leverage their biggest market for more ad revenue. Which is what makes it able to pay for itself!

For a world news channel, it makes sense that the channel "chase the sun" and ensure they have the ability to switch to day shifts in important parts of the world so they have relevant content when audiences are most likely to tune in.

The international feed is still airing "Across the UK" segments during quarter breaks, despite the UK feed is taking Nicky Campbell...

I'm not necessarily sure that this is the case. As was mentioned the other day, the original 2008 edits got a HD airing during the 2012 Olympics when network news was coming from just outside the Olympic Park - and that featured the original colouring. And, in terms of colour differences, there's probably as much (if not more) between the two 2013 versions than between them and their respective 2008 versions.
