"5Love", were they playing tennis?

Think this might have been due to them becoming out of sync, when I last heard the thunderclaps yesterday morning, it was a good 3/4 seconds ahead of the story changing.

Still baffles me someone at BBC News thinks these titles and endboard look good, though their no frills nature does means they can be updated for a specific story.

It is indeed simple. And it means we’re able to now update the titles for big stories quickly.

A little flourish.

I think, on balance, I’d prefer something that looks polished, professional and befitting a major international broadcaster than have something customisable that looks like this dog’s breakfast.

And no world today on the studio screens today. Just the generic BBC News one.

Is this permanent or just because of today's news? Does seem a bit strange if it's because of the news? Or some tech issues maybe?

Who knows what's the thoughts behind any pres decisions on BBC News

Yeah I'm sorry, but just having an alpha channel enables something to easily have the imagery updated behind it. The actual quality of the graphics on top doesn't need to be paired back like this. Unless all the graphic elements are being live rendered for some reason, you could, for example, do exactly the same thing with the old World Today / Regional News style of graphics, and just have the same footage playing back in the background.

Even if you have the text live generated to enable changes to the endboard, you could still have a much more sophisticated video sandwidged between it and the footage in the background.

But he does say that next week, we'll be seeing smoother cut aways from the weather bulletins at the end of the News at Ten to Newsnight.

Tonight, after the end of a live OB on the Ten we got that sting with Mishal Husain’s voice saying “this programme continues on BBC One” before cutting into the new breakfiller that was introduced last week, until they were ready to join Newsnight.

Out of interest, did the breakfiller have the 'wooshes a thunderclaps' with the story changes? It kind of feels like in this present environment the kind of thing they could just completely abandon if it creates the slightest friction with implementation. But it's a nice touch.
