So the viewers who want to watch it can watch it in HD?
BBC Parliament has shown Scotland's programme for every General election since 2010 (and possibly before - the /programmes website doesn't go back to 2005), so I'd be surprised if they didn't do it again.

It looks fantastic! Here a few caps. Not the biggest fan of the odd shape of the Millbank studio but it really suits this and the new screens are crisp enough for them to zoom in on the map and point at the small constituencies.

The studio looks fantastic and I prefer it when they do graphics such as these on real screens (so long as they are clear enough to read) instead of virtually

Not according to the schedule in Digiguide (which does have the SNP PPB at 18:55)

Is HD really that important for the small number of viewers who would rather watch the network programme over the Scottish one?

The only unfortunate thing was the breaking news just before the result was announced, making the photograph of the Reform leader already out of date.
Couldn't be helped though.

Today's Politics Hub showing the benefits of the expanded Millbank set. The original section is continuing to be used as a 'magic wall' for the YouGov MRP while the panelists are on the newsroom desk. Lately the panel had been on a sort of coffee table arrangement to the left side of the original set.

See ITV have now scheduled an hour of live interviews with the smaller parties (excluding Plaid Cymru) after the debate tomorrow meaning the News at Ten becomes the News at Ten Past Eleven.

I don't get why ITV don't bring the debate forward to 8pm and have the smaller parties interviews on at 9 (or ten-past) - allowing the News to air at a reasonable time. At 8, it's a repeat of Beat the Chasers anyway.
