I think they’ve used this for a few years now.
Spotted a countdown at 11am today with the old logo…

All of the countdowns that I've seen since yesterday have been with the old logo.

I think that it's a tribute to the channel's history given it's closure 2 months from now, or maybe the people running the channel just don't give a damn about it anymore given that the channel will be closed soon...........

Same thing today. Old countdowns in use and when not - the filler countdown.

It seems Studio A is currently down for maintenance... This week's Outside Source has been presented from Studio C rather than from the balcony. Last week's Newswatch is also presented from a clip studio
Is the balcony camera only controllable from Studio A's gallery? Studio E used to have access to the balcony cameras too for the weather segments... Can't they do the same thing for Studio C's gallery?

Perhaps the new countdowns are closed for refurbishment, so they're having to use the old ones?

I think there are so many people in the other countdowns that have left, lost their jobs etc that it's probably impossible to use them.

I thought E had access to the Trundle cam but the weather camera was just an outside source from the weather balcony which is studio itself as that studio was used sometimes to provide forecasts for a region when their presenter was off.

Joanna Gosling featured in at least 2 of them, in a monitor shot from the old VD show era.
