Might just be that I swallowed the style guide of the place I work, but should With be capitalised? Always looks a bit amateurish to me to capitalise each word.

I would assume that any strands that are to be launched in the future would also have Maryam’s name on their title sequence. Might be related to the fact that she’s one of the five chief presenters of the channel?

Is it live generated the text maybe they could put any name on it?

Out of the 5 chief presenters, wasn't it the case that Maryam is to be relief for each of the strands? If so, I'd assume that's why, as she's going to appear fairly often across each of the programmes.

If there’s a positive to come from this, it’s seeing presenters in their own fixed slots again, for the first time in years.

A simulcast of The Nine on the UK feed:
[*]high quality UK news content
[*]not London-centric
[*]no additional costs
[*]high production values for TV
That's four boxes checked.
Putting a (subtitled?) Welsh or Gaelic bulletin rerun at 10:30 pm would be unique content as Sky, GB or Talk won't do such programming. An additional box checked. And no weird transition for UK viewers during Newsday that's also weird for World viewers.

Infinitely better than the abbreviation "w/” which I've seen on some US news programmes.

I've watched The Nine occasionally from London, and at most I have spent nine days in Scotland so no ties to it, and I think as a bulletin it seems one of the best in presentation and production values, so that would be a yes from me.

The Nine maybe, but come on, An Là and Newyddion, really?
The demand for news in Welsh and Gaelic outside their respective nations, even subtitled, must be next to nil.
