Now that the snap UK GE has been called by Rishi Sunak at Downing St; it would be a great modicum of sense for the NC to use Studio C as the main UK opt-opt studio of the GE campaign for the next six weeks as opposed to the relatively new Studio A that is located on the balcony. I suspect the amount of time devoted for the NC going into full election mode will be quite significant for that length of time. I would assume that lot of the output from the correspondents located around the UK would have to do lots of interviews with MPs and local people who are living around the various constituencies on who they vote for in the election.

How big is that commitment is going to be for the BBC NC over the next six weeks?

They will probably have to do a lot of back and forth analysis between the Newsroom and Studio C over the course of the campaign.
The screens over in the newsroom would have to be used full time for the UK Election Opt-out coverage on the UK feed of the NC.

They probably would not be able to use them for the World feed of the NC at all.

Would the UK feed of the NC be able to use the BBC Verify team for some of the UK election opt-out coverage or would that not be necessary?

Would Martine Croxall be back on screen during these Opt-Outs for the GE because it would be great to see her come back on the NC again in the next while?
