The News at One from a large red sofa is certainly a choice. Makes it feel like a regional news programme.
At least they’ve gone for a new Salford newsroom background, rather than simply reusing the London one.
Slightly puzzled by the large number (6) of named presenters for a five-day-a-week programme. I assume the idea is there isn’t a dedicated presenter but rather those prominent elsewhere (Sally, John and Nina from Breakfast, Ben from the NC, Tina from R2 and Anna Foster as, presumably, a Salford-based correspondent?). But it would still seem preferable to me to appoint one or two, and rely on the same pool of presenters who cover Breakfast to cover their absence.
