This region doesn't appear to have its own thread, so might as well start one. This will apply to, at least, BBC's Look North (North East & Cumbria) and ITV News Tyne Tees/Border (there may be other regional variations up here I'm not aware of).

Look North this lunchtime appeared to be having issues with its autocue; after the first report/VT ended, the newsreader (Alastair Gill) started reading from the script in front of him through until the end of the bulletin.
