It looks almost like a game show than an election debate; and the recolouring of the cyc doesn't seem to have worked well, and the lighting is a trifle gloomy. There's also the mismatched bevels on the screens behind the guests which looks poor and the fact they're using the Politics England astons instead of the purple election ones.
It looks like different regions have done different things with the graphics, Leeds used the Politics England ones too.

That being said it's a radio programme which has been produced in a television studio for online streaming so you can sort of forgive that, except they are signposting people to watch it on the iPlayer.
Radio Cambridgeshire have their election hustings next week. It'll be interesting to see whether they use the old Look East Cambridge studio, depending on what's left of it.

I'm sure I read somewhere that they cannibalised the TV facility for equipment usable in Norwich, then auctioned off everything else, which might have included elements of the set.
It's probably now just a store room.

Id heard that too.
It wouldn’t work now because of the new sets but its a shame they didn’t keep the studio and occasionally broadcast look east from there
