Yes, I remember when it was the anniversary of the BBC News 24 launch and they made a big thing of it on that day’s BBC News at Five. Although I did wonder if that might have at least partly been driven by Huw, as he seemed very much to be enjoying it!

There was a relatively-long countdown into the BBC News at Six just now after the weather (about 65 seconds) which was nice, and could possibly be one of the last times we see it if they are going to be scrapping that shortly.

Edit: I see it’s already been noticed by other posters, I was too slow on the keyboard there!

Are they getting rid of the countdown or is it getting the chameleon treatment.

It was answered a while back...

Nooooo way.... NOOOOOOO.... Basically it's exactly what this mock countdown depicts AHHHH:

It's almost as if the mock maker had some inside knowledge... incredible likeness. 

In my opinion, it looks okay... but it kinda gives me a BBC World 2004 vibes.
