I suppose this is the first mention of “BBC News” for the merged service, though it’s basically the same simulcast phrasing of “viewers in the UK and around the world.”
The World feed is still using BBC World News logo in titles and onscreen graphics like a typical simulcast.
Running order of stories is noticeably different as a World viewer - they’re leading with a Boris Johnson inquiry, while until the previous hour World was leading with Alex Murdaugh’s sentencing and Bahkmut.
Edit: As the bulletin goes on this seems waaaaaay more like World was merged into News, rather than News merging into World (though I understand the named programs are more weighed towards World)
