Newsday also broke ranks with it’s intro, with a reference too. “This is BBC World News, live from London and Singapore, it’s Newsday”. Again, the sort-of excuse there was it was output from Singapore, so worked in a way as it was obvious “world news”.

Now the presenters say "You're watching Newsday on the BBC". Just the BBC, not BBC World News or BBC News. They've done so for a long time.

Yes, I know.

I was just saying that the dual-anchored Newsday did use a different intro and was one of the few programmes regularly simulcast to mention the branding BBC World News. I think that was clear in the context of my whole post, but apologies if it wasn’t.

I know they don’t use the same intro any more; they can’t of course because they are no longer live from Singapore and London!
