Derbyshire is so much better at this, but I'd still dump the panel.

Secondly satellite feeds are one way, but that's not to say you can't have two, one in each direction. So the guest is being uplinked to the BBC and a reverse vision uplinked by the BBC back to the studio where the guest is. Doesn't happen often and rarely in news unless the presenter is on an OB. Though it's more common to use a low latency IP based reverse, this is always the case for autocue feeds for obvious reasons.
A lot of satellite lives for news are two-way via satellite as the clean feed is sent back over satellite to the uplink truck
Reverse vision via Zoom or other services like Skype, Facetime and WhatsApp is used sometimes. Sometimes the contributor had to see what's happening in the studio. One example is the kids show Saturday Mash Up, the contestants playing a game at home get a reverse vision from a seperate output of the studio to play their games

I see the program actually finished slightly early today, so maybe it wasn’t a case of Laura deciding to randomly extend her program by 3 minutes each week because she is a less competent broadcaster than Victoria Derbyshire after all…

To my knowledge none of the thousands of guests I've put through to BBC galleries have ever had a reverse vision feed supplied to them, in any format or technology. I have seen Autocue feeds being sent down IP lines, but not as part of a reverse vision feed per se, but as a standalone feed for presenters on location.As I say it's not common for news unless it's a presenter on location, but it is possible and is done occasionally.

Maybe these things are planned and presenters finish the program when instructed by the gallery, but who knows!
