I guess it's a sympton of the poxy sized studio that they have. Which gives me little hope that BBC Channel Islands will get a particularly "Studio B" style set either, as the St Helier studio is also a very poxy one.

The CI sub-opt comes from a 'cupboard under the stairs' at BBC Radio Jersey.  There is never any standing presentation, as they'd bang their heads on the ceiling.  A proper regional 'minilith' would be wasted, although they could actually use someone's mobile phone in front of one of the cameras to make it look as if they had one.

They could develop some kind of NBH-B style set on the two walls which are visible, but the screens would be rather wasted in an environment with only 2 fixed camera shots.  Frankly, I wonder what extraordinary efforts it took to get that two-part sofa into the cupboard.
