From a presentation point of view I quite liked that it made the programme feel as one with a proper close, but on the BBC they could be ridiculously brief.
The Six's recaps tended to be more substantive - the summary itself was often about a minute long - while the Nine/Ten recaps were pretty much always just a repeat of the few headline sentences for the two main stories.
