Happened to have CNN International on somewhere and saw the mess they made of that. New Day, from CNN US, came back from a break and explained the lectern outside Number 10, went to a London correspondent to explain the story while waiting for the statement - all good so far.
And then the door opened, Truss came out and... cut to black, Breaking News sting and a presenter introduced the statement which was already in progress.

Shocked but not surprised. Chris Mason (and Nick Eardley) excellent as always.
