Sarah Campbell presented this morning with Ben Thompson … first time since about 2005!?

She did it a few weeks back too. She's rather prolific.

Anyone any idea what this black and white image is superimposed over the feed from Paris on yesterday’s breakfast.

At first I thought it might be a screen in the actual background but it was over his arm in the two way boxes.

I wonder if it is an exposure/white balance graphic? Depending on the setup it could have been accidentally left on?

Pretty much. It’s a luma waveform which allows someone to analyse the brightness and contrast in an image. I presume was being generated by the camera in this case to check the shot looked right and the operator forgot to remove it before going live.

I was at Media City yesterday on a tour and could see the new Breakfast Set on the ground floor, even thought it looked complete they said it needed a lot of testing and wouldn't be on air for a while yet.

We were asked not to take photos, but from what I saw it wasn't much different to what has already been posted on here.

I do not infer it from here. It just says that Ben will be doing Breakfast tomorrow (not Monday) and WBR (not Breakfast) next week. And, well, he is excited about that - possibly because WBR will be on the new channel!

Oh, now I did, thanks! So, he will be doing business during Breakfast and something exciting is happening on Monday, a big deal.

It's gonna be wild if they will launch both new channel and new Salford studio simultaneously - certainly not the way BBC brass has been doing things recently, they usually preferred baby steps.

Is he not just referring to BBC News (as in the "new" channel) starting on Monday?

I think it’s a mix of ‘new channel’ and new look BBC Breakfast
