Again, the simulcast not working. Shaun Ley ending the 7pm hour saying to stay with BBC News for the latest, then a brief pause and hime welcoming viewers on PBS and introducing the topic of the chaos at Westminister with some more neutral language ('interior minister, or as the British call it, home secretary', 'the Scottish National Party, who want independence for Scotland' etc). But the level of coverage is way too much for viewers on PBS and around the world, I'd argue.
I'd say there are two reasonable options - close the domestic coverage by saying something like 'that's the end of our UK specific coverage on BBC News channel for now, for continuing coverage of UK politics please tune to Radio 5 Live or go to the BBC News website or app. We'll have more UK news coverage on TV at 10. Now, we'll join BBC World News for today's global news stories' (and then do actual world news for a world audience) OR actually provide separate domestic and international coverage.
Indirectly related to the above - what's with the 'BBC London' graphic on this video that looks to have been clipped from the news channel? I don't believe it was on BBC London, I can hear Channel 4 News's Gary Gibbon in the background suggesting it was after 7pm!
