So far today, apart from the new look which is growing on me along with certain themes (A La Une/Daybreak (the latter of which we have yet to see), Au Coeur de l'Info/World View and Around the World/Autour du Monde) -- not a big fan of the Paris Direct remix though, the original was simply perfect, some of the scheduling changes have been a bit of a mixed bag.

There's no more standard short news bulletins throughout the day but tranches instead. However, on the English channel Paris Direct was only live for the first TOTH and half hour (possibly hour) with the 2nd and 3rd hours being repeats of the first. I believe there was some element of technical issues perhaps as a further business chronique was teased at 1:20pm at the end of the one in the noon news bulletin.

Over on the French channel for whatever reason the 2pm half hour of Paris Direct was replayed at 3pm instead of Autour du Monde starting. Rather odd as the 2pm hour is focused on live footage and Elisabeth Allain said a proper goodbye at the end of that hour. After it did start at 3:30pm though, most of Autour du Monde was live with live coverage of the constitutional change voted on today in Versailles, but the last half hour seemed to be a repeat.

Back on the English channel, rather disappointingly the second hour of Around the World was a repeat and furthermore, oddly enough the 5pm hour was repeated at 6pm whereas Francois Picard should supposedly have taken over at that time for World View. Instead, World View started at 7pm with the debate at 7:10pm as previously.
