I remember the day well and can remember being amazed at just how good the studios looked - particularly with regard to how spacious they were. Even though I have a good degree of fondness for the N8 set (even if it did look a bit dark and tatty towards the end), and it was indeed a big improvement on BBC World's previous sets, I still think it's important to remember what a step-up the move was in terms of how the channel looked - for the first time BBC World News had studios on a par with its competitors.
