I also think Mark Steyn probably choose the desk in the first place, considering his influences are probably American TV from decades gone by.
Ahh okay, well I have sat there wondering about those studios as I think they could look a bit better if GB News just added a little more branding detail, I presume something removable as they rent the space? The Sunday show looks great there when the large TV is set up on the side wall and they use some coloured lighting.
RE: the desk, yuk
I just googled a few images and I see what you mean about the desk. This set looks like a mock up and it is only captioned LIVE rather than with a location. I think the guest is from across the pond as well so it may be in the states or she happened to be over here.
I also noticed, whilst browsing images that the central part of the desk is metal when in the Westminster studios above but wooden in the centre in the other set below, so someone has definitely made two of those desks!
Also from that link above I'd guess the Sunday show and Farrage use Studio A with white cladding used on the Sunday show, and I think Mark's show has sometimes come from A and C in the past, plus this 3rd set below (Wherever that is)
It is odd how they seem to leave everyone guessing. I think his show helps get good numbers for them, I'd love to know how they're doing in that slot without him.
