Get S4C to have their own studio!If you’re interested in the relationship between the BBC and S4C—and no, they don’t dictate set designs—then the articulation agreement which runs to ‘28 is quite fascinating.
On the pres point, my understanding was that Cardiff went slightly early and spent a pretty penny so they’re reluctant to fork out for one of those screens just at the minute.
It would be a bit of a waste to get a monolith in that studio..It's far bigger and more sophisticated than an English region (and technologically NI & Scotland)
The screens a storytelling device, useful now the regions do longer presenter led explainers to cover the budget cuts in newsgathering resources. Fits the design language of BBC News 23 but isn't a replica.
BBC Wales has a huge space with lots of places to do explainer and interviews, lots of shots from ceiling & ground robotic caneras and AR capabilities if they need it. Not much to be gained by plonking a tower screen in that space, so why do it?
