I miss the old days because the bulletins were well timed and produced ever since 2004 when they renovated their set it all changed and slowly went down hill from there in my opinion. Here’s a video with a rare title globe spin from the North Pole. I only ever remember seeing one from the almost South Pole with NZ and Antarctica being the starting point.

Also loved Anita McNaught, always came across as if she had somewhere else to be lol
Also enjoyed Stephen Cole and Adrian Finighan during those days, as well as Martine Dennis, Lucy Hockings, David Eades and Lyse Doucet. So many prominent names.

They weren’t popular in the blue place but I was a big fan of the spinning globe titles that changed with the top story. Great to see it focusing on a rare part of the world. It was even rarer on News 24 simply because most lead stories would be UK / Europe focused.
I’d love some detail on how it worked. Were the titles rendered live or before the TOTH? Some special kit required?
