I actually do sense some noticeable differences in content and running order, at least compared to what we'd usually see on World. Particularly:

- The top of every half hour, so far Ben has said "Live from London, this is BBC News. I'm Ben Thompson." A simple line that feels fresh and powerful.
- I thought the headlines did feel a bit quicker than usual.
- Lots more live presence with near-constant live talkbacks with correspondents and guests. I don't think we saw a single piece of tape in the first half hour until the PKG on the Dover border issues at 24 minutes past.

This feels much more urgent and rolling than the last few years of BBC World, which relied a lot on the usual routine of taped reporter pkg, live talkback with a guest, lather, rinse, repeat. I can also see why, given all the increased live elements, they needed some time to rehearse.
