I feel you could even keep the rather UK-heavy editorial split, but it'd be less noticeable if more stories from around the world were getting covered.
In the last half hour (which I've fast forwarded through not actually watched) there was 3 minutes on a world story, the hurricane in the US. Over 20 minutes was still on the Letby story and more of another UK murder.
If I was a former BBC World News viewer I'd now be looking for my TV World news bulletins elsewhere.
I don't think anyone can complain that this new channel is World heavy, quite the opposite.
