Quite surprised they're broadcasting the sentencing live considering they have to keep cutting away due to privacy injunctions in place. Would make more sense just to release the footage after. That said I don't think the sentencing being filmed adds anything to the process.
I get why in theory they're showing live what they can but it just highlights how in practice a reporter summing up the sentence after makes for a smoother broadcast.
And we talked about audio on OBs the other day and going from the quiet of the court to the noise, possibly from nearby roadworks, of outside the court, is really jarring for such a sensitive story.
