What happened this evening with the 10pm hour?
On BBC One, Reeta presented a regular bulletin from Studio E.
On the UK BBC NC feed, Frankie McCamley presented a full half-hour edition of BBC News which appeared to be a UK-opt only, but came from Studio C and not the balcony area. I say this based on the fact that the 10pm hour at weekends is usually from Washington and that 1) the story focus was even more UK-heavy than usual and 2) Frankie mentioned the time at the end of the bulletin (which could have been a mistake, but I don’t think it was). There was also a sign-off of sorts, accompanied with the usual message to stay with BBC News. Interesting.
Could we start to see more of this over time, as even the BBC realise that the balcony studio isn’t working?
