My only real bugbear is the red opaque strap being used for EVERYTHING. I was never a fan of text being shown across the screen for every single report which was introduced in April, but it wasn't so bad when they still used the nice black transparent strap for non breaking stories, as at least you could tell what story was a breaking or developing one if they used red. Plus it looked quite nice. But since the updates in June, it's looked ridiculous. Also the bar at the bottom of the screen looked better in transparent black before it became red.
And I've never liked the chameleon titles. Botched is too nice a word to describe them. Plus don't get me started on the titles for Verified Live etc.
But other than that, I guess it's not that bad. Yes it's not as exciting or as vivid as in 2013, when they had more funding and a wider variety of shots and backdrops were used and presenters were able to roam more freely, and weren't having to control an autocue, but we are where we are.
