I know you could see the gallery for E in the background, and I assumed the one next to it was for bbc world. Sorry all the questions.There are three galleries along the back wall of the newsroom, belonging to A, C and E, though A's has long also controlled output from J (since the Outside Source days) due to it not really being a true studio. Although there were originally plans for galleries to be able to control multiple studios, this was dropped for cost reasons.
The old BBC News channel never had full playout facilities, with that instead handled as part of the channel's regular studio gallery (at NBH, this was E). Since the merger, playout for the UK feed has transferred to Studio A's gallery (this was initially touted as a temporary measure, with playout eventually supposed to transfer to RedBee, as per the channel's other feeds).
