Presumably some skeleton crew have had to be available to provide this service. One assumes that these staff may be redeployed for the proper UK daytime service.
This is my point - does the BBC want to provide a full, professional UK daytime service, as we saw 9am - 6pm before the merger - utilizing a full studio with proper TOTH's & headline sequences, or will it be an absolute bare bones, skeleton staffed service, with one presenter on the balcony with a single camera, no TOTH's or headlines - so basically an all day version of the current UK opt out.
