Here’s the press release, including confirmation that contrary to yesterdays report, TNT Sports won’t be available on discovery+ in Ireland. (Though let’s see if that changes down the road).
With regards to the actual pres, they seem to be carrying on BT's 'brand chants' in a stock photo vein, with various images surrounding the new central concept of the 'N' from TNT being in the middle of the phrase, e.g. 'Here 'n' Now', 'Clubs 'n' Hearts'. Which isn't the worst idea.

Here is the moment TNT Sports 1 launched.
I was literally about to ask if anyone saw the handover, a very smooth one because from what I hear they already moved to Discovery HQ a couple of weeks ago.
Same voiceover as BT Sport were using - since launch, I think. I wonder if there's meant to be a bed behind it, as it sounds a bit odd being dry.

Playout is still from Red Bee (except TNT Sports 4, continues to be based at Encompass), so it's really just a case of loading up different media in a playlist, and not a lot to make it not smooth.
There haven't been any live productions from Stratford since the Serie A relegation playoff on June 11th. MotoGP was the first production to move to Chiswick (at the start of the season) and there have been a handful of gallery-only football matches from there too. World Feed pass-throughs have been going through the MCR in Chiswick since the start of the month, since when Stratford has been rather dormant.
