Gets a bit stuffy in that cellar.
On a serious note, the new (or perhaps 'altered' is a better word) desk is an improvement on its ginormous predecessor, however I still feel slightly uneasy about its asymmetrical design and wish the 'newsreader' section jutted out as far as the 'contributor' section, but perhaps that's just me being a bit of a weirdo.
With regards to looking a little cramped, I've thought this a few times recently, do you think we've just become accustomed to seeing more spacious setups since the pandemic? Therefore looking back at pre-pandemic sets, they naturally look too cramped. I take your point on the guest situation though, the current desk is clearly better suited for that.
