As above, my guess set-wise is that we’ll see the existing atrium set staying until post-election, with the 7pm news programme likely using the existing weekend 7 titles. After the election, expect it to be stripped back further with the news effectively being a rerun of Rep Scot, from the Rep Scot studio (easy to achieve if the opening 5 mins are effectively pre recorded ) That, of course, is all assuming that the channel even survives until the end of the year.

On the posts about the STV Scottish Six - I was one of the very lucky few to actually see the pilot. As was said earlier, all the public saw was a short clip featuring John. The show was honestly very good. Unlike the STV2 global news show, which had more of a slow, in depth channel 4 feel, this felt like it justified the need for a Scottish Six style programme. It was packed with stories and rapidly took us from relevant hyper local news to international news that mattered. It also leant heavily on live link ups to reporters. STV really should have won the contract as the newspaper consortium would have been a mess.
