The set refresh continues in the current Sky News style of being functional rather than having a wow factor.

Halla Mohieddeen, formerly of Al-Jazeera and STV, presented the afternoon slot today. Is this her first appearance on Sky?

She's popped up on a couple of overnight shifts recently. Nice to see Halla back on screen.

It seems the Sky News ticker has stopped:

Having gone back through the live stream on Youtube it would appear that for some reason it started repeating the same text in the next block, so you had one headline and then the exact same one afterwards. If you go back far enough the same story appeared three or four times in one go, so presumably somebody spotted the problem and faded it out to fix it. It was on that default bar for about 45 minutes.
Although I note from
news.sky.com they don't seem to use the news@sky com email address now (in favour of skynews.com), so that's obviously an old graphic.

It's Christmas in Sky Central!

Only when we know who his successor is, will we have any idea the direction Sky News will take next, I guess.

Any thoughts on who the successor will be? Somebody to be brought in from NBC news ?
