When Southampton went HD, they abandoned the back-projection (which they didn't use for the weather anyway) and introduced TV screens instead - presumably this is why!Found a clip online from when the last changed sets back in 2019. From the timelapse footage it looks like they are back-projected. youtu.be
I'm guessing that as they'll be getting a new set in the not too distant future they've decided not to bother replacing those screens. Potentially the new set when it arrives may make the studio feel slightly bigger, as currently the sides are angled due to needing to accommodate those rear projectors.
