Why didn't they keep Mustard's staff?


They didn't keep any of Cambridge TV's staff on either. More than likely That's will be paying less than Archant were.

They were probably too good.

Too expensive probably...
London Lite and Whataday gave kudos

A lot of the reason Mustard worked was due to its ownership and the content and staff which could be shared.

The good people of Norwich can look forward to the following:

Poor production values.
Inexperienced video journalists.

VT's from across the country.
'Local' news from parts of Norfolk that can't receive the channel.
A simulcast of That's Cambridge.
Charlotte Briere-Edney.
The same loop of news all day or a simulcast of Talking Pictures TV.
Fruit Shoots purple.

Lovely! Embarassed

It seems as if That's TV are weeding out the Mustard content as they're replacing everything with "Norfolk Headline News" and albeit stopping everything on the channel at 12am tonight.

Not only that, the Mustard TV Twitter has been renamed to @ThatsNorfolk. The website is now fully running, too.

I thought Mustard content had already stopped?

It appears That's Norfolk VT's started on Friday using Rhaya Barton from That's Hampshire.

Local TV fact of the day: the company running Norwich's local channel (and presumably the name that should be on Ofcom's local TV licence list whenever they decide to update it) has renamed itself "That's Productions Limited".

Jeez... perhaps now we could get them on trade descriptions... on the basis they don't actually ever produce anything Smile

That's North Yorkshire doesn't get much better. Terrible editing in their news programme. I have just seen a piece on homeless people suddenly switch to a piece on horses, which was repeated twice back to back.
