Oh no, does that mean we'll have to put up with a load of web and teletext editors swanning around in the background?

Did I notice somebody I know in the background of a Spotlight interview the other day? The interviewee was in a newsroom not far from Whiteladies Road, if I'm not mistaken!


Try watching Reporting Scotland - it becomes very distracting, but I quite like their newsroom set.

If you see someone scratching their head a lot, it'll be me - it's my on camera trademark.

And - I'm on three late shifts next week too! Wahoo!

I sincerely hope they're not going down the South East Today route of building a mini national set. It's boring and doesn't suit regional news in the slightest.

I can't really see Points West doing that ,wellI do hope NOT! Also there studio is really quite large compared to South East Today's- it would be a real shame to waste all the space. Remember the sofa has got to stay so Susan can lie down during the programme.

Any idea if it is a relaunch i.e- new music, titles aswell the set?? Or just the set alone??

Also I am really liking the newsroom set. It will be great on tuesday when we get to see it in it's full glory i.e. with 2 presenters.

Tut, tut, tut!

Next thing you'll be suggesting will be that she has to pop out half way through the programme for a hair-do!
