No-where that I work would tolerate a covid-secure environment like that - let alone tweet about it!
Yep, and a complete 2 fingers up to everyone else right now. I wonder if they will pull the bubble excuse.
Meanwhile, I wonder if the tasters are just promo-like clips or proper features put together?

Nigel would be a great signing, I've always rated him as a broadcaster.
Weekends do seem to be a little light at the moment so maybe there is more announcements to come?

Well they're all going back to their own homes, so not bubbled. No social distancing and no mitigation - so clearly not working to PHE workplace rules. It appears they don't have the H&S structures in place other established broadcasters do..

The article confirms that they've been using the Hilton Hotel in Paddington for rehearsals.

Garden being the key word there, ie. outdoors?
I must admit I find the lack of distancing between any of these presenters/reporters to be a questionable at best. It doesn’t seem to be the best fit with PHE guidelines on workplaces or general social distancing guidance.

Well if you want to pedantic, the 5 of them could quite happily go inside a pub and bunch up as close as they like :twisted:

This is indoors, in a workplace - not a garden, and as a rehearsal it would seem likely a prolonged exposure (as if that matters if you're hugging your colleagues)
The reason I raise it is that most of us in the industry are still screened off, masked and socially distanced and our physical audiences have to obey the same rules - so this image flys very much in the face of industry and PHE practice.
GB News has just appeared on my Virgin EPG guide today. It’s just showing the “GB News is Coming” loop at the moment however.

Apologies if I've missed this, but have GBN announced whether their service will be available on AppleTV, TVPlayer or Samsung+?
