That made me laugh more than it should have :lol:
Back-to-back ad breaks on Sky News just now, presumably something has gone wrong.

Out of the first break into a static Sky News logo at 11:31. then straight back to trails and then more ads.

Back into programming at 11:34
Not sure what is going on. There's just been two ad breaks back-to-back with a few seconds of Sky News logo in between. They've just come back, but the Top Stories strap looked to be the one from The Early Rundown.

I take it you were trying to quote me, and send a reply. :lol:
As we used to say at TVF: Whoosh!

At risk of causing some consternation - even the best have hiccups now and again, and isn't all down to "being GB News"!
During the Weather, read out of vision by the presenter a QR code is now appearing top right under the time.

These special straps for the Platinum Jubilee are nice, with a bokeh fireworks animation in the background - for example at 52 seconds into this video.

Minor point but I’ve noticed Sky News often using the wrong branded lower third graphics. Sky News Today using Ian King Live coloured straps (Blue/White gradient and dark blue text) until just now, when it’s gone back to the generic red with white text. Happened a few times, I mean of course most viewers probably wouldn’t think it looks out of place.
