For clarity... ITV News is moving to the basement while they completely gut the current newsroom and replace it with a state of the art newsroom fit for the next 20 years.

That does sound interesting.
Should we expect onscreen changes or is that being too speculative?
Julie Etchingham paid her own tribute to Paul Davies, or "PD" as he's apparently known in the newsroom.

All I know is that sadly it won't feature a studio.

You won’t spot anything on screen apart from when they film in the temporary newsroom itself.
Slightly off-topic but just watched Paul Brand's Tonight doc on the first Aids death in the UK and it was a good if tough programme to watch. I've always thought Paul was the one to watch at ITV News, I've always thought if Peston was indisposed and couldn't do his show, they should let Paul be the replacement.

Agree with this - the documentary was a tough one to watch but was really good.
Paul Brand is deffo the one to watch at ITV News at the moment, certainly one of the most promising of the younger faces at the moment along with Daniel Hewitt
Himself and Daniel Hewitt are real assets to the team.
Although I far from watch nightly nowadays the last couple of weeks is the first time I've really seen Anushka in the role as Deputy Political Editor, reporting on and analysing Cop 26, rather than just in her role on Peston with Screeny. She's a long way to go to make an impact IMO but if she can find a pet topic like Paul has with care homes and Daniel has with dodgy homes that they return to frequently she'll have her chance.

Oh that's where she's from. I don't watch Peston so it felt to me like she'd just arrived a few months ago and went straight to that role, rather than promoting one of the correspondents. Makes a lot more sense now
Does anyone else think Hannah Miller's mic was a bit bluffled for her report? it felt like it was on the first day ITV were Live in Edinburgh...
Her mic was a bit dodgy tonight, but at lease she was able to get the message through to her viewers. The microphone was a bit dodgy for her during the ITV Granada days as well.

Around this time last year when Robert Peston had to self-isolate, he hosted his programme from his home, with Anushka in his chair in the studio and Paul was brought in to do Screeny.
