Going by their Twitter accounts, one of them doesn't like Greta Thunberg, so I think it's safe to say they've gone for more of the same.
A paper review - how very original.
Needless swipe at the mainstream media (despite GB News most of the time just copying in a vastly inferior way the main broadcasters) - check.
Judging by the summary ‘all-star comedy cast’ we’ll presumably have Dara O’Briain, Jack Dee and Peter Kay reviewing the papers each night. Or perhaps as usual GB News are overhyping their output and haven’t learnt from their mistakes
I imagine the surname of one of the presenters being similarly named to a toy will probably be funnier than anything that airs on this show
Did Dan Woottan do a review as part of his show?

I believe he did, but it may have been of the news generally as opposed to just the papers. I seem to recall him doing a specific paper one, at least near launch.
New sidebar on 'Dan Wootton Tonight', essentially containing a condensed version of his monologue. Not sure what the point is really.
Also contained 'coming up' info at the start of the show but again, not sure what it adds.
EDIT: Watching it back, the news updates for Dan's show have a London (I think) skyline backdrop.
"No Spin, No Bias, No Censorship" is on the lower thirds.

I've got to say, whilst I like GB News and enjoy watching it, it's not the best to have that on the straps whilst Dan Wootton launches into a monologue about how bad he thinks COP26 is.
I don't find paper reviews that exciting but I do think some are holding GB News to higher standards than other channels.
The two main UK News channels both have paper reviews. I don;t see an issue with GB News having one, even though it's not my cup of tea.
Noticed the new background during the news...I wonder if that's just for Wootton's show or will now a 'thing'?
It looks ok but I'm not sure if it's an improvement over the normal one. Not worse though either.

I reckon it’s just for Wootton’s show. The proper one looks much better.
I wouldn't be surprised if this paper review is a spoiler for the upcoming Talk TV Murdoch channel launching in the new year.

Well if they say it then it must be true.

I don't think anyone is other than GB News who have decided to launch theirs by putting down their rivals in the EPG, something which just comes across as tacky and unnecessary.
This new paper review show is appalling even for GB News. 3 third-rate comedians doing their 1980/90s-style schtick

Haven’t watched it properly so can’t really judge the comedy but from the bit I did see it appears they’re being more imaginative in terms of presentation, camera angles etc than most of the other GBN shows
I just can't see how it is cost effective to now have 5 different shows across 6 hours.
