I miss their use of the phrase “Still Ahead” - I think it sounded so much smarter than “Coming Up”. It must be 10 years since they used it.
I knows it’s a rolling news channel, but sometimes I wish they handed over to the next presenter a little. Sometimes an anchor will say “coming up on Sky News” and then suddenly they’ve disappeared and someone else is in the chair! Doesn’t need to be long. Just helps the flow.
Although my biggest gripe, is when they’ll do a coming up sequence and then actually the TOH comes and it’s into a documentary.
And I've not seen a coming-up sequence which implies rolling news then it goes into a documentary during the daytime for ages, are you referring to when this happens overnight? That's because they are replaying the midnight hour until 6am some nights and they wouldn't be able to do multiple coming-up sequences for the right hours very easily.
