Slightly back on topic though, how many Bens work for BBC News?

Brown. Thompson. Boulos. Mundy. Wright. Rich (weather).

There's probably loads more.

Ben King, according to Google. No, me neither.

Ben from the post room? Now there's a sitcom whose "sit" hasn't aged well.

Not forgetting Ben Chu who’s about to rejoin Newsnight as economics editor.

A similar situation today with three Bens but Mundy instead of Thompson

According to the website schedule, that's the 14th and 17th June.

Was it just me or was there a few audio issues during the TOTH, even in the Scotland opt?

I'd rather the News Channel just take the 10 regardless of what time it starts considering it's going to be like this on various nights for the next month.

I think it's good that they will take WNA for a change. As I've mentioned before, I think WNA would work great on the NC and then the ten on BBC1... Big Grin

Most of the programme isn't relevant for UK audiences

Depends how you look at it I guess, I like to see what's going on in other countries as well as the UK, I see your point though Big Grin

Yeah but global news is covered on domestic bulletins in a way that makes it relevant for UK viewers, WNA targets US viewers so makes it relevant for them, the average UK viewer wouldn't be interested
