Anyone Watched Gb News Yet?

[dave50]

What do people think of it?

[bednobs]

It's a rather charming cross between kytv and acorn antiques

[Cloverjo]

No, where is it?

[dave50]

Freeview 236

[dave50]

The graphics leave a lot to be desired and it would be better in HD but overall I find it quite good.

[gingejbee]

No and I have no intention to watch it...and if all the one-star reviews are typical, nobody else will want to watch, either.

Needs to improve quite substantially.

Give it a chance !

It might get better when people who know what they're doing broadcast-wise arrive.

Looked like a media studies project when I saw it yesterday.

[Cloverjo]

Just watched for about 30 seconds. The presenters were talking over each other. I can’t bear that.

[DTCwordfan]

what channel is it on?

[Sqad]

Cloverjo...exactly...and the lead presenter, Australian by his accent, just shouts and finger points......
We must give it a chance though.

[DTCwordfan]

sorry missed the channel above!

[Buenchico]

I gave it a few moments and found that the presenters sounded like they were on a political campaign trail or making a party political broadcast. I can foresee plenty of complaints to Ofcom!

[DTCwordfan]

I thought the presentation was lousy, the picture quality awful and the rolling banners not exactly helping.

[soliloquy]

Simon McCoy left the BBC News Channel to work at GB News but I wonder if he realised he was signing up to be part of a double act with "Alex" who seems to hog the presentation. He is quite capable of running the show by himself.

i like simon

[Hopkirk]

The studio is too dark.

I keep switching over hoping it will grab me. I manage a few seconds.

[ichkeria]

A lot of advertisers have pulled out at least temporarily already I see

[sandyRoe]

I've not seen it yet but I believe Mike Hunt and Ivor Biggin are going to be regular contributors via e-mail.

[ichkeria]

It is rubbish at the moment but may improve.
I notice that their weather map included a lone “Belfast” on a map of Ireland.
Of course none of Ireland is part of GB …
