Looks like Norwegian station VG TV - security gently pushed the mic away.

I was referring to the marquee. They both showed 10s set up an hour or so ago.

Nine only has to look to Ten to see the stupidity of sending 6pm news anchors from multiple states. Surely one nationally known presenter will suffice for news regarding the royals. Ten can’t present a locally produced bulletin in Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth but can send two readers to London to parrot the exact same script. It makes zero sense. Perhaps they should’ve done what Seven used to do with presentation from big news events- team up the Sydney and Melbourne presenters. You can bet Canada isn’t sending readers from every local market in the country to cover this.

“The broadcaster considered sending over a 6pm news anchor”

I would assume Peter Overton, Melissa Downes and Kate Collins would go over. Andrew Lofthouse and Brenton Ragless would stay behind to read the rest of the days news. Unfortunately Perth and Melbourne would either miss out or send over Tracy Vo/Alicia Loxley.

Tracy Vo is already over there.
