wonder if the studio rebuild has been delayed, so they’ve prioritised AM getting on air? pure speculation.

Will AM early come from the Newshub studio or AM studio

It’s a COVID measure. Some of the staff that produce AM stick around fo produce 11:30 with other staff coming on to produce 11:30 & 4:30. With newsroom bubbles being introduced shortly to make sure shows can stay on air in the event of a COVID outbreak in the newsroom Newshub at 11:30’s return has been delayed. Means the AM staff can clear the newsroom by 9:15 and new staff can come in with little to no contact with those teams so all teams can hopefully keep safe and all teams operational.

The studio to my understanding is finished and rehearsals have been going well with AM Early & AM all set to come online from Monday all going to plan.
It will come from the News studio space. But parts of the set The story and Nation sides have been replaced including the weather wall.

No disrespect but I don’t ever and have never seen her a funny and ruthless, always seems rather stale even during bits of banter.

I hope prime news gets a use out of the new set. The green screen is not cutting it in the modern time

Won’t happen as the control room is 4floors away and there is no easy way to isolate the two shows running back to back easily.

Best thing to happen would be to use some of the old AM show screens to build some backdrop and build real set elements around it. Challenge is the prime studio and control room is a scaled back version of the control room and studio space.
