Can’t notice any difference, would only know if you’d watched the video on Facebook.

You can see the plasma on the right hand side is squished in closer to the desk than it otherwise would be, indicating the studio is much smaller. Also I think the floor is a different colour.

The “average” viewer would have to be in a state of comatose to not notice some of these errors.

I think it’s a fair point, though. I see mistakes on 7 all the time, especially Sunrise. Don’t know what’s happened to that show but mistakes galore lately.

Seven News Sydney’s new weather promo:

“To get Sydney’s most accurate weather, you need television’s most qualified meteorologist. David Brown doesn’t worry about who’s wearing what, but he forecasts your weather… Sydney’s only comprehensive weather forecast, seven days a week, every night of the year, is on Seven …”. :wink:

It doesn’t say anything about Brown doing the weather EVERY night, just the weather is on Seven News every night.

Studio 2 is much bigger. Plasma was pushed in as I would assume there was no weather presenter tonight.

100% tomorrow’s isn’t even a possibility for the new set. New control room and studio are being built for QTQ. Months away.

Is graham actually a meteorologist? We worked at the BOM, but does that maketh?

His title at the Weather Channel was “Broadcast Meteorologist”, now at the ABC he’s called a “Weather Specialist”, whatever that means :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Speaking of Graham Creed, I believe he, alongside David Brown and Magdalena Roze are the only weather presenters that doesn’t use an autocue.

Oh wait, what about that clown from TEN? Does he ever use an autocue?

EDIT - Actually, some other people like Gavin Morris from NBN, Garry Youngberry from QTQ and former BTQ weather presenter John Schluter also don’t use the autocue IIRC.

In any case, can’t we all agree that Nine News Sydney could do with a qualified meteorologist (or at the very least, a presenter who displays a bit more knowledge about the weather) as their main weather presenter?

Don’t get me wrong, the weather segment on Nine News Sydney certainly isn’t as bad as it is on Ten Eyewitness News: First At Five in the Sydney market but when you consider that Seven News Sydney has David Brown while Nine/NBN News in Regional NSW/ACT gets Gavin Morris, you do have to wonder if Amber Sherlock and Belinda Russell are really the two best weather presenters for the #1 rating 6pm news bulletin in Australia’s largest city.

I’m fairly certain he is not a meteorologist, just a long-time weather presenter.

Michael Shultz in Perth doesnt use an autocue either.

I don’t believe Garry is a meteorologist just passionate about the weather.
