PERTH
Is it normal for them to have no graphics in the intro?
No, quite unusual, must’ve been edited wrong or something.
Rolling coverage from 9am and now includes a locally produced and presented Morning News.

A Rarity to have both Rick & Sue out of the studio.
Hope they keep them refrigerated.
No, no, not a mistake…
It’s a clever use of roman numerals…
Yes… that’s it…
The way Melbourne does intros now seems to be a change for the sake of change.
They need a more permanent structure.
This was on the 23rd September, starting with a non-COVID story.
Probably the best looking intro of any station IMO. That angle creates so much depth and maybe it’s just Peter’s height, but the studio looks quite tall even though he’s standing on that riser.
That Melbourne skyline shot is not a very Melbourne looking shot.
They all look Melbourne to me
Disagree. The key-stoning of the text is awful.
The studio design - placement of the desk and screen - were obviously not designed for standing presentation. The angles required to keep the desk out of shot are too much.
10’s set in Sydney is much more accommodating for standing presentation… and looks far better.
I can certainly agree with you on that!
It’s also 3 times the size.
There are far better ways that they could be doing this in the space they currently have.
They could even have this look far better now with little effort.
Correct. It was not designed for standing intros. That was an afterthought.
Queensland’s 4pm news is anchored on the Gold Coast today where fortuitously there was big news with the handing down of the $3.6m penalties for the Dreamworld ride deaths.
Does anyone else find it odd how at the start of Sydney’s Afternoon news, Ann Sanders says “First at Four…Good afternoon”?
Sounds a bit out of place, shouldn’t it be the other way around? So it would be "Good afternoon…First at Four.
I think that’s just a very ‘Ann’ism and she’s entitled to that at this point of her career.
