Much better than the ones they use at 6pm where the desk sits isolated in the middle of the floor. This was very interesting and the dual live backgrounds worked surprisingly well.

Very odd opening standing presentation on 7 News Melbourne tonight.

They’ve done this before. Quite odd indeed.
They are doing lots of ‘reading 2 stories in a row per reader’ lately too.

Not this again. Looks horrible.
If they need to throw to a reporter, use the right side of the screen (above the desk) while they’re both standing on the left.

This looks stupid.
It’s like Mike is a robot in the background and waiting for his animatronic queue

It looks even worse with the desk out of place and not on the markings on the floor where it used to be.

Very bizarre to go from single headed presentation during the year to double headed as the ‘summer fill-in’ also…

Is it though? Don’t the double header couples come as a single package?
I think Musher and Ange will fill in for Fergo in Sydney too.

I actually laughed when I saw this tonight. It looked terrible and somewhat awkward with Mike just standing there in the distance.

Not sure why QTQ wouldn’t have taken that. Seemed to be plenty of notice.

Do Melbourne ever use the screen on the front of the desk for anything other than the 7news logo. Does it turn red for Breaking News?
