In Sydney the opening came on for 6 seconds but just just a still slide; then a promo and ads took over before the late start.

Sounds like technical issues.

Yea it was a technical issue. The same slide appeared in Melbourne, then ads.
Some really decent figures for the news last night.
442,000 nationally with Sydney peaking at 96k

So at what point does The Chase get axed 
Listen - losing to TP is one thing, losing to 10 News First is another
In all seriousness, kudos to 10 for pulling this news figure out recently. Fingers crossed they can maintain it.

That’s great for Nat and the Perth crew.
Nat always presents flawlessly and never misses a beat. I’ve been in the control room, with her patiently waiting in Perth, while other presenters struggle to get updates right. One thing I truly miss about my time at 10 is working with her she was an absolute joy to work with.

The under-desk lighting was updated late last week. Much stronger colour now; subtle but looks great.

Fantastic set.
If only they could spend some money on other markets.

It was presumed that some works in Sydney over Christmas could’ve been associated with a possible introduction of robotic cameras, but this may not have been the case
Nothing changed (apparently). All they did was paint the floors.

LOl that’s nothing compared to the output Como Centre used to put out. Taking away Ten Melb’s track record of making fun, smart and irreverent mid-morning TV for another show made by Sydney spivvs featuring Sydney spivvs was a huge mistake.
Candice is still not up to it. Her voice is still too forced and unnatural. Sacking Helen Kapalos was the original error.

With most Robotic Studio camera setups, the pedestal positioning/movement within the studio is part of the robotics.
You can go cheap & just have a RC camera head sitting on a fixed tripod.
In Nines news studios, most of their camera pedestals are on tram tracks which limit movement to what those tracks allow.
P&T are pedestal controlled
Z is camera controlled
