Say, Mark, any word yet on when the judging will take place?

Well, the situation on emerald1 was one of the worst.
I'm making a video, although I need some time and help - so first the images.

17.27
The end of Full House. Suddenly, the ECP retriever system (which takes end credits from N6 intranet and shows it on-screen) was cued into the credits when downloading data. From the text it was showing it was seen that the system was downloading data, but later, it gave 'the loss of connection' error, trying to re-connect with the server and with the backup version.



Then, there were some problems with sound, and then...



As usual, the 'credits' were staying on-screen (although there were none of them), accompanied by tone.
Then, the static version of Emoa Productions endcap came.



17.28
The gallery started to scratch their heads and flicking random buttons, causing the 'Causeway' ident to play for 1 second, and then, into generic fault slide.



Less than a ten seconds later, the more detailed description came.



Then, after 20 seconds, this caption came, going into adverts... Meanwhile, emerald2 prepares for handing over to Six News channel.



During that, Newstime crew was getting ready for shifted edition.

17:29
'Generic Lines' into Newstime. Presenters explain the situation, repeating it in the middle and in the end.

18:00
Emerald In-Depth starts.

18:14
Thanks God, it's live, so the presenter interrupts the film, reminding about situation. Go into Six News with this slide.



18:45
Part two of Emerald Newstime film.

Well now that I have some free time, I may as well give this a proper go, including some stuff for 6NC since people have thrown the programming to them.



17:27:00 USUAL PROGRAMMING
The end of "The World Today" plays, obviously focusing on the events of the day. However, the program still has a minute to run before a short break which usually preceds Six National News.



17:27:15 BREAKING NEWS OPENER
Within 15 seconds of the feed breaking down, Aquidia MCR has informed 6NC of the fact as they have noted problems with CTV and scoTV feeds.





17:27:25 PRESENTATION FROM MANCHESTER
The current presenter of The World Today informs viewers of the current situation. Stock footage and graphics are hastily created and broadcast.



17:44:50 UPDATE ON NATIONAL NEWS
After 20 minutes of filler including crosses and information on how the news has been delayed, concrete information comes out at this time. More filler continues with constant "Six News is on at 6:15" alerts until that time.



18:15:00 EVENING EDITION BROADCAST
The earlier broadcast proceeds as usual



18:45:00 ROLLING NEWS CONTINUES
Due to the change in schedules, Around the Country is abandoned for the day in favour of more rolling news, with the scheduled documentary starting 19:30 (with all things back to normal).

A good submission, David, but, although I wish to win the London Weekday franchise someday (not agitation), it's still owned by LDN (Phoenix), not Londay.

Whoops! Aplogies to you and to Phoenix.

Well it looks like we now have something to judge!

They're all great, but I'll take a look after xmas
