Re: The Wrap

Rory Bremner.  Dear oh dear.  Nothing against him, but impressions during discussions about a news story as sickening and important as Epstein?!?!

 

Just no.

 

It is supposed to be a news programme, not an entertainment program.

Re: The Wrap

Clearly Anna Botting has has lessons or instruction in how to hold herself so as not to cut off one guest when talking to the other. However, she now looks uncomfortably wooden on screen and quite rigid in her posture. It was a delight last Thursday when Anna was unexpectedly replaced by Gillian who is turning out to be the star of the show.

Re: The Wrap

The set has now been altered (Saturday night) to a larger table and the garish background dimmed considerably.

The newsreader and guests are easily seen, rather than merge into the background, but they all wore dark clothes and still look like funeral  guests.

That happened last weekend too.
But then it reverted back during the week to the full new format.

Re: The Wrap

My understanding is that The Wrap is broadcast from Sky's Millbank studio from Monday to Friday and from Sky Centre at Isleworth on Saturday and Sunday which would explain the different set at the weekend.  From a viewer perspective, I find the Isleworth set to be superior.

 

The Wrap should be broadcast from 10.30pm after a proper news bulletin at 10.00pm.   Sky News at Ten was my preferred source of news being comprehensive and independent in contrast to the BBC News at Ten which often seems to have a biased editorial slant and ITV News at Ten with Tabloid Tom and it's bunch of correspondents who are irritatingly referred to just by their first name with surnames seemingly banned.   Sky - please bring back Sky News at Ten.

Re: The Wrap

If different studios and production teams how come both Anna and Gillians shows were identical for the first few weeks? 

Either way, s truly appalling show.

Re: The Wrap

Can't believe the contempt they hold for their paying customers. 

My wife suffers from ME and loved watching Press Preview but the constant panning and zooming makes her physically sick so we will sadly be quitting this show for good. 

  • Can't understand how Sky would think anyone would enjoy this experience.

Re: The Wrap

The Wrap only launched two weeks ago.  Gillian's Friday bulletin comes from Millbank but the Saturday and Sunday bulletins have used the alternative set on both weekends.

Re: The Wrap

Having heard the comments overwhelming past few weeks i would have hoped sky might take notice....not so apparently. 

Back bbc  sadly,   as the sky presenters are excellent.
