The new HD studio will allow Vincent to invite an audience to participate in the show occasionally, he also promises that the new technology will mean that the newspaper preview will be significantly better than before. (Personally, I feel the only thing wrong with the newspaper preview is that Vincent doesn't leave enough time for a proper preview of the papers ).

Any set/studio would be better than the current chromakey one. The show often looks like a TY project.

The new studio sounds impressive. Smart move by TV3. Could be a nice earner for them.

I wish them the best of luck with it.

I'm not sure a new studio is the answer, I think the show's format needs to be updated a bit... And get Cassie back from Canada ffs..

I think it's safe to assume that we'll have a Margaret Thatcher special this evening.

Ex-Prime Minister Baroness Thatcher dies

Former Prime Minister Baroness Thatcher has died at 87 following a stroke, her spokesman has said.

Lord Bell said: "It is with great sadness that Mark and Carol Thatcher announced that their mother Baroness Thatcher died peacefully following a stroke this morning."

Baroness Thatcher was Conservative prime minister from 1979 to 1990.

Good stuff!

Should be a good discussion tonight on Thatcherism.

Hopefully Mario will make an appearance in the new Sony HD studio.

Would love to see the actual tweets and texts that will be sent in on Maggie Thatcher tonight. I'd say there would be choice language in those.

Unfortunately, that's not going to happen, Mario turned his back on TV3 to work for RTE last year.

Forgot about that.

Thought he was better on TV3. The shorter clips suited him, rather than trying to fill a 30 mins show for a few weeks with new material.

I'm trying to make up my mind about the new studio.

The panel : Noel Dorr, Susan McKay, Martin Mansergh, Diarmuid Ferriter.

Is this meant to be broadcast in HD? I don't notice much difference in the picture quality.

VB in HD :eek:

Mansergh

A mind of information and great historian but very difficult to listen to.

Very little difference with the studio tbh.
A load of old fogies talking about Thatcher.
Don't think i'm too interested in this.

He recorded a programme a couple of weeks ago with a studio audience but it has yet to be aired.

Mansergh is always good for a laugh.

How in the..? I definitely saw this studio before (maybe with Sam Smyth in the hotseat)

Can't see the big deal, that's the problem, my tv is still saying it's 576i SD as broadcast quality - a long way from 1080i or p !

No it's in SD, TV3 only broadcast in SD but they now have a HD studio which then has the HD pictures downgraded to SD to be broadcast, it's like something out of Father Ted.

I was thinking the same. I'm almost certain that they randomly did a show in the new studio a few weeks ago, and then (inexplicably) returned to the old one the next day.

About 50% of people are women, why do they not vote for their own?

There isn't enough women to vote for?

Thatcher was certainly no feminist.
