What do News Readers Talk About at The End of The News Cast?

    Its a real noodle scratcher,I always wonder what Anne Doyle/Anthony Mernain and Colm Murray chat about as the credits run at the end of the News Cast.

    As good as my lip reading skills are,I always wonder what they might be saying.

    I think they might be discussing which part of the crust on a slice of bread is nicer,the brown round bit at the top,or the white square bit at the bottom.

    Any Suggestions?

    I think its more along the lines of how Ron Burgundy conversed with Veronica Corningstone after their broadcasts.

    I was on the NBC studio tour in New York, and the guide said that newsreaders just mime as if they're talking to each other, to make it seem like they're discussing the news or something, and that they have good communication with each other.

    I used to share with a girl that worked in Sky News and she said that they just talk complete crap when the show finishes. Everything from what they did last night to abusing each other for a laugh. She said that they do it to try and make each other laugh on camera.

    They normally just talk about if they fecked up a line or whatever. Or if there's a funny story probably about that. I worked at a TV station in the states and on the ad breaks the news anchors would practise their tv voice and go over lines. But the News over there isn't as structured as RTE news. You'd never see Anne Doyle crack a joke. (I think her face might actually crack!!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 130 ✭✭jammie


    Ok heres one that I am almost sure would have been a HOT TOPIC!! Know a few of the newsroom staff nearly pissed themselves when it happened!! A few weeks back, Anne Doyle was walking back to her desk (as you do) and went to sit down on her chair, only she missed and landed flat on her big fat ARSE :eek: :D:p

    I got it as stage direction when I was in a college musical and we were miming a conversation in the background. According to the director, saying rhubarb over and over is apparently the closest thing to mimicking natural conversation... No idea where he got it from though...

    There was a cause last year that if you watched the 6 O Clock news on a certain date just at the beginning you could hear somebody say "blaaa blaaa blaaa blaaa blaaa"
    I'm confused......
