    I am ho-hum about it, yes spacious but why the couch? Are they planning a morning show? Biggest change they needed was a new logo and new colours.

    I had heard that the One news was getting a revamp no idea it included the Six One as well. It can't be that long since it was last revamped is it? I don't see why they need to do it. I wonder how much it all cost?

    The couch looks odd for a news broadcast and out of place.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I agree...looks very stylish. Sometimes our license fee is spent wisely

    please RTE take a leaf out our mainland european neighbours.




    Christ, imagine being trapped in a dark room with that on a wall on a loop! They all look the same really and the Day Today got there first in any event.

    “while providing a high refresh rate to allow viewers to experience RTE’s ultra-HD and 4K content”

    They’ll probably have a new studio before this happens lol

    Just watching a little bit of the six one there, what's the deal with the gaudy red "Live" logo in bottom corner? Looks woeful.

    Due to the Eurovision final, today's Main Evening News will be broadcast at 8:40 on RTÉ News Now only, according to the TV Listings on RTÉ's Entertainment website. Clearly, the time when it was broadcast on RTÉ One after Eurovision is in the past!

    At the end of six one there was no indication of any further bulletins and on s aorview epg for news now there's no indication of any live news except Euronews starting at 10 tonight

    You're right - the Saorview EPG contradicts the RTÉ Entertainment website's listings (The same happened last year, I think). Obviously, RTÉ isn't bothering with a late TV news bulletin on Eurovision night anymore.

    Given it was well after midnight when it finished, you can understand why they wouldn’t have bothered - certainly no point in running a full length Nine on RTE One at that point.

    Is Eurovision night the only night in the year where there isn’t a main evening news bulletin ?

    Why could they not have had the bulletin on RTÉ Two instead? That's what was done when the Eurovision took place on the same day as the counting of the votes in the same-sex marriage referendum.

    There always has been a short main evening bulletin on Christmas Day. This is the first year when there hasn't been one on Eurovision night.

    I notice Sharon Tobin doing 6.1 news a lot lately, good to see she's a fine news reader, I interviewed her during my radio course many years ago (when she was in TV3 at time)

    I also notice that RTE aren't making any fuss about it maybe to save embarrassment if figures were low etc...

    Is Keelin Shapley not presenting 6.1 News anymore? Haven’t seen her on screen in ages!

    Shanley!

    Seems that they've taken presenters off for the others Maternity leave, Sharon Tobin seems to be the main news presenter on RTÉ now, I think she probably locks up at the end of the day also!

    I prefer the way it is now. You never know from day to day who'll be presenting. Ray Kennedy, Sharon Tobin, Eileen Whelan, Vivenne Traynor, Keelin Shanley are all grand.
