Full review
Generally speaking you know what to expect from a BBC news team. However BBC News 24 does have a somewhat laid back approach to the news (not channel 5 laid back) in comparison to their main BBC1 shows. To fill every hour of every day with news is impossible without alot of "fillers" and as with all 24hour news channels BBC has its fair share. Aside from this there are easy to access interactive services to get to what you want, and constant scrolling bulletins to make sure you get the important stuff regardless of what the often amateur anchor is saying. If you like your news with a bit of flare this isn't the place, you would probably prefer the babbling of a Sky News presenter. BBC News 24 does cover alot of specialist subjects, and lcoal issues, and therefore may be of intrest to anyone who wants to hear more about the world outside of politics , business and tragedy.
