The iPlayer is back - and I can therefore point you to last night's ten o'clock bulletin on BBC1. I was alerted to the last piece - starting at 27 minutes - by a distinguished colleague who wrote "Was it news, promo, or, perchance, merely b*llocks ?"

It's possible the item, a preview of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, wiped the entire annual graphics budget in just over three minutes. Sophie Raworth tottered through imaginary landscapes of Pixar-ambition, and I reckon most of the audience won't have listened to a word she was saying. It certainly seemed to amuse Huw. One presumes the planners have one up their sleeve for tonight.
