BBC/STV Scotland News

What replaced the 1.55pm bulletin, and was it Lookaround for stv viewers on good morning Britain again?

I didn't see Lunchtime, but with the last strike, it was just some STV promos and an STV Weather forecast. We did indeed see ITV Border bulletins during GMB again.

It's a tad annoying as well that ITVX doesn't carry any regional streams apart from London. Lookaround would have been at least something even if it only had a couple of Scottish stories.

There are regional variations of ITV1 on some tv app versions of ITVX which are allocated by postcode.

They're matched currently to ITV1's HD macro regions, so if you live in Leeds, you'll get Granada instead of Yorkshire North.

Surely anyone who wanted Scottish news while STV journalists were on strike would just go turn to the BBC rather than trying to find a stream of an ITV region targeted at the borders?

A scan through the stories published on Wednesday shows quite a lot of Press Association material (be it Scottish or UK / international content), though there were a few articles with an 'STV News' byline.

Interesting to note they also take stories from the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS).
