3) "It's an old man in a queue drinking tea" My favourite logo that one.
I think you mean "Aged man in a queue drinking tea"
You know Aged.....sounds like H.....there you go.

I liked it. I do agree with some of the other member in saying that this format would be cool as a special every now and then. I personally like the old format more simply because the pacing seems to be a bit faster. Actually seeing the four of you together, bouncing off ideas to one another is kind of interesting to watch though. So... yes, but no, but yes...but no...but yeah.

Wait. You mean to tell me that thing in the background is an E and 2 Ns? I always thought it was a fishing hook in some squiggly water. Cause like you guys are like fan boy baiting.

I like it as a change of pace, but I'd rather see the news format more often than not. I could see it done once in a while, like when you hit your 5's and your 0's.
me to as a occasional thing its great

Good to see a cool mix-up of the ENN format. However, it feels like you've tried to go for a kind of casual conversation 'fly on the wall' documentary style here, and some of it comes off a little staged.
You could take a similar idea but play it out as a busy newsdesk with loads of stories coming in.
There's tons of great comedy / news ideas in Chris Morris' 'the day today' and 'brasseye' genius stuff. I love his hardcore anchor character!

(- this stuff is really old, but there's some great stuff here)
I love the standard ENN format, and I'd say it works better than this. But the newsdesk is cool too, I agree with people saying it'd work well to get this formula working, and to mix up shows between this and standard ENN studio shows.
GREAT WORK AS ALWAYS!

It was funny...but not as good as the original format. I wouldn't mind if this was the format for a "slow news" week, and then big news weeks the other format and switched back and forth.

I enjoyed watching this more than your regular ENN show. The lack of title shots between segments made it much more enjoyable, although I think Graham looks much better in a suit. Now Kathleen just overshadowed her co-anchor with her feminine presence. No, I'm not gay, I just happen to think so. The whole idea of the newsroom felt more much down-to-earth, and I liked it that way. Also, while I do occasionally think the subtexts are fun to read they distract me from what you are saying. It's hard to read one thing and listen to another thing at the same time, especially since the subtexts speed by pretty quickly at times.

I like this change, and hope to see more newsroom clips.

LRR's brilliant humour shines through in this format much better than the often awkward ENN episodes. ENN:phailhaus has my full support.

I have to agree with a lot of the previous posters. My first thoughts on seeing this were:
ENN+Phailhaus=awesome
