Just had a peek over on digitalspy, to see what posters thought of the launch, pretty funny TBH. 
Why does this look like it’s coming from a bunker, are we about to be nuked?
It makes Alex Salmond's Alba launch look professional.
Rather fuzzy isn't it. And becoming more out of sync every minute.
About 50 years out of sync!
Why is everything black. Andrew blends into the background with that suit.... It looks as if the channel is in mourning.
Already?
This is a historically poor TV channel launch. After all the hype, it's literally a bloke sat in a shed with a broken microphone broadcasting over dial-up internet.
Looks like Neil is sitting in one of those old public toilets.
I've never seen anything like it, makes that Alan Partridge chat show comedy look professional.
Think most are just astonished at the shoddy and damn right hilarious production values on show.
I think this channel is going to be a compulsive watch, before it crashes and burns. 'Appointment to view' says Andrew Neil. Yes, but not for the reasons you think.

I am not going to link to their twitter account, but they have tweeted ratings from last night -
BARB Data 1900-2300
#1 GBNews 164.4k 1.1 share
#2 BBC News 133k 0.9 share
#3 Sky News 57k 0.4 share
* Share is total share of all TV viewing in the UK.
That may look shocking at first, but Sunday evenings don't produce big ratings for news channels, and clearly there was some interest in their launch, I doubt they will ever be in that top position again, and I doubt they will ever tweet ratings again.

Doesn't really have the drama for a car crash. It's more like watching someone get the hang of their mobility scooter.

Yipchaa!
As often is the case, I do wonder if those it is aimed at will care enough about these flaws to stop watching. I wouldn't be surprised if they either a) don't care or b) don't see them as flaws, and turn into a dedicated following, propped up by the outrage market.

Why don’t they revamp it? I dunno, something like the weather in Norwegian

Still think just having a tea set in one bit and then leaving the others empty is odd, so I'm not totally climbing down from this

So many particulars. So many questions.

not now while its billy basic and amateur but if it starts getting the ratings he'll be on that like a fly on shit.

On the webstream the video lags the audio by about half a second, making it unwatchable.

The technical issues are not really the main problem. Being out of synch and occasionally giving the impression that the sound engineer is King Tubby would be neither here nor there if the content wasn't impossibly dull. Maybe they have some show that will turn out to be an ace up their sleeve. But it seems to work on the premise that you can just point a camera at Michelle Dewberry and expect her to say something interesting. Even experienced broadcasters are going to crash and burn based on that model.
