BBC, BB and BAE

Spent the day chasing Jade Goody's agent and trying to track down specific footage of the BB house- the BBC has started archiving all its footage digitally through a system called Jupiter and nobody seems to know how it works.

Have volunteered to go on a quick training session next week so I can learn how it all works and then pass it on to the producers who's lives are hectic enough.

Researched Sunday's guests- Ken Russell's life and times in the BB house and Campbell's criticism of the decision to drop the BAE arms deal investigation.

Had a snoop around the main newsroom- met Natasha Kaplinsky and saw the News 24 studio. It's right in the middle of a newsroom- people's desks are virtually on the set and I'm amazed that poor unsuspecting people don't inadvertently wander across the screen more often. Apparently the weather person is forever shouting to people to keep the noise down when they're on air and I now see how the infamous interview with Guy Goma the computer expert/ taxi driver was possible!
