Did anyone watch this? I dont think they broadcast our election night over there.

@skyguy13 The UK is five hours ahead of the U.S. East Coast.

When Obama was declared President-Elect, it was 11 P.M. EST, but 4 A.M. Wednesday morning in London.

@skyguy13 The last few British election nights have been simulcast on C-SPAN in the U.S., and I believe BBC America also simulcast the 2010 British election night broadcast.

I loved the presentation of this election programme. ITV beat the BBC hands down in terms of graphics and style. I particularly love that majestic theme tune - perfect for an election night.
