spectacular, great-looking LA-inspired news there. It looks like KNBC. I love the greenery! The format (news, weather, sports) also American-influenced.

Oh dang! You edited the Brissy Bullets story LOL. Seriously I loved watching this and thanks for uploading it but as an ol' Bullets supporter I got excited when it was mentioned the Bullets were coming up, and there was nothing! I just loved the 'Mr Squiggles" drawings on the weather map LOL

Great laugh at 9:30 with a chat about broken arms, great to hear Fordo having a laugh there too.
