Time differential BBC1

We watched Big Ben and the fireworks at a friend's place on an ancient CRT
set fed from a FreeView box. The lip sync on the presenter was miles out
at times. I also think the chimes got lost under the fireworks at one
point? I couldn't hear the TV clearly due to noise in the room - but sound
wise it seemed a bit scruffy. But that could have been down to the
listening conditions where I was.

No, the sound - especially the chimes - was crap.

Alos, why do they have to keep cutting to different views of the
firework display and to views of the crowd? Just one static shot
straight across the river would have been perfectly adequate and
much more enjoyable. I think they call it creativity or summat.

One reason was to show the couple that had just got engaged live on
air. Human interest I think it's called.

Wonder if they'll show the divorce next year?
