A new era started at Sky Studios on Monday as Sky Sports News unveiled their brand new HD studio.
Sky Sports News has been providing the best sports news to our viewers since 1998 when Mike Wedderburn was the first presenter to go on air. Thirteen years later Mike and Kirsty Gallacher presented 'Good Morning Sports Fans' from the high tech facility.
"The move to our new home represents the biggest and most important element in our continuing drive to provide viewers with the most up to date and comprehensive sports news service available," said Andy Cairns, Executive Editor of Sky Sports News.
"The world of sports news has changed beyond all measure since August 1998. Fans are no longer satisfied with five minutes of sports updates at the end of the 9 o'clock news, they want a full picture of what's happening now and Sky Sports News provides this whether they are in front of a TV, computer, or using a phone.
"And the way sports news is covered has changed as well. With the huge investment we'll not only have a new look studio but we'll have a modern newsroom that will help us provide an even faster, newsier and more polished service.
"We're passionate about delivering the best sports news to our viewers. We'll have reporters live wherever possible covering breaking news and the biggest stories of the moment. All in high definition."
