Fresh from announcing new distribution deals in the US and Burma, the BBC's international television news channel, BBC World News, is unveiling a new look next week when it re-launches from new studios in central London.
From 12 GMT on 14 January the channel will broadcast from new state of the art High Definition studios in the BBC's new London headquarters, the redeveloped Broadcasting House.
The channel will also feature a refreshed line-up of programmes and presenters, and will be investing heavily in additional news gathering capacity around the world.
BBC World News journalists will be at the heart of 'the world's newsroom' where the BBC's UK and international journalism teams have come together to provide output across digital, radio and television and 27 different languages, reaching an audience of 239 million people around the world each week.
Eventually, 6,000 people - more than a quarter of all BBC staff - will be based in Broadcasting House, one of the world's largest broadcast complexes, BBC said in a statement.
The channel will also debut new on air talent including Yalda Hakim, one of Australia's brightest international journalists, who has joined the channel as a current affairs correspondent and presenter for a new weekly current affairs programme.
