''BBC South East Today'' is the BBC South East regional television news programme, serving Kent and Sussex. Prior to its launch on 3 September 2001, most of the viewers in the region received ''Newsroom South East'', though some had been receiving ''South Today''. ''South East Today'' is produced and broadcast live from the BBC's South East broadcasting studios in Royal Tunbridge Wells with district reporters based at newsrooms in Brighton, Chatham, Dover and Hastings. == Overview == Launched on 3 September 2001, ''South East Today'' airs with short programmes and bulletins at varying times. The programme can be watched in any part of the UK (and Europe) on digital satellite on the BBC UK regional TV on satellite service. Launched with a sole main presenter Laurie Mayer, the programme was briefly the centre of a minor BBC scandal, after Mayer resigned amid accusations of management bullying. Mayer lost his case, but the managers concerned have since moved on. The show then became double-headed, with Beverley Thompson (formerly the programme's health correspondent) and Giles Dilnot presenting. In 2004, Geoff Clark joined the programme . Clark and Thompson presented the programme together for five years until their departure in September 2009.〔(BBC axes well-known TV presenters ), Kent Online, 12 June 2009〕 Long-serving weather presenter Kaddy Lee-Preston, who had been with South East Today since its launch left the programme in March 2012.〔(Popular weathergirl Kaddy Lee-Preston leaves South East Today ) Kent News, 4 April 2012〕 The main presenters are Rob Smith and Polly Evans with weather presenter Rachel Mackley. The programme's editor is Quentin Smith. The sports producer is Ben Moore. The main transmitters that relay the news are Bluebell Hill, Dover, Hastings, Heathfield, Margate, Royal Tunbridge Wells and Whitehawk Hill. Viewers in west Kent have the option of either viewing BBC London News via Crystal Palace or BBC South East Today via Bluebell Hill/Heathfield transmitters. As of 7 March 2012 (following digital switchover), the Whitehawk Hill transmitter (which serves the Brighton & Hove area) now carries BBC South East output instead of BBC South, and the region extends as far west as Worthing.〔(Brighton transmitters will be in BBC South East from 7 March 2012 ) UK Free, 6 August 2011〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「South East Today」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
