Election Night

After weeks behind the scenes at Sky News, picking the brains of the team who had just seven weeks to put together an election night show "bigger and better" than any before (so said Sky News boss John Ryley), the RTS spent the night at Sky News HQ to give you the inside track of what is going on off-camera at the broadcaster's biggest show of the year.

The weeks of meticulous planning and preparation are over. Tonight Sky is live in around 350 locations across the country to cover the General Election 2017. 

In the next 24 hours, the winners and losers of the General Election 2017 will be revealed, but for now all we can do is wait.

Paul Bromley, Sky News’ Editor of On-Screen Information is a stalwart of the overnight coverage, and shares his tips for all those poll-watchers and politics fans who are planning on following the coverage through the night.
