Few changes to the schedule.

Firstly Outside Source seems to be staying at 20:00 GMT at the moment. I presume this might be due to America not changing its clocks for a few weeks - World News America would therefore have to be in Outside Source's slot (at least as far as UK Time goes).

Secondly, the BBC World News simulcast on BBC Two at 11:30 seems to have been dropped. It's been replaced with another 30 mins of BBC News. This means that BBC Two and the News Channel now simulcast from 09:15-midday on weekdays (except Wednesday).

Only one week. US clocks change this Sunday. (The new edition of Business Live will air at 20:00 GMT on BBC World News from next Monday.)

Outside Source will now air on the NC at 20:00 also with an edition of BBC News at 21:00 on the NC with HardTalk at 21:30 to allow the Ten to be reheared.

For goodness sake! Massive UK constitutional news with the House of Lords vote, yet UK viewers now have to wait an hour until it is reported on properly. I am ever increasingly finding myself turning over to Sky.

I wonder if the 9 o'clock bulletin will be in E or A.

There should be a break-away from world. I certainly think this news warrants it. I never watch Sky but that's where I'm heading now.

A looking ropier than usual, Nick Owen's chair almost disappearing on the wide shot, and the keying on him not quite as convincing as usual.

Surprised they haven't come up with a better virtual set, the fake catwalk in particular is very poor.

Not an option any more. Part of the cuts

Newsday (00:00) seems to have reverted to showing a UK story instead of the world break.

Normally its the opposite of that, presenter standing when the sitting template is used.
