Sure they hoped for it. June I think Breakfast is moving to Reith. And Impact, Victoria Derbyshire, and then Global, Business Live, World Business Report - all happened in the Spring.

I rather like the new BBC Reith font, been using it at home and people have asked me which font it is.

What time today is it supposed to be launching then? Or has there been a crisis?

At this rate either 1 o’clock or 6 o’clock, although it could be before then

I don't think any insiders actually confirmed it is/was happening today, more a lot of speculation based on it being the start of the month and the Reith appearing during Breakfast last week. Whilst Reith appearing today would normally make sense being the start of the month I imagine there is the small matter of Trump visiting the UK which is taking priority.

Looking at Chris Cook's twitter account the past few days there's been no hints of a date with regards to Reith, though I did spot...
