Do we think that the One presenter will continue to do NC till 4, even after the summer perhaps?
Can’t imagine the likes of Sophie Raworth doing that (should she ever properly return to the One).


With the cuts, I would think that the current schedule shall forevermore continue into the future.

Enough work for her on the six and ten

Totally agree, it's worked very well as it is.

I agree too, for the first time in a long time I'm happy with the schedule. Much more consistency.

Lockdowns over! Reeta at One!!!!!

Guess Jane is unavailable, guess Martine will be on at 16:00, normally does the 11:00 shift

Clive Myrie on at 4 (I guess he will do the Ten too). Martine must be on holiday too.

Clearly the cuts haven't started yet. Freelancer Rachel Schofield on air this morning while multiple on staff presenters continue to work a shortened week.

Which says everything you need to know about the culture at the BBC. This isn't about some imaginary move to 5 day weeks but people returning to their contracted numbers of days. Freelancers shouldn't be appearing while 2 presenters who are contracted for 4 days each continue to share a shift over 5 days meaning they are only working 2.5 days a week.

How many are contracted for a set number of days per week? They may well be contracted for a number of programmes per year.
