I don't have access to all the BBC World News regional variations due to geographical restrictions, but I've did something similar in experiment capturing one of the junctions leading to the BOTH programme of the Europe and Asia Pacific feed as shown below: (Watch in fullscreen!)
On the main screen you'll see the Europe SD feed taken from Eutelsat Hot Bird 13B, while on the top right you'll see the Asia Pacific HD feed from Intelsat 19. The video was taken from 2018/03/18 1730 GMT. At that timeslot, the Europe region had Politics Europe for the BOTH programming while other regions had Newsnight. You'll see how Red Bee Pres handle these regional variations in aspect of weather reports, commercial breaks, and recorded programmes in this video.
BBC World News | 30th October 2017 Onwards
Since when did they start doing news reviews on weekends. Tanya Beckett is hosting the 0500 GMT half hour and they spent about the last ten minutes doing a news review which seemed to focus on Brexit. Maybe it’s a one off.
I’d like to see a comparison of all the different feeds World News has. North America seems to deviate most from the schedule with different programs and likely special broadcasts for PBS simulcasts. Additionally there are programs advertised or teased during broadcasts or breaks that never air here. Some programs don’t air due to rights issues as well. I forgot but one entire series couldn’t air on World News because Al Jazeera America had the rights even though it was a BBC show and commission.
Having watched the North American feed recently, it is interesting the volume of adverts compared to the European version... online pet food, property websites etc.
