Has Asia Business Report & Sport Today been cancelled by the strike?
I Just wondered as so far we've had The Bottom Line (Which was Scheduled) as well as Dateline London and Click which weren't, in it's place.


BBC WN still opt-out to Singapore for Asia Business Report, and Sport Today will most likely be recorded as usual.

Why all the graphic mess-ups if it's just the journalists on strike? Surely all the technical operators are at work as normal?

I think it's because of the recorded bulletins, they have to choose (or are limited) which output to record from, graphics and all so there was always going to be a "mess up" unless they recorded both World and domestic and played each out separately to their respective audiences.

BBC World News at 05:00 GMT, presented by Adnan Nawaz with Sally Bundock in business... not much difference as of yet.

EDIT: The Bottom Line is now airing on BBC World News... no business.
