It's questionable really whether you'd count the Sunday edition - it may be branded as the Ten, but it isn't really. Do they use the Ten editorial team, or just the Weekend team?
It is branded as the Ten - so it IS the Ten. This was a commitment made when the BBC moved the 9 O'Clock News to 10pm to run their late evening news at a fixed time 6 out of 7 days a week, when ITN were in their "News at When?" stage when you had no idea what time their news was likely to be.
It is produced by the weekend editorial team - which these days is a joint operation with News 24.
However many of the journalists who work on the Ten during the week, as well as those who work on the One and the Six, will also work on the weekend teams. They aren't a separate operation - the weekday teams work on the weekend bulletins as well.

AIUI the normal schedule is for Fiona to present two Ten O'Clock News bulletins each week, and Huw the other four. Unlike the One and Six - which run 5 days a week - the Ten runs for 6 days a week, as there is a Ten on Sunday. (Fiona usually presented the Friday and Sunday Ten O'Clocks)
