Why do people think this isn't "clean"? Other countries may well be non-English speaking countries so surely it doesn't matter?

Anyway, if this were true, then they should keep *everything* completely child-friendly and broadcast no distressing images or anything like that at all as any child might be watching in a foreign country.

Moving on...

Or at least double heading with Martine and the World presenter?

BBC 1, NC And World continuing with Martine Croxall in studio E


Like Maxine Mawhinney on Diana, will Martine continue all night? As we are dealing with rules that are all arguably less significant than someone being killed in this incident, I am now worrying about health and safety of news presenters staying on shift beyond 5 hours.

I'd be very surprised if Martine stayed past 2am (I'm expecting a move to C and presenter change at 01:30 if I'm honest), she has been on air since 7pm and is almost certainly due back on air at 7pm tonight.


Do we know who is the duty world presenter? Is it Lebo? She has been tweeting out this morning but haven't seen anything in the last half hour.

'The Watershed' is a British concept.


Quite. Although other countries, such as New Zealand, do have equivalent concepts.

I was thinking it could be Duncan Golestani who did last night and has been tweeting but Lebo is also a possibility. Kasia Madera has also been active on social media.

Living in New Zealand, the language was played out late morning on a Sunday, language like that normally wouldn't be heard till after 10:00pm

If I'm honest, I haven't heard what the word is, I don't know how bad the word is. But this will still be shown in the US and in Australasia.

Is there a clip of this?

It would appear that they are preparing to move over to C, Greg Dawson seems to have left the studio and Martine is getting a lot of sound bites ready that could be repeated all night while a junior presenter holds the fort.

Are the BBC really doing two separate lives from opposite sides of the road?

Its the worst swear word you can say if that helps you guess it.
