These are the changes to the ITV schedule, due to the change of the time of the Michael Carrick Testimonial, and not wanting to put the Britain's Got Talent Final up against the concert on BBC One.

On Saturday, a shorter 30 minute edition of You've Been Framed at 17:00, with ITV News and Take Me Out brought forward half an hour for the Britain's Got Talent Final at 19:30, normal schedule at 22:00

ITV original schedule for Sunday:
12:15 The Queen
14:25 Tipping Point
15:25 Michael Carrick Testimonial
18:15 ITV News
18:45 Catchphrase
19:30 Britain's Got Talent
22:00 ITV News

New schedule:
12:15 All Star Family Fortunes
13:00 Tipping Point
14:00 Michael Carrick Testimonial
16:45 The Chase
17:45 You've Been Framed
18:45 ITV News
19:15 Catchphrase
20:00 The Queen
22:00 ITV News

On Tuesday, the British Soap Awards replaces Midsomer Murders, 20:00-22:00. The awards were due to be shown live for the first time, it will now be recorded on Saturday and shown on Tuesday.

STV are showing their Election Debate at 20:30 on Tuesday, so not showing the Soap Awards. I can't see it rescheduled anywhere.

There is also a knock-on effect on TV3 who were due to show the BGT final and the BSA simulcast with ITV. They will simulcast BGT at the new time, do their own thing Sunday night, and on Tuesday will show the BSA but an hour later than ITV, at 21:00 in place of their film, War.

BBC One and BBC Music today announces broadcast plans for One Love Manchester, the special concert to be held on Sunday 4
June at Emirates Old Trafford Cricket Ground to honour and raise vital funds for the victims and families who were tragically affected by the Manchester attack after Ariana Grande’s show last week.
The concert will feature performances by Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, Coldplay, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Pharrell Williams, Take That and Niall Horan, with added acts today including Little Mix, Robbie Williams and Black Eyed Peas.

As well as being the host broadcaster for international television networks, the concert will be broadcast live on BBC One, BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 5 live, BBC World Service and BBC Radio Manchester, as well as commercial radio .

The BBC One coverage, broadcast from 6.55pm to 10pm, will be presented by Sara Cox and Ore Oduba, with Nick Grimshaw and Anita Rani hosting from backstage and in the crowd.

Between 6.30pm and 10pm, BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Radio Manchester will join together to simulcast a programme hosted by Scott Mills, Jo Whiley, Phil Williams and Becky Want live from within Emirates Old Trafford Cricket Ground. Between 6.30pm and 7pm, the four presenters - with guests - will be providing all the context and build-up before the concert starts. From 7pm all the live music and action from the concert will be featured with Scott, Jo, Phil and Becky providing a unique commentary especially for radio listeners.

Bob Shennan, Director of Radio and Music says: "The One Love Manchester concert on Sunday will be a very special occasion that resonates throughout Manchester, around the UK and across the globe. BBC Music will unite radio services with BBC One to offer the best possible coverage of this unique national event.”

Earlier this week, Tony Hall, Director General said: "Bringing the nation together, the BBC is proud to be broadcasting what will undoubtedly be a moving tribute to the victims and their loved ones."

All net ticket proceeds from the show will go towards the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund, set up by Manchester City Council in partnership with the British Red Cross.

One Love Manchester on BBC One was commissioned by Jan Younghusband, Head of Commissioning, BBC Music. Television coverage of the One Love Manchester concert will be executive produced by Guy Freeman, Editor Special Events and Formats, BBC Studios.

What exactly is "BBC Music" that seem to have announced this alongside BBC One?
DV
DVB Cornwall
The all encompassing BBC Music department that oversees all music output on Radio and some TV, ensuring that it works collectively well and that duplication doesn't occur. Also used as a brand exercise online and as a search mechanism.

EDIT - Also manages BBC Introducing on behalf of all Network and Local Radio stations, maybe it's most crucial role going forward.

Little Mix, who were due to perform on the final of Britain's Got Talent have been confirmed to play the One Love Manchester Concert, and Robbie Williams too who I expect to play 'Angels'?.

So is that basically all heritage ILR available on FM?

Also no wonder people do Strictly, Ore has gone from doing the sports news to fronting the biggest show in town.

That will result in a near infinite choice of differing, but all hideously over-dynamically processed versions of the concert.

A pity BBC Radio 3 aren't taking it, that would be the best chance of hearing it on the wireless properly !

Have you seen the line up? I'm not sure there'll be much in the way of dynamics leaving the stage!
