Brexit must be one of the most hard to plan for news stories for a long while. The broadcasters must hae to have plans for loads of different scenarios.

I imagine there are plans for March 29th and 30th, for if Brexit does actually happen. But outside of that they probably won't have much planned, there isn't really anything that can be planned

I’m sure there are loads of ridiculous OBs planned for March 29th/30th, millennium bug style, expecting something to happen there and then.

Well, if there's a hard Brexit, I imagine we'll immediately see disruptions and other changes at airports, ferry terminals, and other points of entry to the UK.

There will be somebody sitting in Studio E in case Huw falls off air.

My guess it would have been Ben Brown who was on the News Channel afterwards.
