Remember the last time the PM had a statement outside No. 10. Was totally useless and pointless. I hope this will not be another waste of time.

I wouldn't bet on that come Friday Week as surely she can't last much longer if we do leave without a deal next week and before everyone starts talking about the extension, i saw a rumor this afternoon that the French plans to veto it and if that happens, it's surely curtains (as all 27th counties have to approve the extension)!

It'll be a statement along the lines of the usual stuff.

It won't be an election. Generally those who want an election suggest that's what it will be, spread it around, and then moan and complain when it isn't, despite the fact they made it up in the first place!

I'm not sure what an election would sort 9 days before Brexit!

The PM's statement might be relegated to BBC Two, the last one was. So Holby might be safe.

Might not even make BBC2 if it just her talking about her deal. Only a resignation or election calling deserve programe interruption.

Quite frankly, as 'Channel of the Year', I think Cbeebies should air it. Laughing
Brekkie, TVVT and BBI45 gave kudos

No schedule changes on any channel are scheduled, so in terms of the remit of this forum, nothing is happening.

Yep-the best we're getting this time is possibly a Newsflash at the end of Holby City.

Unless she does a u turn and announces her resignation/ a general election then it might be interrupt time. Both have been ruled out so 99% shouldn't happen.

Although Theresa May making an address tonight was ruled out by Downing Street just hours ago as well.

Its possible everything could be announced? IE she will make clear, if her deal can't be done then she will resign and trigger an election. Its like Routleet, you can try and predict were this is going but you may be in for a nasty shock..

Either that she's going to announce because of the potential veto's by France and now possibly Spain and Belgium, we're leaving next Friday with no deal.

A few hours ago some suggested normal TV schedules were going to be ripped up, in reality even the News Channel schedule isn’t being ripped up, and we aren’t even getting an hour of proper UK news. There is probably a lesson to learn here to stop getting over excited.
