So Brexit Day now changed... surprised we didn’t get a strap or a news report interruption from the main channels,.


Probably becasue it's the least suprising news of the year.

I’m guessing those news specials will come out of the schedule now, now that the 29th March has been formally removed, although as that was only a formality maybe they are thinking of keeping them in, and expecting people to relax on Friday night with 2 hours of Brexit.

What happens next who knows.

And soon the schedules for April 12th will need doing with the chance of a (no deal) brexit on that day not being ruled in time with the way things are going.

Rather than putting a News Special in and then removing it, it’d probably be best now to just publish normal schedules and then have news specials added as late changes as and when required.

Probably just a repeat of WILTY or Mrs. Brown at 9.30, and they'll throw a film in after the News at Ten.

As for Brexit, not a clue!

We knew that last week.

The schedule has now been changed, with WILTY at 2000, EastEnders 2030, MasterChef 2100, News at 2200 and Sliding Doors brought forward to 2235.

Lots of the news channel's presenters and lead editors/ correspondents don't work Friday, will be interesting to see tomorrow.

Most of the main NC presenters now work on Fridays and with tomorrow being the date of brexit until very recently I imagine that many who don't regularly work Fridays may have been expecting to work.

John Pienaar worked Tuesday, normally I think he works Thursday-Sunday starting with QT Extra on 5 Live, opposite Laura K Mon-Thu so I think they had already swapped days.
