In the past when they've began at 6.25pm (and even 6pm) they've used the 6.30pm titles.
I don't understand why they don't just stick the PPB on at 6.25pm like they used to.
Also, it doesn't bother ITV that Big Ben doesn't actually "bong" on the half-hour. Look at old clips of News at Ten - and if it began late, the bongs used to be dropped!
As for the BBC - I guess thought dubbed "Ten o'clock News" etc. the titles aren't so time specific - so if the Ten begins within half an hour or so after 10 the titles still apply.
Also, though generic titles may be used for a scheduled late (or early) bulletin, in the event of the bulletin being delayed due to extended coverage of football for example, often the original titles remain intact.
