Theresa May to talk after the result (which she will know by now).





Wonder if this will swing it the way of BBC One staying with the special.


I suspect they'll keep the special on air at least until 9:30 and bump the Apprentice to another night or move it to Two.

Seems an odd choice of presenter for something branded as ‘BBC News’, where is Huw Edwards?

It also shows very little respect to anyone who actually would like to watch the full edit. The fact that the why I fired them has been scheduled for 21:00 suggests to me that the slot has been left open for something to be moved into as I'm pretty sure that usually goes out after the news.

Yes, and it has to go out sometime after the penultimate episode too

The titles had the Politics Live style graphics but had a (badly made) BBC News Special logo.

To be fair it doesn’t really have to go out at all, it’s only clips of past episodes with a few comments from Sugar. After Graham Norton on Friday or Match of the Day on Saturday would be perfectly fine.

True, it's just filler... but it's an hour they've paid for so they may as well fill some airtime with it

Apprentice to tomorrow, why I fired them to Friday 23:25 and the Lockerbie documetory to Friday 21:00 in Scotland would make the most sense in my opinion. I can't see how have I got news for you will be able to produce an up to date edition with the current speed of the news anyway.
