One would presume there is no difference in NI to elsewhere - isn't it the many rounds that slow it down normally?
Even if Northern Ireland do choose not to count overnight, unless Leave have a lead of less than 1% then the result wouldn't be altered by altered by a late Northern Irish result - so we'd pretty much have got the final result.
And just to end the debate on colours we had a few months back - the BBC are using blue for leave and yellow for remain.
Are all counts overnight or do we have to wait for the likes of Northern Ireland?

I see the "Referendum Campaign Broadcasts" begin tomorrow, airing at 5.55pm on BBC2, 6.25pm on ITV, 6.55pm on BBC1 and C5 and 7.55pm on C4, beginning with "Vote Leave" on Monday then "Stronger in Europe" on Tuesday. The following week they air a day later due to the bank holiday, again with Vote Leave first.

According to the Guardian you're right about there being 12 different "regional collation centres" but apparently the results will be declared individually by each of the 380 local authorities (plus Northern Ireland and Gibraltar) as soon as they are known.
Yes, that's right. From what I gather, there's going to be separate counts across the different parts of my patch (Cambridgeshire) that night with all the results fed through to the regional centre. Only when the result has been phoned through can the individual declaration be made at that count. For example the city count will happen at our Guildhall, result phoned through to the regional count centre, then the result for Cambridge City (in/out) will be declared by the returning officer.
This could potentially prove interesting when you have separate counts which make up Cambridgeshire (East Cambs, Cambs City, South Cambs and Fenland), you can potentially see the divisions in in/out through different parts of the county.
From what I understand there will only be 12 regional declarations around the UK so won't quite be a sat truck fest as usual, Unless I've misunderstood the procedures.

Interesting that the national result will be announced in Manchester. I assume that the broadcasters will still be presenting from London even though you would expect most of the key figures they would want to interview to be in Manchester?

Join us live for the EU Referendum results programme, live from Salford. Joining Huw Edwards on the referendum sofa are Laura Kuenssberg, with social media from the Referendum Coffee Table. Andrew Neil will also join Huw on the interview wing of the Referendum sofa. Emily Matilis will be using the BBC's smallest ever BBC Results Programme touchscreen, and Jeremy Vine will use the referendum blackboard to explain the results as they come in.

Well the Beeb will be in Borehamwood which isn't London!
If they used Salford, they could convert the BBC Sports centre into the results centre.
ITV could do the chatty round table discussion but from either the Rovers or Roy's Rolls.
Also it'd be easier for guests to appear on both programmes throughout the night as they'd be literally next door.

What is the regulatory/compliance situation with Referendum Campaign Broadcasts? If, hypothetically, such a broadcast contained factual inaccuracies, would OFCOM have any juristiction?

Or they could just, y'know, hire HQ1 or HQ2 (almost the same size as Elstree D) and put the set they are using in Elstree in it

Some would say that last night's was based around one massive one but this probably isn't the place to comment
