I tuned in at about ten thirty to see News 24 on BBC One, I Know there is a scheduled news special at noon on BBC One. Does anybody know what time this programme began and if it broke into a programme or into a programme junction

The gun battle started about 10:05am, so I would imagine it was a short time after.

BBC finished their NEWS24 coverage on BBC 1 at 13:00. Follwed by One oclock news.

Neighbours is now on BBC1 at 13:40. Coverage still continuing on BBC News 24 though.

Just spotted this too. Leaving ITV as the only terrestrial channel carrying this. No on-screen reports at all on BBC1 now... Never thought I'd see the day Sad

I wonder if BBC1 will decide to stick with the coverage or revert back to Murder She Wrote (is that programme really apt after such an event???)
