What about Impact, Live with Lucy Hockings, Global?


The content won't be hugely different you'd imagine (still very heavily coronavirus based) but the branding and maybe who's presenting will be different.
Wouldn't be surprised if BBC News & World join resources in terms of presenters - meaning World viewers see Domestic anchors they wouldn't normally see and vice versa.

People take time off.

Laura doesn't just have any job you know.


Everyone can be rest assured Laura is OK. She filed a report for the Six. Laughing

According to the EPG on 19th March, on NC there will be no Worklife, VD, Newsroom Live, Afternoon Live, News at Five, Beyond 100 Days, all of them are replaced with a generic bulletin like this:

0600-0900 Breakfast
0900-1300 BBC News
1300-1330 BBC News at One
1330-1800 BBC News
1800-1830 BBC News at Six
1830-1845 Sportsday
1845-2100 BBC News
2100-2130 Outside Source
2130-2200 Newscast
2200-0000 News at Ten, Sportsday, The Papers etc... (The regular late schedule)
0000-0600 Overnight Simulcast

The NC will be on air at 9am after Breakfast, the schedule is very similar to the early NBH days, where daytime is just filled with generic bulletins. I'm not sure if they'll have double headed presenters in the daytime though, it would be my dream to see Simon McCoy and Carrie Gracie co-presenting again... Zipper

Weirdly, on the next day their schedule returns as normal with VD, Newsroom Live etc... I think they haven't updated it yet.

Well I think they still air Sportsday as they thought the coronavirus have affected a lot of sporting events such as delays in tournament, hence having Sportsday seems to be a good idea to inform viewers up to date with these kind of news...

Why are they continuing with Outside Source?

I can imagine The Papers going to one reviewer.

The only reason to maintain sportsday as far as I can see is that the sports team may be of little use in maintaining other BBC News services (being based in a different city and not all having a journalistic background). If it was purely in terms of usefulness it'd be Worklife that was being maintained as the economic and business angle has been rather overlooked in many of the generic bulletins.

I imagine the BBC Sport team are better being used to support Breakfast, BBC North West and radio services from Salford.

That looks a much better schedule anyway.

Derbyshire will obviously get to do rolling news at sometime as will the Politics team. I'd suspect Neil will pop up with some news specials election style on BBC ONE as the crisis moves on,

In line with other BBC employees in his age group I imagine Neil is currently on indefinite leave (unless he has a home studio in which case he may do bits for radio), with the political team already short of a deputy editor and at least one senior correspondant self isolating it may be that Coburn focuses on reporting the political implications rather than joins the NC pool of presenters.
AndrewPSSP, Brekkie and Ittr gave kudos
