Also noticed the US conventions aren't airing this year on BBC Parliament for some reason

Good to hear. 30 minutes shorter and headline sequences. What else could we be treated with?
Noticed Outside Source are finally doing the headlines sequence at the TOTH again.

I don't understand the secrecy. It's clearly going to be called something like US2020, or similar. It'll take us through until inauguration day. The programme has been advertised as 'coverage commences at 9pm, which means NC and World will be covering the DMC convention tonight and not just one hour.
I suppose it's too much to ask that it's called "The Last 100 days"
Katty has also just confirmed the programme with no name at 21:00

Would like to see it gone from the NC though. With the same number of presenters you can combine the 9-10 and 10.30 to 1am shift and create a new 6.30-9 NC only shift and a 9-1am simulcast shift. I'm sure the gallery teams could also be rejigged to make it work if necessary.
It's pretty rubbish that the simulcasts end at 9pm on weekends but two hours earlier at 7pm on weekdays.

Mmmmmm that 2001 overnight headline bed. But does anyone know why it was pitched up slightly compared to everything else? It's not even a full semi-tone, but the News 24 and World beds are all at the correct pitch (of B♭ for those playing at home)
I've been wondering this for 20 years. I make no apologies for essentially bumping this post, as it's a mystery up there with Lord Lucan.

Just a guess, perhaps the report was made for Breakfast without taking into account that it might also appear on the news channel.

Who's idea was this then..

Probably be one shift like before with Nancy or Maryam doing 19:00-22:00 like they did pre Covid
