I've noticed that from next weekend, for at least 2 weeks (according to current Digiguide listings), BBC One are showing edited 15 minute versions of The Two Ronnies Sketchbook as a filler at 9:45pm (following the Proms), followed by the news at 10 o'clock.
Surely it would make more sense to either extend the Proms coverage and/or start the news earlier, as it often doesn't start at 10 on Saturdays anyway.

I would assume that extending the Proms coverage isn't an option.

Very little chance of that.

Has the Proms ever overrun?
In fact the repeat may not be needed of The Proms overun next Saturday.

Correct. Normally Proms coverage starts at 8 or 8.30, but the concerts always start earlier at 7.30. I go every year, and found out. When Katie Derham (or whoever) are doing the intro, it is usually recorded during the interim, or even as the previous prom is finishing.
The Last Night of the Proms can be a very fluid in its off air time, but a lot of Proms concerts are actually time delayed by half an hour or so and don’t generally overrun, because there is a fixed programme of music and encores are not usual (in the standard concerts at any rate).

The TV versions are almost certainly geoblocked, but you should be able to listen to any of them.

Are they available outside the UK?
