Do we know what ITV are going to charge advertisers for the first break in half time, and first break after the game/before extra time?

Suspect we are talking X-Factor final rates or even higher for a 30" spot.

I read an article suggesting up to £500k for a 30 second slot.

Nicely done

One of my jobs is the sometimes thankless, highly complex, dry, task of telling 1,700 BBC staff what time and for how long news bulletins run on a given day. The France Belgium match provides some challenges to the sechdule. But I couldn't resist. @BBCSport #WorldCup pic.twitter.com/JbO4jMw5vt

I presume N&R stands for Network & Regions?

That should fund ITVBe for another year then.

Lovely opener from Clive tactfully referencing that it's only on ITV and hoping that he lives up to Brian Moore and John Motson commentaries of the 1990 semi.

With their fee for screening films? They're playing films instead of reality TV in the evenings now.

Have ITV got their own cameras in the crowd tonight? There seems to have been quite a lot of randomly inserted shots of England fans and hardly any, but normally timed, shots of the Croatian fans.

Don't be surprised if Love Island is moved to 10pm tonight on ITV2.

ITV will be delighted.

BBC1 had over 15m viewers for the other semi according to Lineker on Twitter - assume that is a peak rather than average.
