To answer my own doubts, it is true, they indeed are showing a game live on Tuesday. I wonder how they pulled that one out of the bag.

I'm glad that for once on ITV London they are ACTUALLY SHOWING an Arsenal game instead of Man F******U

Sorry but they are always on down here even if there is another team on the same day as ManU Manu is always shown

Just been on SkyD:

Wow - this is true! About time and all.

Why are the episodes of The Bill different lengths? Dodgy...

Yes that business with 'The Bill' is very suspect, Maybe some The Bill fans could watch both episodes and see what happens?

Notice at the end of Emmerdale, we were still ECP-ed 'The Bill Tommorow at 9.30'

Notice that on BBC & ITV News tonight, Highlight's from tonights match is 'Pictures from ITV Sport Plus'

Obviously, very London-centric then, as the match was shown on 15/16 ITV Regions!

The 'This Morning' soap thingy on Monday also said that Coronation St would be on later at 9:45 on Wednesday, when its just Carlton London that are showing it late.

Its happening again tonight remember.

Carlton even showed Emmerdale slightly EARLIER than everyone else, so they could get a long advert break in at 7.26pm.

On 15/16 ITV Regions, we've now got the unusual thing of Corrie being shoved to 8pm to make way for Regional Programming!

But what of The Bill? Why one 60 mins and another 45?

Chris Tarrant on WWTBAM: Hello and welcome to 'tonights' who wants....

At the end we didn't get the usual AND YOU CAN PLAY MILLIONAIRE ON LINE AT W-WW DOT ITV....

Chris Tarrant said 'We're back Sunday at 8.10 goodnight'
The YTV announcer then said 'And Who wants to be a Millionaire is back on Sunday at 8.10..'

Were the episodes of The Bill, the same episode?

However, he did say 'next on ITV1, the Bill' which would have worked for both nights.

Did Carlton London take the ITV Sport Channel presentation of the Arsenal match with Matt Smith or did Des present ?

Des presented, from a studio though, not the ground.
