A full list of broadcasters is available here.

It seems that in a lot of countries the broadcast is going out on the same channel but to different areas around the world - VH1, Star TV and M-Net seem to be the broadcasters in a lot of areas around the world.



M-Net's satellite footprint covers most of Africa south of the equator. Star covers most of Asia, so it's a bit misleading. Using the same logic, I'm surprised it doesn't say BBC 1 is broadcasting to most of near Europe too Smile

What's the betting that this will overrun......?

The production of the concert itself is pretty good - but the BBC1 programme itself is pretty poor. Maybe I just caught it at a bad time, but one of the links I saw earlier was utterly shambolic - with Claudia and Jamie not having a clue what was going on. And after the news break, there was a long, silent shot of the crowd, with someone who sounded like Andi Peters eventually shouting 'stand by studio'.

The safer bet is that BBC One will mess up the ending, whatever time it finishes. I'll have a side bet on an abrupt ending.

Yeah, there will be an awkward sound dip and then silence and a cut to a slide for Radio 2 or something.

The EPG has probably already messed up for anyone using Sky+. The news update at about 8pm was shown in the EPG as being the 10pm news (i.e the programme that follows this concert) so the recording would have had a gap in it at least.

Now (according to the EPG) the news is on again. Why, when its not even due on yet?
