Sue Barker announced that Today at Wimbledon was starting on BBC Two, but it isn't there because QI had already started.

What a cockup. I didn't predict that in the bingo card, award yourself three drinks.

Ironically, Stephen Fry jokingly ended the show a minute prior. Kinda wish they'd opted out then...

At a guess. Not Going Out at 2240 dropped for regional news?

How did they end it, as it had already started? Was anyone recording QI?

Why would they need to do that?

Unless I'm mistaken, there's a 28 minute news bulletin that hasn't been broadcast. It wouldn't be the first time the 'main' bulletin has been on that late during Wimbledon.

Wasn't as good timing as you all thought then! 8 did wonder what they were going ti do when they ended pointing to BBC2 and QI was starting

But it did go out at 18:28, or at least it did in the Midlands
