Monday 7th March

10.30am ITV and Channel 4 daytime Ukraine coverage scaled back

Looks as though there no hourly news summaries on ITV this morning. And Channel 4 has returned to a five-minute summary.

2pm Rabiya Choudhry’s idents get another week on ITV

As is now the norm each week, the 1.30pm junction on ITV saw us move on to another set of ITV Creates idents. For the next week, we’ll be seeing idents produced by Rabiya Choudhry. These were first aired in June 2019.

4.30pm BBC makes news programme available to EBU members

From today the BBC will make a daily half-hour news bulletin (broadcast at 8pm GMT) available free of charge to other broadcasters who are members of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU).

Audiences will get the chance to watch Outside Source, normally presented by Ros Atkins, from Monday to Thursday, and a BBC News bulletin from Friday to Sunday. Given the current news agenda we expect the news to focus on Ukraine and related stories.

Wednesday 9th March

8pm Prominent mention for EastEnders at the end of The One Show

With it being such a big week for EastEnders, it’s perhaps understandable that BBC Marketing has deployed an additional tactic to try and retain as many viewers as possible, by inserting a prominent signposting of tonight’s episode at the end of The One Show.

Thursday 10th March

1pm Security alert disrupts This Morning and Loose Women

Today’s editions of This Morning and Loose Women were disrupted as a result of a security alert at White City.

11pm When BBC Northern Ireland’s The View met BBC Newsline

A minor blunder at the start of tonight’s edition of The View, when the headline bed for BBC Newsline kicked in. And it proved a little tricky to get rid of.
