Title: Interesting terminology
Post by: bobm on March 28, 2013, 19:20:00
Nothing to do with transport - but you could be forgiven for thinking it was.

In the wake of the strike by two unions at the BBC today there is a page showing changes to the schedule.

Update 28.03.13, 2.40pm

BBC One

Tonight's Six O'Clock and Ten O'Clock news will run as scheduled.

Update 28.03.13, 2.34pm

BBC Two

Tonight's edition of Newsnight will not run.

So programmes run now rather than being shown/shewn*?

(*alternative spelling just for GWR fans!)

Can we expect news replacement buses?  :P

And do we get compensation if we have to take ITV News or Sky News an hour later?
