And if head to head news is wanted, try it at lunchtime. Move the BBC "News At Ten" and put it back to 9 o'clock and possibly have the plaudits of saying "We still get more viewers than ITV" - that is how they will get more viewers because it is earlier in the evening. Alternatively, I would like to see how the BBC1 Late News would be approached if it aired after Newsnight.

Can't they do this with the Top Story at the top of every hour.

Let's be honest this forum can be a bit of a dry, dusty old place at times and it's difficult to get animated with endless discussions about the pros and cons of a regional opt-out from somewhere like BBC Port Stanley.
But at least have the courtesy if not the courage to leave in posts that send a small ripple across an otherwise stagnant forum.
You might not agree with them but perhaps if you didn't automatically delete everything that doesn't fit into your cosy and often unreal world of television you might get more people to contribute on here.
Otherwise it's like reading the online equivalent of BBC Four.... worthy but dull.
Thanks,
