I don't know if this this case for all Bauer stations, but on Absolute Radio they pre-record the bulletins during drive, so there was no announcement during the 6pm bulletin, so it was left to one of the drivetime presenters to make the announcement at 6.10pm between two records.

They finally got a bulletin out announcing the news at 6.30.

Which is a real problem when you have one newsreader doing pre-recorded bulletins for multiple radio stations up to half an hour in advance of them being broadcast (although most newsrooms were given the heads up about the King well before 6pm so no excuse really).
