Have the Scottish and Welsh Parliaments' elections have always been on the same day as votes in England up until today? So, BBC/ITV have never had to do bespoke coverage for those elections yet?

Will be interesting to see if the networks just simulcast the BBC Scotland/STV coverage if the day arrives, or will they do something more.

Well they do do bespoke coverage in the nations concerned and if a Scottish Election happened on a date of it's own there would be no reason not to take the Scotland produced coverage.

Interestingly unlike for Westminster if an election does happen the 2026 election would still happen - it's only if an unplanned election happens six months befoe the due date that the expected election would be cancelled.
