Thing is that there's a lot more that can be made of the Euros, there's a lot more excitement in football and they can make a nice promo for it. Plus as you say they know it's coming.

The election caught everyone by surprise of course but the broadcasters had stuff ready.

This programme however is something they've just decided is going to be a thing on the last week, so it is a bit last minute. To be honest is it really worth making a fancy promo for? It's not as if they can just get a copy of it and clip up 28 seconds of exciting bits (if indeed there are any).

Yes, feels a bit of a missed opportunity to not have some election branding on the channels. But really it's a dry serious promo for a dry serious programme. It does the job

Let's face it - none of the broadcasters want the 7 way debates. They're just there to keep the smaller parties relatively happy and enable them to do the head to head ones which is where the interest mainly lies.


ITV Wales have announced their plans now - a three way debate between Labour, Conservatives and Plaid Cymru on Sunday 16th June across two hours (against the England match) then an interview programme the following night with the leaders of the other parties.
