Forgive me if this was previously mentioned but the WN Partner's Distribution website has released a tentative schedule for the world feed of the new BBC News on April 3rd:

www.bbcworldnews.com 


- All generic bulletins including overnights are officially renamed "BBC News"
- FoA returns at 1730 BST.
- Outside Source, The Context seems to be cancelled and replaced by generic bulletins.
- Sport Today at 1145, 1445, and is cancelled. It is replaced by WBR which got pushed back by 15 minutes. All weekend editions of Sport Today are cancelled too.
- 0745's WBR is extended by 15 mins and airs at 0730.
- Sport Today is renamed to Sportsday just like the NC, and will only air during overnights following ABR.

Basically, almost everything except for WNA, FoA and Newsday is axed, the majority of the schedule consists of bone dry generic bulletins. Feels like we're back to the 2000s cream and red era~

Based on my previous observations, the schedule posted on the distribution website is NOT FINAL and is subject to change. They might update it again in the next two weeks once decisions are finalized. The generic bulletins MIGHT just be a placeholder, there's no news yet on whether the new branded programmes will debut on April 3rd or at a later phase.

If this was previously mentioned, please do let me know, I'll gladly delete the post asap.
