On Fridays, HARDtalk is at 22:30, with a BBC News bulletin at 23:00, though with the UK opting-out for Newswatch at 23:15 (which appears to be its new origination slot).Friday 7th is Good Friday, so no Newsnight that day.
Though, given Friday Newsnight typically lasts for about 32 minutes, not looking forward to that crash in. Presumably, they'll have to shorten Friday editions, although, given shorter Friday editions are purely a legacy of the long gone Newsnight Review/The Review Show, they could (though they almost definitely won't) return it to the same length five days a week.
