Friday at 18:00 is likely to be the final BBC World News bulletin, but Monday at 0500 for the UK NC is listed as BBC World News, so this could hint at the full switch over to the single service happening at 9am on Monday.

Just to confirm this - the name change from BBC World News to BBC News is at 09:00 BST on Monday.

From that point, the UK feed becomes an opt of the core channel of what up to that point used to be World News. The UK opts out at the following points on weekdays with everything else following the core schedule:

06:00-09:00 Breakfast

10:30-11:00 BBC News (instead of HARDtalk)

13:00-13:30 BBC News at One
13:30-13:45 Sportsday

17:30-18:00 BBC News (instead of Focus on Africa)
18:00-18:30 BBC News at Six
18:30-19:00 Sportsday

22:00-22:30 BBC News at Ten
22:30-23:10 Newsnight

23:30-00:00 HARDtalk (except Friday: Newswatch and Talking Buisness)

03:30-04:00 Different versions of the same half-hour programmes on the core feed (not sure why - breaks edited out maybe?)

Thanks for this - presumably in a few weeks time, Monday - Friday 0900 - 1100 will be added as a UK opt-out so UK viewers can enjoy "watching" Nicky Campbell's radio phone-in (roll eyes)
