Just to add, there is a set ad break pattern but not set times due to the nature of news. The programme PA and TX in Chiswick agree clock times and on/off air times a short while before tx. TX will also confirm the number and duration of breaks and also, most importantly, if certain of those breaks must be ‘away’ before a certain time to keep within the COSTA rules. Just for info.
