BBC World News is very US-focused, so it probably is of relevance. It’s definitely not of much British relevance, however. I suspect Sky News would have dropped it if something newsworthy happened here, but the BBC would have been reluctant to.
The 11:15am opt-out is a sore point of mine. Regularly, at around that time, the BBC News channel has done the headlines and a report, then goes into an interview. Invariably, the quarter-past-the-hour headlines are dropped from the running order. So there is no clean place to opt, it makes the whole thing very awkward and disrupts the flow of interviews.
