It seems that on Sundays, Breakfast on BBC News (UK) now finishes at the same time as on BBC 1 - this schedule for Sunday 16 April shows Breakfast ending at 7:30am.

The 10pm bulletins are also only 10 minutes long on 15 & 16 April to allow for an extended documentary.

Another poor decision, isn’t that hour usually the best rating hour all week?

Indeed, both Sunday Breakfast, when it ends early on BBC One, and the weekend 22:00 bulletin on the News channel, especially when the weekend late doesn't air at 22:00, were consistently some of the strongest rating slots on the channel. Sunday Breakfast, in particular, was the only News channel slot to routiently beat 500k (for context, other high performing slots are typically around 100-150k) - with programming for the rest of the morning often also featuring in the channel's most watched due to the coattails effect.

Agreed, odd decision.
