The challenge will always be a programme starting at any other time as presumably 5Live don't need to hit quarter or half hours usually.
That said the audience interaction on this programme is going to always make this harder.
It's a live programme with presumably limited amounts of pre recorded material. A simple opt point in the broom cupboard tradition "goodbye Northern Ireland" shouldn't be difficult.
It depends on how much the format of the programme has changed to adapt it for TV.
I can fully see a situation where the radio team take a dim attitude to changing the format of their programme to suit the whims of TV and BBC Two are just left to try and get out of it wherever they can. Particularly given that it would sound very weird to radio listeners having the presenter say goodbye to a BBC Two audience.
If they keep the usual 5 live format of bringing in the music under the last caller, having the presenter thank the caller and then tease the next hour's topic over the music, followed by the top of hour ident, it could be very difficult for TV to find a spot to get out as they really want to leave before the presenter starts teasing ahead to the next hour.
