It was always evident sacrificing the morning slot especially would be problematic for UK breaking news.
I do think even with the content produced now there is a bit of flexibility to shift one show to a UK focus, assuming they can now put out two rolling programmes simultaneously.
I assume there are currently two UK based World shifts in the morning then the branded shows at 12, 3, 6 and 8. For me as a starting point I'd have the morning World shifts stretched to 1pm, then branded 3-hour shows at 1, 4 and 7. That frees up one team to be UK only either airing either 9-12 or a split shift of 10-12 and 2-4.
