It's pacy enough with live reports and live interviews that you wouldn't really have to change much visualisation wise to create a useful hour or 2 of simulcast...I used to work on PM - albeit ten years ago - and that was certainly the case then, and although there are/were plenty of live two-ways with reporters, two headline summaries in the hour, live interviews and studio discussions, 5 Live Drive would be a better fit - especially in the lead-up to the Six O'Clock News.
On simulcasting PM - isn't the issue there that they actually have much more pre-recorded reports, and it would be a question of how you 'visualise' that?
