Perhaps the winds are turning back the other way

Or more likely still a heavy reliance on freelancers with the fate of the famous five still not resolved.

I had a quick look through the Christmas schedules and it would seem that the yearly Review shows on the NC have been axed

The programmes are there on the 27th for me?

The programmes are there on the 27th for me?

Ah yes indeed they are. They're under a different programme listing to before which explains why I couldn't find them

Seem to be four episodes:

1.  The Biggest Stories
2.  The Year in Sport
3.  The Royal Year
4.  We Remember

Last word on FingerGate - I would have thought that considering the number of times they've had that issue where it cuts to the studio shot mid-countdown without any warning would make them particularly careful about what they're doing on set. For all they know it could have cut to them when the countdown was still on 20.

I think presenting the Saturday night bulletins on BBC1 a few days later is probably the last word on the matter.
