Were they worried about getting done under the Trade Descriptions Act for having largely given up on business reporting, leaving a programme that is largely just talking heads.

More seriously, the only substantive changes are that the 16:40 non-WBR update is now listed at 16:30, while the 14:30 bulletin now moves to New York, presumably presented from their cupboard by the New York business correspondent. I doubt the format will change and suspect it'll continue to be a bit of a drag on the already slow-paced nature of the channel (personally, I'd rather have the quicker 4' NC business summaries every hour than an 11' slog of business talking heads every two/three).

So they are finally getting rid of World Business Report that’s been one for ages on bbc world news, will be sad to see that go, it seemed to be the only programme that turned studio C with a blue colour theme.
