I don't think the local news needs to be any longer than 10-15 minutes at lunchtime. Indeed that's almost a better bulletin than the full half hour evening edition to get your local news fix - the rest is arguably more features than news.
Indeed with the national news that's potentially a problem too - a half hour round up with most of the top stories in the first 15 minutes probably fits into many peoples day quite nicely, especially those working from home. Always felt the ITV Lunchtime News was a worse bulletin at an hour than it was at 30 minutes when they expanded in the Theatre of News era.
