Leaving aside Christmas/New Year, English bank holidays these days tend to be a 20 minute News at One (at 1300), followed by 10 minutes of regional news. Then all the rest of the schedule needs to do is replace a 45 minute programme with a 60 minute version later in the afternoon, to get back to normal

Varies over Christmas/New Year, including for the past couple of years, the News at One has reverted to normal length on the normal weekdays between Christmas and New Year.
