Quite surprised the Ian King show is still going TBH though guess it brings in some desireable demos, even if it's an odd time for a business oriented show.

I think they keep it going as it is the extent of their business coverage these days (the hourly updates were dropped in 2016).

The 10:00-11:00 slot is after the start of the business day in the UK, so it's a good time to analyse any company results and allow guests to get to the studio in the City for an interview or a DTL from the USA. It can also just revert to other breaking news if required.

If there is an important business story during the day, Ian King does pop up again to do reports from the City studio.
