They do seem to use BBC4 more during the World Championships than the other tournaments. Will be interesting to see if those 9pm shows are dropped to continue coverage - would surely would make more sense to schedule through to 10pm and add the snooker related content in should they finish early.
I think I heard once they're content that helps fill a quota, with IMG Scotland producing the BBC snooker coverage.
Quite likely those 9pm shows will be dropped I'd think. What would happen with TOTP is another matter though. There was quite a bit of internet pushback last year (or during the Masters in January?) for keeping pushing it back until when the snooker rejoined BBC Two after Newsnight.
