The BBC in particular have always been very careful about not starting those a second before 9pm (in fact, if I remember right, they always made sure the ident with the warning announcement would run post 9pm).if that is their policy, which is understandable, then commissioners should take that into account and commission 58 minutes instead. It does explain why the Sunday night season last year connected to this always caused the news to be post 2200.
According to iPlayer, Uprising ep1 is 59:10. With a 15 second watershed warning at bang on 9pm, that's finishing at 59:25, leaving you 35 seconds to intro the news before bang-on 10pm.
