BBC Programming Thread

A rare opt out of the Saturday night schedule tomorrow night as the BBC air the Stereophonics Live from the Principality Stadium at 8.40pm on BBC1 Wales and BBC2 elsewhere. 

Means we have in Wales:
BBC1: 7.05 Weatherman Walking, 7.25 Weakest Link, 8.10 Catchpoint, 8.40 Stereophonics, 10.40 Would I Lie to You, 11.10 A Simple Favour
BBC2: 6.50 Paul McCartney at the BBC, 8.20 Pointless, 9.10 Casualty, 10.30 BBC News, 10.50 Later, 11.40 Dads Army

And elsewhere:
BBC1: 7.05 Weakest Link, 7.50 Catchpoint, 8.20 Pointless, 9.10 Casualty, 10.30 BBC News, 10.50 A Simple Favour
BBC2: 6.40 Dads Army, 7.10 Paul McCartney, 8.40 Stereophonics, 10.40 Later, 11.25 TOTP2

Of course, this is slightly more complicated than it was going to be because, for the second week running, that episode of Casualty is causing problems - it's actually going out this week, but it's been punted after the watershed. So it was supposed to be a fairly straightforward switch at 8.40 with Casualty and the news going to BBC2 and Stereophonics to BBC1, but now Pointless has to go with it as well and everything shuffles around.

Do love the news being relegated in Wales for a Stereophonics concert. Didn't even do that with Live Aid!
