And so it begins. Sky News to host the first leadership debate. It will be interesting to see if the NKOTB will also be given a chance to host one. (GB News).

Sorry, despite being of a certain age, I had to look up NKOTB (!!!)
Let's see if any of them can get all of the candidates still in the running by then to attend... I suspect we will be down to the final 2 by the weekend, but it does appear to be an unknown right now. Hard to plan!

When they say "The debate will take place at ITV's White City studios" I'm assuming they mean Television Centre, studio 2 or 3.

I'd watch if NKOTB were actually hosting one of the debates!

I think the BBC will land the last interview and that will be July 21st, when the last two candidates are announced.

Guessing Channel4 will be happy to skip debates, and wheel out the Andrew Neil interviews after the first rounds

The right age to remember NKOTB, but lucky enough to be able to avoid NKOTB! 
Meanwhile here are the candidates:

Ha, one of those strange moments when somebody you personally know goes viral and pops up in an unexpected place!
“First they came for the theme tune, and I did not speak out"
Last time around Channel 4 had the early debate followed by BBC this was when the field was down to 6 candidates. I should imagine we will be down to a similar number by Sunday.
Last time Sky would have had a Johson / Hunt debate but Johnson declined to attend so it didn't happen. They did however both appear on ITV and then the BBC followed a couple of days later with the one-to-one interviews with Andrew Neil.

Tuned into BBC World to find Beth Rigby interviewing Sir Graham Brady on College Green! He then walked off and met Ros Atkins, where he was then interviewed by Ros only.
I presume I cut into a pooled interview of sorts?
