Hi Martin,

My sources tell me that with the introduction of the new forecasting system,
they have removed the 18.57 forecast and now increased the length of 18.25.

I think two zooms around the country in one hour was thought too much

Never mind the invisible man, what about the invisible forecast? ....

once again, no 1857 issue (also listed in the 'Radio Times').

Curious.

Martin.

.... trouble is, we now have the time filled with 3 or 4 annoying
trailers; hasn't anyone at the BBC realised yet just how irritating
these are?

Agree Martin. They have always been my pet hate. The quality of programme
junctions gives us an indication of the type of people now in charge of the
BBC.

I did wonder what had happened to the later forecast.
However I always did think it rather silly when they introduced that
schedule a few years ago, a short forecast at 18.25 then a 'full'
one half an hour later. I'm glad they've now got just one slot for the
evening forecast.
