BBC News: 8pm Summary

The BBC News Summary is a news update created by BBC News originally to target the professional and working market. It is broadcast every Monday to Friday at 8:00pm and 9:00pm on BBC One. The 10:00 am, 11:00 am, 12:15 pm and 3:00 pm updates were axed in 2013 as part of a restructure of BBC One's daytime schedule.

Like other BBC News bulletins it is presented by a sole newsreader, on Monday to Thursday it is usually Ellie Crisell and on Friday Riz Lateef. After a minute of brief national and international news, a regional presenter provides 30 seconds of regional news headlines and a brief local weather forecast; on BBC One HD in England a national weather forecast is broadcast instead due to there being no regional variations. 9Pm edition is pre-recorded preview to BBC News at Ten.

Famous quotes containing the words bbc and/or summary:

    To err is human, but to really foul things up requires a computer.
    —Anonymous. quoted in “Quote Unquote,” Feb. 22, 1982, BBC Radio 4.

    I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
