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.
