=== BBC World News shared programming history === On 1 October 2007, BBC World News started broadcasting ''[[BBC World News America]]'' and ''[[World News Today]]'' at 00:00 and 03:00 GMT respectively. ''World News Today'' was simulcast on the BBC News channel at 03:00 GMT. ''BBC World News America'' used to be aired as a reduced length, [[Time shifting|time-delayed]] version at 00:30 GMT, with ''[[ABC World News Tonight]] with [[David Muir]]'' also being shown at 01:30 every Tuesday-Friday. From 13 June 2011, the weekday editions of BBC News at 01:00, 02:00, 03:00 and 04:00 were replaced with ''[[Newsday (programme)|Newsday]]''. The programme acts as a morning news bulletin for the [[Asia-Pacific]] region and is broadcast as a double-headed news bulletin with [[Rico Hizon]] in [[Singapore]] and [[Babita Sharma]] in London. ''[[Asia Business Report]]'' and ''[[Sport Today]]'' are aired at the back of the first three hours of ''Newsday''. But Newsday changed to 23:00β02:00 on BBC News a year later meaning [[Mike Embley]] presents Tuesday-Friday ''BBC World News'' 23:00β02:00 with [[Kasia Madera]] on Saturdays and Daniela Ritorto 00:00β06:00 Sunday, 02:00β05:00 Friday/Monday. ''BBC World News'' and ''[[World Business Report]]'' air at 05:00. This was previously known as ''The World Today'', However, since November 2017 this was rebranded as ''The Briefing'' and ''Business Briefing'' on both channels and in lieu of commercials seen on the international broadcasts, the presenters gave a brief update on UK news for domestic audiences.{{citation needed|date=April 2018}} In June 2015, BBC News began simulcasting ''[[Outside Source]] with Ros Atkins'' on Mondays-Thursday at (during major stories 18:00) / at 21:00 and a new edition of ''[[World News Today]]'' Friday-Sunday at (during major stories Monday-Friday 19:00) 21:00. Since January 2017, they began simulcasting ''Beyond 100 Days'' (previously '100 Days'' and ''100 Days +) Monday to Thursday at 19:00, presented from London and Washington. During August, ''Beyond 100 Days'' is replaced by another edition of ''World News Today''. On 26 May 2022, as part of planned cuts and streamlining to create a "digital first" broadcaster, the BBC announced plans to consolidate the BBC News and BBC World News networks into a single service under the "BBC News" name.<ref name="BBC20220526"/><ref name=":0"/><ref name=":03"/> The merged service was slated to launch in April 2023, with the BBC stating that it would offer {{qi|new flagship programmes built around high-profile journalists, and programmes commissioned for multiple platforms}}.<ref name="BBCNews"/> The international version of the BBC News channel remains an advertising-supported service distributed by the corporation's commercial arm, [[BBC Studios]]. The domestic channel may opt out from the shared schedule to provide coverage of UK-specific breaking news, and would continue to carry UK-specific programmes (such as simulcasts of BBC One bulletins and ''Newsnight'') that are not cleared by the international channel.<ref name=":02"/> By the end of 2022, sharing had extended to 23:00β06:00 UK time, BBC News and BBC World News simulcast for the first 25 minutes of each hour with world news shown all through the simulcasts. In addition, the 10:00 hour on weekdays was simulcast and at the weekend, simulcasts run throughout the morning UK-time. The two channels also simulcast between 19:00 and 22:00. UK-specific rolling coverage had, by now, been restricted to daytime hours. As of Wednesday 15 January 2025, The UK feed has begun to simulcast the international feed from the hours of 05:00 to 13:00 BST until it breaks away for [[BBC News at One]] and the 13:30 [[BBC Sportsday|Sportsday]] edition. UK Viewers are now able to watch the 06:30 and 07:30 editions of [[Business Today (BBC News programme)|Business Today]] which were formally shown on the international feed only. The international feed breaks away at 10:30 BST to show [[HardTalk]]. At 17:30 BST [[Focus on Africa (TV programme)|Focus on Africa]] is shown whilst the UK feed stays with [[Verified Live]]. On occasions where there is a significant global story or if there is a delay to the network bulletin, the channel simulcasts the 18:00 editions of [[The World Today (TV news programme)|The World Today]] and the 22:00 editions of [[BBC World News America|World News America]], instead of [[BBC News at Ten]] and [[BBC News at Six]]. It is mentioned that in the case of major UK breaking news [[BBC Breakfast]] would be simulcast.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Team |first=The Clean Feed |date=10 January 2025 |title=UK BBC News channel to pilot global feed at breakfast |url=https://cleanfeed.thetvroom.com/22430/news/uk-bbc-news-channel-to-pilot-global-feed-at-breakfast/ |access-date=5 February 2025 |website=Clean Feed |language=en-GB}}</ref>
