wimbledon, the condition of andy murray's. dodgy hip and discussion of the baby his wife is on the way. a number of injuries sustained by the players during matches, the state of the grass on court and of course, the progress of our great british single hopes. all lapped up by like strobe losing cream by a fishy arnos. but not byjosh who wrote... on tuesday night it was not so much a question of tennis beating in the news as instead of the news, specifically some local news bulletins as it came up to six o'clock the british number one woman was battling out on centre court in her quarterfinal and it was decided to keep showing that much on bbc one instead of the scheduled news at six. meanwhile, and bbc two they have abandoned their plan wimbledon

coverage for unscheduled repeat as rain meant no other matches were being played, confused, john wilson certainly didn't understand the logic e—mailing... another viewer pat brown was also annoyed by this and record this video to explain why. hello newswatch, we have been subscribers to the radio time the many a year. but, come wimbledon fortnight perceptually might as well go out of the window. prime example was on tuesday, when at six o'clock the news was turned over to bbc two, can't wimbledon fans clip that channel? perhaps not. capping it all, no london news whatsoever that

night. why was that? not very good bbc. the london news was in fact shown that evening later than scheduled, but another part of the uk such as scotland and northern ireland the early evening regional bulletin. altogether. we hope to discuss the reasoning behind this with someone from bbc television but no one was available, instead they gave as the statement. it has been a month now since the fire at grenfell tower in london in

which at least 80 people died. of wednesday morning there was a report on the impact of the disaster has had on the local community, particularly in children. all the children here have witnessed unimaginable horror, we asked for a show of hands for those who knew someone show of hands for those who knew someone who had died. this is the beginning of the healing progress, but we know that feeling will take years, very long time. having watched that, once you have this to say... and justin pannell contacted us with

some general thoughts on coverage of the grenfell tower one month on... and another report on the aftermath of g re nfell tower and another report on the aftermath of grenfell tower came from mark easton on wednesday's news at ten. it began like this. a black nail hammered into london's conscience. g re nfell tower hammered into london's conscience. grenfell tower demands your attention. in its shadow the faces of the missing are everywhere. on
