In summary

The second NUJ 24-hour-strike, over compulsory redundancies at BBC World Service and Monitoring, produced some interesting logic. Nicky Campbell decided that the issue wasn't worth pursuing, and appeared at the mike for 5Live Breakfast, having withdrawn his labour last time. John Humphrys appeared alongside Sarah Montague on Today on Radio 4. 

For television bulletins, Chris Rogers fronted remarkably similar 6pm and 10pm bulletins on BBC1.  There was a slight over-abundance of business news, featuring Julia Caesar and Nigel Cassidy, and a management sequence with Jon Williams packaging grieving Norway, with voiceovers by Jonathan Baker, and Jim Buchanan on the strike itself. 

On Five Live John Inverdale appeared at drive time. On BBC1, The One Show team seemed to agree to an extended live strike-busting edition, replacing missing regional shows from 6.35pm. All very uncomfortable.
