One night stand

Scotland may be "deciding", but the BBC can't make it's mind up about who should cover the outcome - so we get two tv programmes. On BBC1 (except Scotland), BBC News and BBC Parliament, overnight results coverage features Huw Edwards, Nick Robinson, Jeremy Vine, Sarah Smith (not in the BBC Scotland team, it seems) and Andrews Marr and Neil. On BBC Scotland, you get Glenn Campbell, Jackie Bird, Brian Taylor and Laura Bicker.

The various radio schedules have yet to be published.

Decision Day+1, and BBC1 Scotland offers a Reporting Scotland Referendum Special with Sally Magnusson from 0915 to 1300; BBC1 in the rest of the country, metaphorically or for ever, offers Rip Off Britain, Homes Under The Hammer, Street Patrol UK, Caught Red-Handed and Bargain Hunt. Says something about schedulers' thoughts on who cares about the result.
