The new programme will be presented four days a week by Jo Coburn, who currently co-hosts Daily Politics with Andrew Neil.

The new programme will be presented four days a week by Jo Coburn, who currently co-hosts Daily Politics with Andrew Neil. "I'm looking forward to presenting the show on Wednesdays when PMQs will be centre-stage." "With a conversational, unstuffy approach, we will keep viewers up to speed in fast-changing times and entertain them along the way.” Sunday Politics, hosted by Scotland editor Sarah Smith shortly after The Andrew Marr Show, will not be broadcast after July. "But given the need for BBC News to make substantial savings while offering distinctive content, it no longer makes sense for us to run two national UK politics programmes in close succession on the same day and the same channel." The Andrew Marr Show and This Week on BBC1 will continue to be broadcast.
