If anything changes, I will update the schedule above.
Update on February 21st – BBC are doing a 5 Live special on Thursday 3rd March, so I’ve amended the above schedule and title.
Update on Febrary 27th – Minor Sky change, Ted’s Notebook on Day 1 is 15 minutes long. However, BBC’s 5 Live special has been dropped from the schedules. It is not in their schedule for 3rd March, so it looks like plans have changed on that front. In its place is a 5 Live programme looking at the state of British tennis.
Update on February 29th – We can breathe again, 5 Live’s special is back in the schedule. Jennie Gow presents the show alongside guests to be confirmed.
