Brexitcast will become the first BBC podcast to be turned into a television programme on BBC One. It will be on-air every Thursday night at 11.30pm, as announced at the Radiodays Europe Podcast Day in London, taking place today. Political Editor Laura Kuenssberg, Europe Editor Katya Adler, Europe Correspondent Adam Fleming and Political Correspondent Chris Mason, will continue the tradition of joining the discussion from wherever their news reporting duties take them, linking in to a state-of-the-art studio at BBC Westminster. The podcast will still be available to listen to and download on BBC Sounds as weekly episodes, with special emergency editions recorded as unpredictable and momentous Brexit developments dictate. The programme is due to start in September.
