It used to be on at eleven o'clock!

There wouldn't be any point in doing that, though, because the whole thing depends on a) Murray still being in it, because they wouldn't do it for anyone else and b) whenever the match happens to start, which they don't know until it happens. Until they do the draw they don't even know what days he's playing. The only thing they could do is have a message in the Radio Times saying If Andy Murray Is Playing, Programmes May Change.

Well, I doubt the ITV2 show will happen now because there's a piece in Broadcast today saying they're going to have a job doing both Mersey Shore and Desperate Scousewives because they've both approached exactly the same people and the same places. It says here that the E4 one is currently in pre-production and they've done some casting sessions while MTV's is a bit further away, but MTV have already approached one of the bars only to find E4 have already been there. I wonder if both shows will happen in the end, or MTV might just give up.
No doubt we'll be on Part 22 by the morning.
