BBC drops the One Show from schedule in major change
Unfortunately, fans of The One Show will have to find something else to watch this week as the beloved lifestyle program won't be airing as usual. The BBC has decided to make some changes to their schedule, which means that The One Show will not be on the air this week. Usually, the show airs on weekdays at 7pm on BBC One and is hosted by a dynamic team consisting of Alex Jones, Jermaine Jenas, Roman Kemp, and Lauren Laverne.

However, this time, the show won't just be moved to a different channel to make room for other events. It has been completely taken off the schedule to make way for the coverage of Wimbledon 2024. While The One Show has been moved to BBC Two in the past to accommodate for important sporting events or political debates, this time, the decision has been made to remove it from the schedule entirely.

Host Alex Jones announced the change last week, informing viewers that the show will be taking a break and will return on July 8th instead. This schedule change is just one of many happening this week, as the BBC is also busy with the ongoing coverage of Wimbledon, the Euros, and the UK General Election on Thursday. It's a hectic time for the network, and they have to make some tough decisions to ensure that everything runs smoothly.

Last week, Stacey Dooley, popular soap actress and journalist, made a brief appearance on The One Show. The team was joined by Hollywood star Celia Imrie, known for her role in the hit movie Bridget Jones. However, things took an unexpected turn when Stacey had to abruptly leave the set to make it to her West End show, 2:22 A Ghost Story, in time. Roman Kemp jokingly mentioned that she had a motorbike waiting outside, and Stacey made a hasty exit, showing off her showbiz side.

Soap fans will also have to adjust their viewing schedules this week, as EastEnders will be airing in two double bills on Wednesday and Thursday instead of its usual four-day week schedule. But don't worry, you can still catch up on all the drama on iPlayer as episodes will be released as usual every morning.

Aside from The One Show, other popular programs like Bargain Hunt and Escape to the Country will also be skipped this week to make way for the extensive coverage of Wimbledon and the general election. It's a busy week for everyone at the BBC, and they are doing their best to keep viewers entertained and informed.

During her time on The One Show, Celia Imrie shared her skepticism about the original Bridget Jones film ever getting made. The actress, who played Una Alconbury in the film and its sequels, revealed that she was initially embarrassed to be part of a read-through for a movie about someone trying to quit smoking and find love while writing in a diary. But as we all know, the film was a huge success and became a beloved classic.

The One Show will be back on BBC One and iPlayer on July 8th, so mark your calendars!
