BBC's One Show taken off TV in big schedule shake-up
The One Show has been taken off air in as part of the summer schedule shake-up.
As of June 30, the long-running show will be off air until the end of July.
Revealing the news, host Alex Jones said: "We are taking a bit of a break for the next four weeks and we'll be back on Monday, 28th July, but there's plenty to enjoy like Wimbledon and the Euros."
Alex, along with co-host Roman Kemp, will take some time off for summer.
The One Show was also recently pulled for the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Chelsea Flower Show.
With the show off air, sports fans can look forward to coverage of the 2025 Wimbledon championships taking its place.
The BBC's coverage of Wimbledon will last from Monday, June 30 to Sunday, July 13.
The One Show will return to BBC One on Monday, July 28.
BBC EastEnders schedule change taking place
The One Show is not the only schedule change to be taking place this summer, with EastEnders also changing.
Due to the coverage of Wimbledon, there won't be any room for EastEnders to air in the usual 7.30pm slot.
Recommended reading:
Instead, viewers will need to head over to BBC Two to watch the BBC soap.
This week, commencing June 30, EastEnders will only air on Monday and Tuesday.
However, it broadcast two episodes in a row on Monday, meaning it remains a week's worth of episodes across the two days.

British underdog uses journaling as he tries to write own Wimbledon fairytale
It is likely to be the biggest day of Oliver Tarvet 's life so far, as the lowest-ranked player in the entire Wimbledon singles draw prepares to face defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in his second-round match. Yet while many would quake at the thought of taking on the Spaniard in front of a television audience of millions, the 21-year-old will be finding focus in an unlikely activity: journaling. The British underdog even takes his notepad onto court with him. Tarvet, the world No 733, will take on world No 2 on Wednesday, but the day before the match he told journalists he was 'quietly confident I can win against anyone, Alcaraz isn't an exception to that'. He added that his pre-match routine involved waking up 'pretty early', eating soon after and listening to music to 'get into the right headspace', before 'journaling', which involves writing down thoughts, feelings and experience on paper, often as an aid to self-reflection, mental well-being and focus. 'A big thing for me, I like to journal,' he said. 'It's just a thing that I enjoy doing, you know, you can maybe see on the court.' He revealed his journal's pages 'focus on what makes me good and gives me success'. Some who practice journaling fill their notebooks with 'affirmations' – positive statements about themselves and the writer's life in an effort to reinforce their own positive beliefs. When asked by The Telegraph if he wrote affirmations in his notepad, Tarvet said: 'Yeah, it's just little triggers that keep me in the right headspace and keep me focussed, and that's given me a lot of success, but not even just matches, before and after practice. 'If there's a feeling that I like, or a thought that I like – I'll write it down so I have it on paper and that's given me a lot of comfort. 'And you know, especially when you're playing in big crowds it's important to not let the moment get too big or lose your focus and it just keeps me grounded.' The St Albans-born player cut through Leandro Riedi on an outer court match in three-straight sets on Monday, despite the Swiss player being ranked significantly higher – at 503. His surprise victory prompted questions about how much the little-known player would be able to take back in winnings. As per National Collegiate Athletic Association regulations, the University of San Diego college student is eligible to claim only $10,000 (£7,300) 'profit' a year from his winnings after expenses. The prize for reaching the second round of the championships is £99,000. It is likely that Alcaraz's team will have spent much of Tuesday frantically looking for videos of the British player to analyse. Yet, as this is his maiden Grand Slam and footage of his college matches may be hard to find, this is likely to be no easy feat. In a press conference on Monday, Alcaraz, 22, suggested he had not heard of Tarvet before the tournament, telling journalists: 'Well, first of all, I just heard his name when he qualified to the main draw.' However, while some fans may see Wednesday's match as a foregone conclusion, the Spaniard appeared to be wary of underestimating his British opponent. 'I saw… great tennis on grass, to be honest,' he said. 'I have to be ready.' Tarvet is not the first young athlete to praise the benefits of journaling, with gymnast Simone Biles and sprinter Zharnel Hughes among others who have spoken publicly about it. On Tuesday afternoon, Tarvet was seen being directed to Court 18 – a practice court in the Wimbledon grounds – after appearing to ask for directions. Wearing his University of San Diego shorts, the player was later seen carrying a pair of black headphones – no doubt to help him find the best headspace in the final 24 hours ahead of the match.

Allies of BBC chief Tim Davie fear latest controversy may damage his leadership
Allies of Tim Davie fear a mounting list of problems could affect his leadership of the BBC for weeks to come, as Labour continues to press the corporation over its livestreaming of Bob Vylan's Glastonbury performance. Lisa Nandy, the culture secretary, is understood to have presented BBC executives with a list of questions about the handling of the event at a meeting on Tuesday. It comes after Pascal Robinson-Foster, one of the punk-rap duo, led chants of 'Death, death to the IDF', referring to the Israel Defense Forces, on Saturday. Ministers want to know how the BBC deems an event suitable for a live stream, as well as who has the final say on cutting a feed. Similar questions were also submitted to the broadcaster by the Commons culture select committee. Davie has come under increased pressure since it emerged he was at the festival on Saturday evening and was informed about the events that unfolded on stage. He decided the performance should not feature in any further BBC coverage, but it remained on the iPlayer service for several hours. It is understood that there were technical obstacles to removing the content from the platform once it had been broadcast, with no instant way of removing it. However, those sympathetic to Davie now fear a series of other problems could further destabilise the corporation. Nandy has already turned her fire on the BBC director general, stating that one editorial error was 'something that must be gripped. When you have several, it becomes a problem of leadership'. On Wednesday, Channel 4 will broadcast a documentary about the plight of medics in Gaza that was dropped by the BBC, which said showing the film 'risked creating a perception of partiality'. The film has significant support among BBC staff. Meanwhile, a report on the making of another Gaza documentary is expected within weeks. The BBC pulled the programme How to Survive a Warzone in February after it emerged its 13-year-old narrator was the son of a Hamas official. It is also awaiting the outcome of an inquiry into allegations of inappropriate behaviour by the MasterChef presenter Gregg Wallace. While the investigation has been ordered by Banijay UK, MasterChef's production company, it could have implications for the BBC. Wallace's lawyers have said it is entirely false that he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature. Sources said the BBC board would also be alarmed at the events at Glastonbury and the backlash since. 'The danger is not the optics of this single issue, but the three or four things coming down the road,' said a source. 'It's just whether these things get seen through a leadership prism.' The viewing numbers of the Bob Vylan performance on the live stream were understood to have been low, with the West Holts stage they appeared on experiencing the lowest demand of all five live streams – though the corporation has not given an exact figure. Nevertheless, clips of the performance were soon widely shared on social media. There has been significant fallout for the band. Avon and Somerset police are investigating their performance, as well as that of Irish rap group Kneecap, who appeared directly after Bob Vylan and led chants of 'Free Palestine'. Kneecap's set was not livestreamed. Bob Vylan have had their US visas withdrawn ahead of a planned tour. The band said they had been 'targeted for speaking up' over Gaza, adding: 'Silence is not an option.' 'Today, a good many people would have you believe a punk band is the number one threat to world peace,' they said in a statement online. 'We are not for the death of Jews, Arabs or any other race or group of people. '[We] are not the story. We are a distraction from the story. And whatever sanctions we receive will be a distraction. The government doesn't want us to ask why they remain silent in the face of this atrocity? To ask why they aren't doing more to stop the killing? To feed the starving?' Sir Ephraim Mirvis, the UK's chief rabbi, said the event was a 'national shame'. He wrote on X: 'The airing of vile Jew-hatred at Glastonbury and the BBC's belated and mishandled response, brings confidence in our national broadcaster's ability to treat antisemitism seriously to a new low. 'It should trouble all decent people that now, one need only couch their outright incitement to violence and hatred as edgy political commentary, for ordinary people to not only fail to see it for what it is, but also to cheer it, chant it and celebrate it. Toxic Jew-hatred is a threat to our entire society.'

Balamory star emotional as she rejoins CBeebies show after reboot
Balamory, which starred the likes of Julie Wilson Nimmo as Miss Hoolie, is set to return after the BBC announced last year that it had commissioned two new series for CBeebies A cast member from the original Balamory has announced that they will be part of the pre-school show's return on CBeebies. It comes after the BBC announced plans for a "reboot" of the show, which is said to be getting a "revamp". It was announced last year that Balamory would be revived more than 20 years since it last aired. The broadcaster said at the time that the reboot is expected to launch in 2026 with the first of two new series that it had commissioned. The BAFTA -winning show, which launched on the BBC children's channel in 2002, focused on the fictional island community off the coast of Scotland. It ran for four series before coming to an end two decades ago in 2005. It included Julie Wilson Nimmo, now 53, who played Miss Hoolie, among its cast. Miss Hoolie, who acted as the narrator of each episode, was introduced as a nursery teacher and remained the lead character throughout. Julie has now confirmed that she will be back for the new series of Balamory. She shared the news in response to a fan who asked about the prospect in the comments section of a post about the actor doing yoga on Sunday. The fan asked in the comments section on Instagram over the weekend: "Are you going to be in Balamory reboot?" Julie, who liked the comment, addressed the prospect in a reply. She simply responded to the fan: "Yup." It was previously suggested by the BBC that the new series will feature characters from the original show, as well as introducing a host of new residents of Balamory. No casting details were included in the initial announcement, though. Balamory had been filmed in the village of Tobermory. It was announced last year that the new series will either be filmed in the same location or elsewhere in Scotland, with the prospect of Rothesay mentioned at the time. Julie returned to Tobermory at the end of her BBC Scotland show Jules and Greg's Wild Swim, in which she toured wild swimming locations with her husband Greg Hemphill. She teased then that she felt emotional being back. Whilst arriving into the village, she told her husband on the docuseries, which aired last year: "This is magical." She added: "I actually feel really emotional." Julie, who later took photos with fans, then said: "I'm pure welling up." Speaking about the reboot, Julie said: "It's the craziest and best news ever that Balamory is coming back. I seriously think this is bigger than the Oasis reunion. Everyone I know loves the show and has been missing it." When the BBC first announced the revival last year, it said that the new series will be set in the fictional Balamory, with stories "centred around a nursery school and their teacher." It added that it's interested in "some" of the original characters being included alongside "a host of new faces". Kate Morton, Head of Commissioning 0-6 for BBC Children's and Education, said at the time: "A whole new generation will discover and enjoy Balamory as we bring families together with this new update for CBeebies. It will be a real treat for parents who grew up with the show to now introduce their little ones to the brightly coloured world getting to know a host of old and new characters together."
