Editing BBC Three (section)

===News and sport===
In its original incarnation, BBC Three featured ''[[60 Seconds]]'', an hourly summary of news, sport and entertainment headlines. They were presented in a relaxed style in keeping with the rest of the channel. As part of the BBC's discussions with the government regarding the founding of the channel, a longer news programme had been promised to provide a daily section of news and current affairs. ''The News Show'', as it came to be called upon launch, was a ''[[Newsbeat]]''-style fifteen-minute bulletin, later rebranded and reformatted as the more satirical and frivolous half hour ''[[The 7 O'Clock News]]''. However, the BBC discontinued the bulletin in December 2005, following a recommendation made in the 2004 Barwise Report, which found that the channel's target audience sought news from elsewhere.<ref>{{cite news |date=21 October 2005 |title=BBC Three drops nightly news show |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/4365628.stm |work=BBC News |access-date=16 November 2013 |archive-date=11 February 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220211021635/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/4365628.stm |url-status=live }}</ref> Upon the 2022 relaunch of BBC Three, a new summary of news, sport and entertainment was launched under the name ''[[The Catch Up (BBC)|The Catch Up]]''.

In 2022, The channel along with BBC Four was suspended, following the death of her majesty Queen Elizabeth II. This was done, so that the bandwidth could be used on BBC One and Two for the tribute progammes.
