JULY'S INTERRUPTION COEFFICIENTS - A MENU

July is nearing its soggy end and that means it's time for this month's interruption co-efficients. With over 250 interviews reviewed, this is a comprehensive study of the BBC's main current affairs programmes.

The list of programmes bears repeating:

Today

The World At One

PM

The World Tonight

Newsnight

The Daily Politics

The Andrew Marr Show

The Politics Show

The Politics Show: Scotland

Dragon's Eye

The World This Weekend

Westminster Hour

Unlike last month, I will present them in discreet packages, interviewer by interviewer, over the coming days. This will make them more digestible and (hopefully) more interesting in their own right. (Also it will make it less of a trudge for me!) As a few more interviews remain to be reviewed I shall begin with those programmes that have already broken up for the summer holidays.

Let's see what we find!

Now I know how to copy and paste onto here, I will add the figures in full list form here too. It won't look pretty, but it's important that I put it on in this way too, as it will give you another angle on the matter:
