The ITV Weekend News is the news programme, which is broadcast twice on Saturdays and twice on Sundays on ITV1.

The Weekend News doesn't have set times. The evening programme airs any time between 4.30pm and 5.30pm on Saturday, and at 6.40pm on Sunday. The late bulletin goes on air any time between 10.30pm and 11.30pm, both nights.

The programme has a few different anchors, including Geraint Vincent, Steve Scott, Romilly Weeks, Lucy Owen and Nina Hossain (currently on maternity leave).

Andrea Catherwood was the main weekend anchor, until she left to join ITV1's The Sunday Edition.

The Sunday evening edition of the programme regularly gains over 4 million viewers, and is the most watched ITV News bulletin of the week. [1]
