The ITV Weekend News is the name for weekend news bulletins on the British television network ITV. It is produced by ITN.
Weekend News bulletins air twice on Saturdays and twice on Sundays. Unusually, the programme does not have set times; the evening programme airs at any time between 4pm and 7pm, and the late edition airs any time between 10pm and 12am.
The Sunday evening edition of the programme regularly gained over 4 million viewers in its 6.40pm slot, however the bulletin was moved as part of ITV's weekend line-up revamp in January 2008. It was one of the most-watched ITV News bulletins of the week. [1]
