Question Time debate halted as Fiona Bruce makes two large bulletins

The show in Dumfries on Thursday May 21 was paused for presenter Fiona Bruce to share a huge update on the next two BBC shows – before discussions on drilling in the North Sea

Question Time presenter Fiona Bruce halted tonight’s show to make two huge announcements.

The show in Dumfries on Thursday May 21 included panelists; Cabinet secretary for Economy, Tourism and Transport Steven Flynn, Kirsty McNeill Scottish Labour MP, Conservative MP Harriet Cross, Thomas Kerr for Reform UK Scotland and Ross Greer Co-leader for Scottish Greens.

Following a heated discussion about food price caps, she said: “Before we go on, I want to tell you about our programme next week, because… we are going to be in Dulwich in South London for a special programme about artificial intelligence. So many questions we get, probably not every week, so we’ll probably get two or three. But I have to say they just build up over time, and we decided we’re going to tackle this subject.

“Do we understand it? Can we control it? Are we all going to lose our jobs? What it will mean for us, so that’s a special programme on artificial intelligence next week. If you would like to come and be part of that audience, Dulwich in South London, we would love to see you,” she told viewers.

She then teased the upcoming edition of the show on Thursday, June 4, telling viewers: “The week after that, you might have noticed there’s a by-election happening in Makerfield. We’re going to be there,” she revealed.

“So two programmes, don’t want to miss them”, Fiona concluded.

BBC Question Time returns on Thursday May 28 in DUlwich and Thursday June 4 in Makerfield.
