When is The Andrew Marr Show on TV? BBC1 political show moves to new Sunday time slot
BBC1's flagship political programme is moving from its usual slot as part of a "broader revamp" of the BBC's Sunday schedules
The Andrew Marr Show is moving to a new time slot when it returns following the summer break this Sunday 2nd September 2018.
The BBC has announced that as part of a "broader revamp" of its Sunday BBC1 schedules, the political programme will now air an hour later than usual going forward.
The move means that Andrew Marr will now begin his show at 10am on Sundays. A number of rival political programmes have also decided to change their time slots this Autumn, including Sophy Ridge on Sky News and Robert Peston on ITV.

“The Andrew Marr Show is moving to 10am on Sunday mornings," a statement on The Andrew Marr Show's Twitter feed read. "This is part of a broader revamp of Sunday programming on BBC One. We will follow Match of the Day. Join us on Sunday at 10am.”
