Sky News Tonight is a weeknight news programme broadcast on Sky News from 7:00 pm. First aired on 1 September 2014, it was Sky's flagship newscast, featuring special reports, in-depth analysis and interviews.[1] The show's last episode was broadcast on 1 September 2023, 9 years to the day since the show began [2]
History and Broadcasts
From 21 April 2016, Sky News ended the show at 8 pm on Thursday to make room for the debate show The Pledge, which was axed in 2020, meaning Sky News Tonight regained this full slot.
From 26 September 2016, as part of a new schedule change, Dermot Murnaghan has presented Sky News Tonight from Monday to Thursday, with Sophy Ridge presenting on Fridays.[3] Murnaghan left Sky News in February 2023.[4]
The programme was formerly presented by Adam Boulton and Sarah Hewson. Various presenters have acted as relief when the main presenters are unavailable.
