The new show will be available to watch on Sky News – Freeview 233, the Sky News website and App, as well as YouTube.
With a thoughtful look at the people at the heart of the headlines and featuring powerful interviews, lively debate and spiky discussion, the show will include original journalism and analysis from Sky News’ team of expert correspondents.
Sarah-Jane Mee, Lead UK News Presenter, Sky News said: “The UK Tonight will be an hour of interviews, discussion and debate and will be a showcase for Sky News’ original journalism. We’ll get to the heart of the big issues people are talking about at the dinner table, in the school carpark or down the pub. I can’t wait to get started and give viewers across the country a place to come for all the UK news they need to know… with a little bit of fun, too.”
