The BBC will turn Brexitcast-replacement Newscast into a daily podcast from this spring, and continue to broadcast it on TV once a week.

Newscast aired its first episode on 6 February, having transformed from Brexitcast after the UK officially left the EU at the end of January. It currently broadcasts on a weekly basis.

The show was originally created as Electioncast to cover last December’s general election that returned Boris Johnson to Number 10, during which time it was broadcast on a daily basis.
