On Tuesday, when a Test Match is being played, Test Match Special may continue until 6.25 p.m., according to whether an optional half-hour of play is called for. If play finishes before this time, the Music Programme will re-open at any time after 5.40 p.m. The normal Music Programme operates on days when it is known at close of play the day before that there will be no play. On days when play finishes early or is abandoned at any time after it has begun, the Music Programme will resume approximately one hour after play has ceased.
