"Glanz & Gloria" becomes "G&G - Faces and Stories
Starting in mid-November, the SRF program «Glanz & Gloria» will be renamed «G&G – Gesichter und Geschichten.» According to SRF, the name change is intended to reflect the «already completed transition to a more substantive social affairs magazine.».
In addition, "G&G" will get more airtime and, at 20 minutes, will now last about twice as long. This will make "G&G - Faces and Stories" the new centerpiece of the early evening, as Schweizer Fernsehen SRF announced on Wednesday.
The "Tagesschau" and the weather program "Meteo" will also be longer. An "interview of the day" will be integrated into the "Tagesschau. And "Meteo" will go into greater detail about regional weather features.
The "expansion of information services in pre-evening programming" will take place at the same time as the commissioning of the new newsroom 19. (SDA)
