Jeff Randall Live is a business programme broadcast on Sky News in the United Kingdom at 19:00 from Monday to Thursday. It began on 24 September 2007 as a weekly show,[1] and was hosted by the business journalist Jeff Randall. The show featured interviews with some of the UK's leading business, financial and political figures, with guests including the billionaire tycoon Philip Green, and former Chancellor Alistair Darling.[2]
In January 2009, Jeff Randall joined Sky News on a permanent basis with the programme becoming part of the daily schedule instead of its previous weekly status when it only aired on a Monday.[3]
In September 2010, Jeff Randall Live was extended to a one-hour slot Monday-Thursday,[4] this followed the axing of SkyNews.com,[5] which until then aired in the previous 30-minute slot.[6]
It was announced in July 2013 that the show would end in Summer 2014, after Randall decided not to renew his contract with BSkyB,[7] but it was later announced that Randall would present his last show on Thursday 27 March 2014.
