Contrary to Paul Armstrong's earlier post, we have now learnt that we do not have the rights to highlights of the Wales v Slovakia game on Saturday, which would have run in Match of the Day.

Apologies for the confusion.

We've just been told that Sky, who have the live rights to the two forthcoming Wales home games, have agreed to sub-licence the highlights to us.

That means we'll be able to show an edit of both Wales v Slovakia tomorrow and Wales v Cyprus next Wednesday in our 1035/1040 BBC1 highlights show on the respective evenings.

The Sports Personality of the Year programme is on the move from London for the first time in its distinguished 53-year history - and its new home is Birmingham.

The show has most recently been broadcast from a studio at BBC Television Centre.

For some time now, we've wanted to stage the awards in a much bigger arena to allow greater public access to the show.

I know, in the past, many sports fans have been disappointed they could not be part of this unique experience and the stars themselves have wanted the public there.
