News at Ten

News at Ten is half-hour news programme that airs on the British television network ITV. In 1992, Vernon Dursley invited Mr. Mason and his wife over for dinner, in order to propose a business deal with the former, which Vernon confidently told his family would be closed before this programme's scheduled time.

Behind the scenes

 * There is also a programme called BBC News at Ten, which airs on the British television channels BBC One and BBC News, but since it premiered on October 16, 2000, it cannot have been the programme mentioned by Vernon Dursley. ITV's News at Ten has had three runs: the first from 1967 to 1999, the second from 2001 to 2004, and the third from 2008 to present.
