Elections 2021: How to follow the results on the BBC

Whether you want to watch, listen, or follow online, the BBC has you covered for all your election needs.

Results for Thursday's elections in England, Scotland and Wales began coming in on Friday morning.

The BBC News website will have all the results as they are announced, with live results, and live pages with the latest reaction and analysis from our correspondents.

The coverage will include:

The BBC's Election 2021 results programme will begin later than usual, as the pandemic will delay vote-counting.

The programme will kick off at 09:00 BST on Friday and run until 22:00 BST on the BBC News Channel and BBC iPlayer. It will also be available on BBC Two in the morning and BBC One from 14:30-18:00.

Huw Edwards and Kirsty Wark will lead the show, co-hosted from London and Edinburgh, bringing the latest results, analysis and in-depth reporting from the BBC's election teams.

They will be joined by political editor Laura Kuenssberg, polling expert Professor Sir John Curtice as well as Reeta Chakrabarti and Lewis Goodall, and correspondents will be on the ground at closely fought council, mayoral and police commissioner contests.

As results are expected to continue coming in over the weekend, the special programme will continue on Saturday from 13:15 to 22:00. It will be broadcast on the BBC News Channel throughout the day, and on BBC One until 18:00.

BBC local radio stations will carry results and analysis throughout the day on Friday and into the weekend, with special programmes across the network. You can find your local station's schedule here.

On BBC Radio 4, the latest results and forecasts will be broadcast on Friday on The World at One at 13.00 and PM at 17.00, presented by Evan Davis.

On Saturday from 07.00, the Today programme will have news and analysis, and Jonny Dymond will present PM later in the day at 17.00.

And, as the inevitable fallout continues into the following week, the Today programme will be co-presented from Glasgow with Scotland editor Sarah Smith on the Monday, from 06.00.

BBC Radio 5 Live will have full coverage of the results across Friday and into the weekend. Reporters will be based at the key counts, political experts will explain the significance of the results and listeners will be sharing their reactions throughout.

In Wales, TV coverage will begin on BBC One Wales from 13:30 on Friday, with a special programme led by Nick Servini and Wales political editor Felicity Evans. S4C's coverage begins at 13:15 and is presented by Bethan Rhys Roberts.
