The broadcaster’s contemporary 4 June live report advertises 19:00 at Emirates Old Trafford cricket ground. This records that advertised programme start, not an observed first note: Wikipedia’s infobox gives 18:55–22:10, an earlier ITV preview advertised 19:15, and the live blog’s first opening update is 19:05. These clocks are not treated as interchangeable. The current indexed original event website contains unrelated commercial insertions, so it is not used as an authoritative clock.
