The presenters included Tasmin Lucia-Khan, Andy May, Matt Cooke, James Dagwell, Claudia-Liza Vanderpuije and Sam Naz.

The programme lasted for 60 seconds as the name suggests, during which time the presenter condensed some of the day's news, sport and entertainment stories into a 60-second bulletin.

During the 2012 Summer Olympics and 2014 Commonwealth Games, bulletins ran from 7:00 am to 12:15 am with a round-up of the day's other news stories.

There was a rebrand of BBC Three on 12 February 2008,[4] during which the identity of 60 Seconds also changed to match the new colour scheme of the channel.

Tina Daheley now co-presents Freespeech, Susannah Streeter is another BBC World News presenter.
