[edit]France 3 Sud produces daily news programmes for its two sub-regions - programming for the Midi-Pyrénées sub-region is produced in Toulouse, with the Languedoc-Roussillon sub-region receiving programming from Montpellier. Each sub-region produces a 27-minute bulletin (midi-pile) at 1200 CET during Ici 12/13 and the main news at 1900 during Ici 19/20. Six 10-minute local bulletins serving the Toulouse, Pays Catalan, Montpellier, Quercy-Rouergue, Tarn and Pays Gardois areas are broadcast during Ici 19/20 at 1900 CET.
On 5 January 2009, a 5-minute late night bulletin was introduced, forming part of Soir 3.
On some weekends and holiday periods, as well as during major events, the Midi-Pyrénées and Languedoc-Roussillon news bulletins are combined into pan-regional "Sud" editions.
