Jeremy Corbyn is up first as election campaigning gets back underway this Friday 26 May
Andrew Neil will grill Labour's Jeremy Corbyn this Friday 26 May on BBC1 as the party leader interviews get back underway following the Manchester terror attack.
Conservative Prime Minister Theresa May was the first to take part in the Andrew Neil interviews on Monday evening.
However, election campaigning was postponed following the Manchester concert attack on Monday night, and the scheduled interviews with the other party leaders were dropped from the schedules.
