60 Seconds is a news programme which runs between shows on BBC Three. It broadcasts under the BBC News format and branding. The weekday presenter is Sam Naz, whereas the weekend bulletins are presented by Claudia-Liza Armah. Previous presenters include Tasmin Lucia Khan, Andy May, Matt Cooke, James Dagwell and Alex Stanger.

The programme lasts for 60 seconds as the name suggests, during which time the presenter condenses some of the day's news, sport and entertainment stories into a 60-second bulletin. Throughout the bulletin, a timer in the corner of the screen is featured which counts down the seconds. There are two sets of pictures running simultaneously for each story. Five stories are featured in every bulletin. 60 Seconds is presented in a relaxed, cheeky style in keeping with the channel. Humour is a feature and some of the scripting often raises a smile.

60 Seconds was launched on 16 July 2001 on BBC Choice, the precursor to BBC Three, to appeal to those within the 18–34 age group; BBC Three's target audience, and also the demographic with lowest news-watching and voter turnout. When BBC Choice was replaced by BBC Three on 9 February 2003, the programme was kept and the titles updated to match the style of The 7 O'Clock News also on the channel.
