Four female presenters have lost a bid to take legal action against the BBC on grounds of equal pay, a judge ruled.
However, their separate claims including sex and age discrimination will go to a full employment tribunal.
A three-week hearing for Martine Croxall, Annita McVeigh, Karin Giannone and Kasia Madera's claims against the broadcaster will be held in March 2025.
The BBC has rejected their complaints and successfully argued the women had no grounds to bring an equal pay claim.
A BBC spokesperson said: "We are pleased with the result and that the tribunal has accepted our position. We will not be commenting further at this stage."
