Television in the United Kingdom[edit]

Note: Television schedules changed multiple times over the course of the listed days, and the schedule alterations listed are those that were final and do not include each iteration of a changed schedule, other than those deemed notable enough to be included.

Thursday, September 8 (the day of Queen Elizabeth II's death)[edit]

BBC One first broke into programming at 12:39pm, during Bargain Hunt, to report on the concerns about the Queen's health.[1] This coverage ran into the evening, with daytime BBC One programming moving to BBC Two, when at 6:32pm host Huw Edwards announced the Queen's death.[citation needed] BBC Two - which was broadcasting athletics at the time[2] - joined a simulcast with BBC One and the BBC News Channel as Edwards repeated the news;[3] BBC One coverage ran through the night, replacing The One Show, EastEnders, The Repair Shop (which had earlier replaced a scheduled episode of Celebrity MasterChef[4]), Ambulance, as well as late-night BBC One first-runs of BBC Three shows.[5] BBC Three and BBC Four's programmes were suspended entirely, with the channel's output replaced with a slide directing viewers to BBC One for "breaking news coverage".[6]

ITV's news coverage began at 5pm, and also ran through to 11pm; following this, The Queen Obituary was aired until 12:05am, after which a documentary entitled End of an Era: Elizabeth II was repeated successively until 6am,[7] notably replacing scheduled editions of Emmerdale and current-affairs programme Tonight.[5] Channel 4, the other major network not airing news at the time, interrupted Hollyoaks with the news,[8] and replaced their evening line-up with news coverage and successive documentaries about the Queen,[9] as did Channel 5 and Sky Showcase.[10] UKTV channels suspended adverts, instead repeatedly broadcasting a UKTV ident with instrumental music during what would have been advertisement breaks in programmes.[citation needed]

Friday, September 9 — Sunday, September 11[edit]

On Friday September 9, BBC One suspended all programmes and ran news coverage throughout the day.[11] Daytime programmes (minus Doctors,[12] which was initially slated to be broadcast[13]) and EastEnders (the episode pulled the previous evening) moved to BBC Two, which also had other minor schedule changes, such as an extended edition of Newsnight.[12][14] Notably, BBC1 satirical panel show Have I Got News for You was cancelled,[15][16] before filming.[17] ITV also suspended programmes for news coverage throughout the day,[18][19] and in the evening, ran a special programme, Queen Elizabeth II: The Longest Reign from 8:25pm to 10pm, chaired by Jonathan Dimbleby,[20] replacing the scheduled episode of Coronation Street[21] (as well as Emmerdale).[20] Channel 4's late-night satirical discussion show The Last Leg was cancelled,[22] and the channel ran a slightly altered schedule, without advertisements.[23][20][24] At 6pm, on BBC1, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, and Sky channels, the first public message from His Majesty the King was broadcast.[citation needed] Channel 5 broadcast longer-than-usual news programmes prior to primetime.[25] (reference may be out of date)

The episodes of Emmerdale and Coronation Street that were not broadcast on their originally-scheduled airdates were briefly available to view on ITV Hub, but made unavailable to view and their pages removed, some time after.[26][27][28][29]

On Saturday September 10, both BBC1 and ITV televised the Proclamation of King Charles from 9:30am.[30] BBC1's primetime schedule was moved, and assimilated into, BBC2's evening schedule, and BBC1 ran multiple documentaries in daytime and primetime, including a special edition of The One Show.[31][32] ITV ran successive documentaries in daytime,[33] with their primetime line-up airing as intended, albeit running with no advertisements and away from billed times as a result,[34][35] but also due to overrunning news coverage.[36]

On Sunday September 11, BBC1 dedicated their daytime schedule mostly to news coverage, as did ITV to a lesser extent.[37] In primetime, BBC1 re-broadcast specials of Countryfile and Antiques Roadshow focusing on the Queen that were originally shown in 2018,[38] replacing new episodes,[39] and ITV replaced Celebrity Lingo with the episode of Emmerdale that was unable to be broadcast on Thursday.[40]

Monday, 12 September — Sunday, 18 September[edit]

On Monday September 12, BBC One's daytime schedule was again moved to BBC Two, in favour of continued news coverage. Both BBC1 and ITV showed the vigil from St. Giles' Cathedral in primetime, necessitating, respectively, the move of EastEnders to BBC Two,[41] and Emmerdale being dropped and the remainder of ITV's line-up being delayed by up to ten minutes, which included the episode of Coronation Street originally set to air the previous Friday. Channel 4 broadcast a special programme helmed by Andrew Neil about the potential state of Britain following the proclamation of a new monarch - which delayed other programmes - and Sky Showcase dedicated its daytime schedule to news coverage, and broadcast special documentaries in primetime.[42] It was announced that day that, to compensate for potential schedule disruption, episodes of EastEnders would be available on iPlayer at 7:30pm on the day of broadcast for the remainder of the week.[43] The broadcast of Last Week Tonight on Sky Atlantic, and streaming on NOW, excised two segments that contained jokes that referenced the Queen's death.[44]

On Tuesday September 13, BBC One devoted its daytime schedule to news coverage, of King Charles III's visit to Northern Ireland, the journey of the Queen's coffin from St. Giles' Cathedral to Edinburgh Airport (and flight to London), and in primetime the procession to the lying-in-state; the showing of the latter meant The One Show and EastEnders were delayed an hour-and-a-half from their usual start times to 8:30pm and 9pm respectively.[45] BBC One's daytime schedule moved to BBC Two, including the BBC News at One, which was broadcast alongside other continued news coverage on BBC One, as did parts of primetime.[46] On ITV, an extended Evening News broadcast until 8:35pm, after which half of the episode of Emmerdale postponed from Friday and a documentary about King Charles III was shown, replacing an intended Vera repeat.[47] Sky Showcase also broadcast the journey of the Queen's coffin to Buckingham Palace from 4pm-8pm.[48]

On Wednesday September 14, BBC One further moved its daytime schedule to BBC Two and broadcast news coverage.[49] ITV and Sky Showcase also replaced the majority of their daytime schedule with news coverage; all was to cover the Queen's lying-in-state.[50] A livestream of the Queen lying-in-state was made available by the BBC on the BBC Parliament channel, iPlayer and the red button from 5pm.[51][52][53] BBC and ITV also livestreamed it through their YouTube channels.[citation needed]

On Thursday September 15, BBC One broadcast its daytime schedule as usual, with live coverage of the Queen's lying-in-state broadcast on BBC2.[54] ITV broadcast displaced episodes of Emmerdale and Coronation Street over its entire primetime schedule from 7:30pm to 10pm,[55] after its National Television Awards, originally due to air on that day, were delayed until October 13.[56] Dave's satirical comedy discussion series Late Night Mash did not record and broadcast an episode as intended; an episode recorded on September 7 did air as planned on September 8.[57][58]

On Friday September 16, BBC One broadcast news coverage in the morning and afternoon covering King Charles III's visit to Wales, which later moved to BBC Two from mid-afternoon. BBC One also broadcast coverage of a vigil at the Queen's lying-in-state in primetime.[59] ITV also broadcast coverage of the tour in the morning;[60] in the evening, overrunning news coverage led to one of two scheduled episodes of Emmerdale being dropped.[61][62] Channel 4's The Last Leg broadcast a curtailed edition in which the panellists paid tribute to the Queen's life, specifically her humour.[63]

On Saturday September 17, BBC1 broadcast a vigil in early evening, and from 7pm repeated the sketch between the Queen and Paddington that was shown as part of the Jubilee coverage earlier in the year, followed by the film Paddington.[64][65] BBC2 broadcast news coverage across the morning and afternoon (except during the period the News at One was being shown on BBC One).[66]

On Sunday September 18, BBC1 broadcast a special Songs of Praise at 1:45pm, and repeat of a Countryfile special at the Queen's Windsor estate at 6pm, which was followed by a news special looking ahead to the following day's state funeral, with a five minute bulletin covering the minute's silence at 8pm-8:05pm, delaying the rest of the primetime line-up by five minutes.[67] BBC2 broadcast news coverage throughout daytime, and also showed the minute's silence.[68] ITV broadcast the episode of Emmerdale postponed from Friday night,[62] as well as a displaced episode of Coronation Street, followed by a ten-minute bulletin for the minute's silence at 7:55pm.[69]

Monday, 19 September (the day of Queen Elizabeth II's state funeral)[edit]

Coverage of the Queen's funeral dominated BBC One and ITV's schedules for the day. On BBC One, it lasted from 8am to 5pm, followed by news, The One Show and a repeat of the film Paddington 2.[70][64]

Channel 4 reshowed a documentary about the Queen's coronation, with a news special for the two-minutes silence across most of its sister channels.[71][72]

ITV's entire schedule in daytime and primetime was dedicated to news coverage, and broadcast the funeral and later news coverage across all of its sister channels.[73] Sky did the same, including its movie and sports channels.[74][75]

Channel 5 broadcast children's movies in the afternoon.[citation needed][76] and dropped their showing of Home and Away.[77]

Tuesday, 20 September onwards[edit]

BBC2 mockumentary series Cunk on Earth was broadcast, delayed from 19 September.[78][79][64]

The Strictly Come Dancing launch show was broadcast on Friday, 23 September at 7pm, followed by the returns of comedy Ghosts and Have I Got News for You (after a fortnight's hiatus), and the launch of comedy Am I Being Unreasonable?, from 8:50pm.[64] Mock the Week returned on BBC Two at 10pm, its premiere delayed from the previous Friday.[80][64]

Radio in the United Kingdom[edit]

BBC radio stations[edit]

On 8 September, when news of the Queen's death was announced, all BBC Radio stations simulcast a single broadcast covering the news.[81] This practice continued through until the "early hours" of 9 September, when BBC Radio 5 "provided coverage for BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 6 Music", and BBC Radio 4 "provided coverage for BBC Radio 2".[82][clarification needed] On 9 September, BBC Radio 1's chart show was cancelled.[83]

Commercial radio stations[edit]

All stations owned by Global simulcast the news broadcast by LBC, namely Heart, Capital, Smooth (and others).[84]
