Mark Austin now presenting on Sky News, having taken over from Sam Washington.

NBC News NOW simulcasting Sky News UK (with clock).

I caught the BBC One interruption. The presenter kept her cool, the pressure on them must be extreme. Sad news.

R.I.P Prince Philip

A conscious decision I believe, due to the pandemic.

Thought they would've known better...

Channel4 interrupted around 27mins past the hour and went live to Channel 4 news.
Looks like they went to a scheduled ad break at 12:31 and joined Channel 4 News with a black C4 blocks slide.

I remember they didn’t do much when Diana died. I switched on C4 after I got up that morning and was oblivious to the news for a few minutes until I put Teletext on.

I think it appeared post-Reith rebrand (and was in the old style).
Yes, just found the video from the time.

I do really like the ITV News graphics onscreen, and I think they have gone for a slightly darker CSO background for behind Lucrezia

This is very sad news. He had 2 months to go before he turned 100. May he rest in peace.

If not fully cleared, heavily changed but I reckon the former of the two.

I certainly reckon that HIGNFY will be dropped.

Channel 4's late to the mourning but they do have a special Channel 4 News programme lined up this afternoon.
No doubt they'll cover this later on tonight at 7

The BBC iPlayer has got a special banner on the homepage, informing people that the BBC has suspended the normal schedule


Prince Philip has Died - UploadTV - 09-04-2021

ITV schedule has just been updated with special news coverage continuing until 6.30pm tonight, no local news and the Evening News taking over at 6.30pm.


Prince Philip has Died - UTVLifer - 09-04-2021

ITV has blanket updated the EPG with coverage through until 18:30

It seems like the Magic stations are sharing music - quite sombre so I suspect this is their way


Prince Philip has Died - what - 09-04-2021

Sky News have some really classy and sombre graphics:
