Broadcasters had only limited advance warning that confirmation of her death would be announced at 6.30pm
News of the Queen’s death was announced by Huw Edwards at 6.30pm on BBC One, breaking into programming on the BBC’s other channels. The broadcaster then played the national anthem, in line with a well-rehearsed plan that has been practised regularly in recent years.
Although a statement had been expected in the early evening, broadcasters had only limited advance warning that the confirmation of her death would be announced at 6.30pm.
