I think we’ve all forgotten how good Tracy actually is when she’s not behind a desk presenting questionable stories. Quality operator.

A minor thing, I know, but I notice that 7 have “GMT” listed next to the London time at the top, which is actually incorrect, as London is on Daylight Saving now, so it should be “BST”.

No one would notice or care, but worth mentioning anyway

9News seem to have their facts wrong, saying things like something like the Queen’s final journey hasn’t happened since Diana’s funeral. I see Philip never existed to them.

Nice graphics on Nine’s coverage tonight.

Philip didn’t have a huge processional through central London, he was driven down the driveway at Windsor Castle.

ABC News Channel taking BBC coverage (via BBC World News) tonight. I really don’t know why they haven’t done this for the previous nights instead of sticking to their normal schedule.

Coverage on Seven and Nine look to be delayed again into Perth tonight.

Correction: Coverage is live in Perth on 9Gem, will switch over to Nine in around an hour.

7 Perth live coverage stats at 8.40
The final journey from Buckingham palace starts at 9.22 pm Perth time.

7 not much better - apparently the Queen Mother died before Diana, and Diana’s funeral was the last time there was a grand funeral through London with processional that William and Harry walked in.

I’m intrigued to see networks going to these lengths with extended coverage not really resonating with viewers.

Michael Usher constantly stopping the commentators to listen to the ‘clip clop’ of the horses is also a bit :eyes:
