This will rate worse for Ten than their normal Saturday lineup. A complete waste of time and money.

Nine’s latest promo edit makes mention of BBC

It appears that, across the Tasman, the BBC feed is covered by the ABC and the three commercial networks (Seven, Nine and 10) while the Sky News UK feed is covered by Sky News Australia.

Back in NZ, both TVNZ 1 and BBC UKTV (on Sky channel 7) carry the BBC feed and Three carries the ITV feed as ITV is Three/Newshub’s affiliate.

Another Seven promo - with time

Interesting indeed!

Probably with ITV Coverage

Channels 4 and 5 have not got their News Service, having to Rely on ITN for their Stories.

This promo feels off, it should be under the news branding IMO given it’s a special presentation and the voiceover and opening invitation graphic seems gimmicky for the occasion.

They’re promoting it nonetheless, so that’s a start.

The Guardian Australia’s Amanda Meade writes in her weekly column today that Australian Monarchist League national chairman Philip Benwell says the panel is “blatantly stacked” with republicans, and has called on ABC managing director David Anderson to intervene.

Meade writes in the same column that The Australian will publish a 16-page special this Sunday to cover the Coronation. It will be the first time in 50 years that the paper will come out on Sunday.

I’m gobsmacked. 10Peach finally has new content! Cracks open the champagne bottles. lol.

It’s good that the coverage continues, when the News is on. It’s certainly suited to 10Peach rather than 10Bold and 10Shake.

I wonder if Seven Melbourne and/or Nine Sydney will leave the AFL and NRL early respectively, if they are one sided/blow outs early, switching to the Coronation coverage? I doubt the contracts prohibit 100%, certainly the AFL as we’ve seen during Olympics/Comm Games and other royal events, this is the risk they’re running tomorrow night, vital markets and audience and shares would therefore bleed.

I think neither has budged as they’re looking at each other “they’re doing it, let’s do it too then”. I’m still really surprised, Seven have sort of back-tracked by moving 7-7:30pm (first bounce also now pushed back by the AFL) to 7mate and airing the initial royal coverage, seems a little silly and should just stick with it, we’ve still seen high AFL audiences on 7mate in Melbourne previously, such as the Anzac Eve game when MKR was prioritised and the former would still do 200-300k and even beat the main channel.

Nine definitely capitalising in Melbourne, where GTV-9 has been under the pump the past year or so, with royal specials throughout tonight (Friday) on the main channel.
