Shouldn’t it be Her Majesty?
Oh right whoever made that caption thought the Queen's title was Her Royal Highness

Looks like Mary and Tom are tag teaming on ITV
Tom started at 9am was replaced at some point by Mary, and now Tom is back again. I’d expect Mary to be back again for the main teatime coverage

Im possibly getting ahead of myself here, but as we know the Queens coronation was the first televised royal event. I wonder if they will want to have the Kings Coronation in 4K/UHD to continue progression.

Have Channel 4 dropped breaks? Just caught Chateau DIY going to a break, followed by a sting, then straight back into the programme.

I am currently trying to gather recordings from as many radio stations as I can. I hope to upload LBC, LBC News and & Newstalk ZB (New Zealand) today. I am also planning to upload coverage from a wide variety of stations to Mixcloud in the coming days and weeks.
Here is coverage from Times Radio:

It’s always interesting how they deploy everyone on occasions like this. Kirsty Walk is reporting now from Balmoral
Earlier this morning Laura Kunessberg was a studio correspondent with Clive. They wouldn’t caption a job title as technically she’s doesn’t really have one ‘Former Political Editor’ maybe.

They had the same with Sarah Smith. North America editor wasn't applicable but equally I guess they don't like Former Scotland Editor as a title.

I have not been able to catch up with much of the news coverage as I am abroad but the BBC's handling of the announcement was done very meticulously.
They have been preparing for this for a very long time, as evidenced from the dress code for Cat 1 deaths and interrupting regular programming to let each channel come together (aside from BBC Three/Four for obvious reasons).

I heard Nina during Tom's break around 3 hours ago. Are you sure we've seen/heard Mary today yet?

Laura Kuenssberg is regarded as a presenter, a senior one at that and therefore requires no title.
