RE: HM Queen Elizabeth Dies & Funeral Coverage - James2001 - 20-09-2022

ITV stayed with the journey, doing interviews either out of vision or multi screen
I'm not sure it's that much of a critisism really, that part wasn't really that interesting, and it was on the red button for people who really did want to watch it,
RE: HM Queen Elizabeth Dies & Funeral Coverage - XIII - 21-09-2022
I'm surprised anyone wanted to watch that bit, I left to go make lunch as a slow car journey is not interesting to watch. It was the same when they were showing Liz Truss' journey from Northolt to Downing Street.

I watched the same journey the other week when King Charles landed there, but mainly so I could go 'oh look there's Hoover Building Tescos' etc

I used it as an excuse to watch that day's Drama Channel EastEnders that I'd recorded.
And, almost certainly related, Drama actually skipped an episode that day (even though it was scheduled)- which was an extended episode which featured Steve Owen's mum's death. Presumably they considered it inappropriate because she had pictures of the queen all over her wall, or maybe because they decided they didn't want to show an episode with a death. Seems to be silly reasons to skip it, though they did at least put it on UKTV Play.

For me that's one of the most interesting bits. The Queen's arrival from Scotland across London was the most interesting watch of the fortnight for me. I must be sad.

All these parts are very interesting and part of history too.
The number of people stood waiting on those routes is testament to the love we all felt for our late departed Queen

I also watched coverage on ITV throughout. I liked how they just left the coverage of the journey to Windsor on with very little commentary.
ITV News have excelled with their coverage of the death of HM.

Maybe they just decided it’s super weird. Is it her death episode where she gives Steve a rather passionate kiss?

I agree.
We watched ITV throughout the two weeks as we watch ITV anyway.
They were excellent and very tactful with full empathy. Last week in the Tuesday there was a lady In the studio who was very emotional. I believe her husband had passed away with Covid and Nina asked if she was ok.
On Monday as you say they kept quiet and very good respect.
