The bombshell announcement of King Charles's cancer diagnosis came at a rather fortunate time for ITV News.

In the hours leading up to the Palace's statement, a new IT system they'd installed – designed to join up the company's newsrooms around the UK – failed quite spectacularly, leaving them in chaos and struggling to pull together the usual regional news programmes on Monday evening.
