Then they cut pretty abruptly from that to the Balmoral gates almost as if they weren't meant to be showing it.
The BBC website has a video of the "announcement"- which begins with the News Report slide from the moment they cut into BBC2, though Huw had actually already announced it on BBC News and BBC1 a good couple of minutes before that, I don't know why they didn't include that bit on their video seeing as it's the actual moment we were told.
