Not Sky History. Pick and Challenge are showing it though.
Presumably down to having different playout with the A+E channels.

Paramount channels (at least Comedy Central's and MTV), the WBD's Warner channel division (Cartoon Network, Boomerang, Cartoonito, TCM) the Nat Geo channels, all as according to EPG "irregular" times, will run with no adverts.
I'm sure many schedules will be updated later, so that Nickelodeon, Channel 5 etc. will join in

It looks like BBC1 and ITV are back to more or less normal schedules all day tomorrow, given the lack of any ceremonial events.
The only significant change seems to be Breakfast extended until 10 and still no Morning Live.
BBC2 will be taking the News Channel from 10-1 and 1.45-6, though - so basically whenever there isn't news on BBC1 until early evening.

Been thinking about this and I wonder if the main reason for this happening is they don't have the time, manpower and indeed willpower for their compliance team to go through literally every programme on 4/5 channels to double check that nothing accidentally offensive will be broadcast on such a hyper-sensitive day. Particularly if the ratings for the channels will be so low anyway.
I've heard a lot of commissioners are having to rewatch many hours of their shows again to double check for anything that could possibly be misconstrued as offensive or inappropriate related to the royal family.
Better just to air what's on the main channel that risk anything, and better than a blank screen too.
That makes sense, especially as on the day The Queen died, some of the programmes on ITV2 had parts which people may have took offence to (specifically, in an episode of Bob’s Burgers, one of the buildings in the intro was called ‘Don’t Stop Bereaving’; and an episode of Family Guy was all about a main character dying). Although that time it wasn’t really noticed, if it happened again, they could get very bad publicity.
Wouldn't it be better to just close the channels instead? Have them displaying a caption asking viewers to switch over to one of the main channels, in this case it would be telling them to switch to ITV.
Having the funeral on so many channels at once just seems redundant, I imagine most are just going to tune in to one of the main five to watch it.

[*]Ch.85 (TVB Finance, Sports and Info Channel) is showing a documentary in Cantonese/putonghua tonight at 7.30;
[*]Ch.84 (TVB Pearl) is showing The King's Speech, a film on her father George VI, on Wednesday at 9.30. They're also showing a documentary of her in English on Saturday, at 8.30.
[*]No live arrangement on her funeral on Pearl yet, at least according to the online listings.
[*]As for Ch.96 (ViuTV6), the closest is a 20/20 special on Saturday night at 9.30. Like TVB, no live arrangements on her funeral yet.
[*]Nothing on two i-Cable TV FTA channels (ch.76 and 77).
An update on ViuTV6: A documentary named Elizabeth: The Invincible Queen is on the channel saturday night at 9. Probably the True Royalty documentary, just omitting the "at 95" from the title.
Not too sure if the content is really what they wanted from the name though: Looking into the deals that turned "The Queen" into one of world's worthiest brands.
