The BBC will not clear all of its television and radio channels for this weekend’s funeral of Prince Philip, after acknowledging that many viewers felt its wall-to-wall coverage of his death was excessive.

The corporation will show the funeral live on BBC One on Saturday afternoon, with the Huw Edwards-presented coverage repeated on BBC Two later that evening. Radio 4, 5Live, and BBC local radio will also provide coverage between 2pm and 4pm. Otherwise the schedules will remain largely as planned, ensuring coverage of the FA Cup semi-final between Chelsea and Manchester City can go ahead.

The BBC received a record 110,000 complaints over the last week following its decision to abandon almost all scheduled programming when the news broke last Friday, with shows such as Masterchef and EastEnders dropped in favour of rolling news coverage and pre-recorded tributes to the Queen’s husband. BBC Two and BBC Four removed all of their planned programming, prompting many viewers to switch off television altogether or turn to streaming services.
