Sad news that Baroness Thatcher has died this morning, there is currently rolling news coverage on BBC One (extended News at One) suspect there will be lots of news/programmes relating to this in the coming days, plus a possible televised service at St Pauls?

'Ceremonial Funeral', not 'State Funeral', because she did not want a Lying In State.
I would have guessed the 7/7 bombings, but i was at college that day, so i cant be 100% sure
more will follow at 6:00 and 18:30 as it has been announced
Normal programmes have now been resumed on ITV
Sian Williams and Emily Matlis have both seemed close to tears - I suppose it's possible that as journalists they knew her personally.
i'd better not miss broadchurch tonight because of this
TV company in prioritising current news event over a pre-recorded drama series shocker.
Get over yourself.
I imagine, there will probably be an extended news at ten, rather than a news program at 9, after the news at ten, there was only gonna be a tribute thing to Jeremy Beadle.
Yes I can remember thinking like that myself-with The Banana Splits when I was about 10.
But dont worry-it would take a nuclear war to prevent ITV removing a popular programme.
ITV are running an obit after News at Ten
Obit after News at Ten makes sense, Jeremy Beadle seemed a filler programme anyway, wonder if the BBC will do the same, as theyve virually got filler at 10:35 also
Apparently a special from 8.30 to 10.00.
Channel 5 have 'A Tribute' at 6.30pm. A lot of programmes will have been prepared for transmission well in advance and need little editing before they air.
Jeremy Thompson is better he gives it more Gravtias
Don't see the need to cancel any sporting events on any day for her funeral. The Queen maybe yeah (though I disagree with anything being cancelled, even for the Queen's funeral), but not a former PM.
The surprise of the century. Ronald Reagan's ghost rang in to say he liked her too, Bobby Sands' not so much.
Obviously we have no idea when the Funeral will be becauae it hasnt been announced yet.
But how dear they possibly have a funeral on same day as FA Semi Finals.
