Join Channel 7 as the network continues its historic commemoration of the death of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II and the proclamation of her heir, King Charles III tonight; across the weekend; and leading up to, and including, her funeral next week.
Mourning the loss of Australia’s longest-serving Monarch, 7NEWS will deliver extended bulletins, from 6.00pm Friday in all capital cities; before returning to special rolling coverage from 7.30pm (7.00pm in Adelaide) and right through until Weekend Sunrise, from 5.00am AEST on Saturday, 10 September on Channel 7 and 7plus.
The Queen’s sudden demise at 96 has been felt deeply around the world, with 7NEWS televising reaction from world leaders, her Commonwealth subjects and more intimately, from her Royal family members.
