The Media Mourns a Monarch
The Queen's funeral was the culmination of days of coverage across the British media, but did it get the tone right? Amid the pageantry, was there room for journalism?
The Queen's funeral was the culmination of days of coverage across the British media. The new culture secretary called the BBC’s efforts 'phenomenal' and 'spot-on'.

With guests Marcus Ryder, head of External Consultancies at the Sir Lenny Henry Centre For Media Diversity, Tina Stowell, chair of the House of Lords Communications and Digital Committee, Ed Vaizey, former culture secretary and member of the House of Lords, Emily Bell, director at the Tow Center for Digital Journalism, and Stefanie Bolzen, UK correspondent for Die Welt.
