BBC staff trained for Queen’s death

After experienced newsreader Peter Sissons’s gaffe in 2002:

UK: BBC staff are being received Royal funeral training to report the death of Queen Elizabeth, when it comes, to prevent another embarrassing mistake.

BBC Corporation had come under huge criticism following the Queen Mother’s death in 2002 after the Corp’s experienced newsreader Peter Sissons went in air to pronounce her death in clothing, a grey suit and burgundy tie, unsuitable for funeral.

“Like all news organisations, the BBC has plans in place. We provide training to ensure staff understand what would be expected,” a BBC source said.

BBC heads hoped that the special training would prevent any more gaffes like Sissons’s 2002 false move.

The Corp has then changed its rule and urged the reporters to put on dark colored suits, with the male presenters in white shirts and black ties.

Later, the Corp. faced more criticisms from the royal family, after Prince Charles caught slating Nicholas Witchell, BBC’s royal reporter, in a press interview at the Klosters’ ski resort of in 2005.

He angered the Prince after he asked about Princes William and Harry’s feeling over his plan to marry Duchess of Cornwall, Camilla Parker Bowles.

The Corp. also announced that it would broadcast the national anthem when it shows a picture of the royal.

It would also stop all comedy show during the funeral, which is predicted to continue for 12 days after her death. Press TV
