ITV has updated and confirmed its schedule for Saturday night following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
TV schedules had to change to cover the Queen's passing after it was announced on Thursday. As a result Saturday's schedule also looks different with many shows cancelled.
Among those is this year's National Television Awards which has now been rescheduled. Now, the ceremony will take place on Thursday, October 13 and will be broadcasted live from the OVO Arena Wembley.
The broadcasting company will also release further details for Sunday's schedule as well as the schedule for the following week.
