The funeral of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and husband of Queen Elizabeth, is set for Saturday April 17. The services, which will be broadcast on cable, broadcast and streaming platforms, will commence at 9:45 a.m. ET.
The event will begin with a processional at Windsor Castle followed by a ceremony at St. George’s Chapel. In accordance with Covid-19 restrictions and the late royal’s wishes, who died last week at the age of 99, the service will be a small affair.

NBC and CBS will also start coverage at 9:30 a.m. ET, with anchors Savannah Guthrie and Gayle King hosting, respectively.
