The King's Coronation at Westminster Abbey is less than 24 hours away, with millions of people expected to crowd the streets in London to mark the occasion. The main times for tomorrow include the parade starting at 10.20 a.m., the service from 11am, and the return procession from 1.30 p.m. The Big Lunch and the Coronation Concert will also be held on Sunday as part of the bank holiday weekend, as will Big Help Out Volunteer Day on Monday. Here is a look at everything you should expect for the next two days, from what's going on day by day over the weekend to how the celebrations will unfold.

Millions have already confirmed their plans for the Coronation weekend, but the country is also split on its nicknames, ranging from Chazzle Dazzle and Corrie Nash to the Corro and Chazza's Corro. Platty Jubes" became synonymous with the Queen's Platinum Jubilee last June, but social media is awash with options for the most important day of Charles' life on Saturday. The Cozza, Crowny Chas, Chazza's Corro, Corro's Corro, Corrie Norrie, Corry Nay-Nay, and the Corry Natty are among the many other worthy candidates. The debate over the best slang word has erupted on the internet, but no single deciding favourite is able to stick. One Briton tweeted: 'Where's our universally agreed upon silly little slang for the coronation?!This used to be a proper country!!'

JAN MOIR: Everything seemed to be slow motion, but many viewers must have wished it would go on for ever. The eyeballs boiled at a time when monarchy and empire were competing for attention amid the simple sadness of a family's sad goodbye to a much-loved matriarch. However, silence must also be broken if silence is golden. The microphones clicked backwards as the hearse crept into place. 'The ancient architecture of Westminster Abbey is visible from the road,' Huw Edwards (BBC1) said, in case anyone was curious about the huge, grey building lurking center stage.'

4.1 billion people - more than half of the world's population - are expected to tune in globally. Huw Edwards will lead the BBC's coverage from 8am to 5 p.m. with Fergal Keane in London, while Kirsty Young and David Dimbleby will be in Windsor as part of a team of 30 people providing commentary on BBC television and radio. At 9.30 a.m., ITV's coverage will begin, with Tom Bradby and Julie Etchingham hosting. Mary Nightingale, the Westminster Abbey news anchor, will lead the coverage. Following an early morning broadcast by Kay Burley, Anna Botting and Dermot Murnaghan will host from 9 a.m. on Sky News.

On Monday, ITV has confirmed that there will be no advertisements on its channels, putting it in direct competition with the advert-free national broadcaster. Queen Elizabeth II will be hosted by Bradby, 55, and Julie Etchingham, 53, 54, while Edwards and Fergal Keane, both 61, will appear on the BBC from 9.30 a.m. On its main channel, five digital channels, and ITV Hub, ITV's coverage, from 6 a.m. to midnight, will be broadcast. Both broadcasters will air the funeral service at Westminster Abbey, the parade to Wellington Arch, the Queen's last journey and committal at Windsor. Kirsty Young, 53, and David Dimbleby, 83, will help with the BBC's coverage, which begins at 8 a.m. from Windsor. Mary Nightingale, 59, will cover the abbey, alongside royal editor Chris Ship in London and Windsor.

As the announcement of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's (inset) death broke, a total of 33 million people tuned in on Sunday on major broadcasters. During the hours of midday and 2 a.m., millions of viewers tuned in to BBC and other top news channels, as broadcasters switched to streaming in the news. When host Huw Edwards (pictured) announced that the Queen had "peacefully" died at her Balmoral home on Thursday, viewership on BBC One surpassed 9.83 million at 6.30 p.m. on Thursday.

In the aftermath of the Queen's death (right), BBC One has started to postponed its regular programming schedule. On Friday, the BBC News Special is supplementing regular TV slots in between BBC News at One and BBC News at Six, and BBC News Special is the flagship of rolling news coverage. BBC One interrupted Bargain Hunt at 12.39 p.m. on Thursday to deliver the Buckingham Palace statement, which said royal doctors were concerned about the Queen's health. Following the Queen's death, ITV made some scheduling changes. The extended ITV News special programme, which will be hosted by Mary Nightingale and Tom Bradby throughout the day, will air on the network (left).

JAN MOIR: It was the BBC that caught the moment on tape. The atmosphere on screen was as solemn as a Bible at 6 p.m. There were no fancy Big Ben bongs, no music, and none of the usual titles to announce the evening news show. And despite the Queen's death yet to be announced, Auntie was slipping into full fig funeral mode. Huw Edwards, the newsreader, was already tense, while Witchell, the stickler for detail and protocol, was still in his blue tie. Edwards was speaking very slowly, but with just the right amount of gravelly Welsh gravitas at the time, it was impossible. And then, in the most straightforward and perfectly judged situation after he relayed the sad news, the National Anthem was performed as a unified portrait of the young Queen dominated the screen.
