What time is Prince Philip memorial service on TV?
Prince Philip’s memorial service will be televised live from Westminster Abbey on Tuesday, March 29 at 10.30am until 12.15pm.

The announcement of the Thanksgiving service was made last year, with a statement from Buckingham Palace which reads: “The Queen has agreed that a Service of Thanksgiving for the life of His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh will take place in the spring of 2022 at Westminster Abbey.”
