- The BBC has brought a late change to its schedule after the Pope’s death
- The snooker was removed from BBC Two and switched to the red button
- The fans were perplexed by the BBC decision to remove the air from the air
The fans were left in smoking after the coverage of the world snooker championship was removed from the BBC in late advice on Monday morning.
The BBC was forced to a late change in his schedule following the announcement that Pope Francis had died at the age of 88.
A special BBC News covering his death was put on BBC One, and the broadcaster had the decision to make what would be shown on BBC Two.
The third day at The Crucible in Sheffield was to be broadcast from 10 a.m., but this was replaced by the Britain of Scam, which was originally planned for BBC One.
The snooker was moved to the BBC red button – a call that did not go well with viewers.
“Why is the snooker not on the BBC?” A puzzled fan asked.
Pope Francis was confirmed dead at the age of 88 Monday morning
Coving the snooker was moved to the red button, with Great Britain to tear off the replacement on BBC Two, while there was a short story of the BBC Special covering the death of the Pope on BBC One
Fans were pergnied to explain why the BBC did not show the snooker on BBC Two as usual
A spectator passed at 10 a.m. to be disappointed that the snooker is not on BBC Two
An X user was amazed that the BBC had “shafted” the snooker to show the scam in Britain
‘Hey #bbc – Where’s the snooker ??? Let’s go 10am! Another fan raged.
An X user was disconcerted to explain why the snooker had been “broken” following the death of the Pope.
“Imagine if the BBC had a dedicated news channel to show major development stories,” they wrote sarcastically. “Why is the snooker broken, # BBC1 to move # BBC2 and #BBCNews duplicated on BBC1?”
An X user marked the BBC’s decision to remove the snooker from the air as “disconcerting”.
They wrote: “The special pop is on BBC1. Ok so the snooker is on the red button. But why? When BBC2 is now full of C *** filling. It is confusing of the decisions that the BBC takes at times like this.
The snooker should be back on BBC two from 1 p.m. to show the afternoon session, with the former finalist Ding Junhui in action.
The evening session should then be on BBC four from 7 p.m. and featured the quadruple champion John Higgins.
