One person tweeted: "ITV's coverage of the #PlatinumJubilee is pretty disappointing. I don't know whether it is live or not but if it is, the way the programme has been edited makes it feels not so live but more like short highlights. Too many ad breaks too," while another added: "#PlatinumJubilee the Queen looks elegant and fabulous for her age. Congratulations your Majesty. Trying to enjoy this programme but too many adverts and bad editing as missing most of the great entertainment!!"

A third viewer agreed, commenting: "#QueensJubilee What on earth is this all about? It's been on an hour and the only live thing we have seen was about ten mins and then ad breaks. Back and a history lesson!! Disappointed to say the least."
