The Network celebrated her life tonight by airing a one-hour special documentary Queen Elizabeth II: The Legacy, The Life at 8 pm ET. The special show was anchored by George Stephanopoulos. Later, the network aired a two-hour special documentary of its 20/20 news magazine Queen Elizabeth II: A Royal Life at 9 pm ET. Previously, Press Your Luck and Generation Gap were supposed to air at 8 and 9 ET respectively. CBS, FOX and NBC did not alter any show airings because of the Queen's death unlike ABC. Queen Elizabeth II is the longest serving monarch in Britain’s history, ruling for 70 years and 214 days. The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral on Thursday afternoon, according to the Royal Family account. Her successor, King Charles III, is ready to sit on the throne.
