FYI: Remembering The Queen

First News TV - Weekly News Show

This week on FYI, in a special edition of the children’s news programme, we look back at the Queen’s reign and hear from children who actually met her. And we get advice from an expert on how to deal with being upset about the news of the Queen’s death.

Next week on FYI, the award-winning weekly news show from Sky Kids, we have a special programme as we continue to remember the Queen. We will hear from FYI News Club members across the country about their memories of the Queen. Plus, what do we know about King Charles III, and what does a monarch actually do?
