Overview

• The BBC removed Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home from its Aug. 18 BBC One and iPlayer slot hours before the 9 p.m. broadcast, replacing it with Fake or Fortune?.
• The corporation says the film will still air, with a new transmission date to be announced shortly.
• Shot over three years, the project was reworked from the 2022 series Home to Roost into a one-hour film featuring intimate contributions from Sharon, Kelly and Jack Osbourne.
• Earlier industry reports floated possible final edits or sensitivity over timing, but the BBC attributes the delay to the Osbourne family's wishes.
• Expectation produced the documentary (executive producers Ben Wicks and Colin Barr), and Banijay Rights is handling international distribution.
