If I remember correctly, the plan is that UK TV channels cancel all entertainment programs for the next ten days, so I look forward to more people going outside for the end of summer.

There's no way that's true. Maybe one of the BBC channels

This is the first time we’ve had the TV on watching something whilst it is actually being broadcast though airwaves for months.

To be glib about it, probably Netflix can tell us in the future how much viewership in the UK went up.

Even so, it's a different era now. When Diana died, the TV and radio were certainly very different for a good week thereafter. Nowadays, even if most TV and radio changes its schedule, there's Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, BBC iPlayer, 'catch up' services and all the rest, so you could very easily not be exposed to the national mood in the same way.
