Ozzy Osbourne in 2012

The BBC has issued a fresh statement amid confusion over a documentary on Ozzy Osbourne which was suddenly pulled from this week’s schedule.

On Monday night, a one-off documentary about the late Black Sabbath frontman had been due to go out on BBC One.

Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home originally began life as a reality docuseries about Ozzy and his famous family returning to live in the UK.

When the rock musician’s health began to deteriorate, however, it was instead decided that the project would take the form of a one-off film following his final weeks, most notably his performance at his Back To The Beginning concert in his hometown of Birmingham last month.

The BBC announced on Monday, hours before transmission, it was removed from the schedule and replaced with a repeat of Fake Or Fortune.

Hey @BBC , what’s happened to Ozzy’s programme meant to be broadcast tonight? Why has it been........
