A documentary on Ozzy Osbourne was been pulled from the BBC TV schedule at the last minute with no explanation.

The Black Sabbath frontman, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2019, passed away at the age of 76 on July 22 surrounded by his family. He was buried a week later on July 30.

The show, titled Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home, is billed as a ‘moving and inspirational account of the last chapter’ of the rocker’s life.

The show was scheduled to air on BBC iPlayer and BBC One this evening at 9pm.

It is said to be told through ‘unique and intimate access to the whole Osbourne family’, which included widow Sharon, and children Kelly and Jack.

But the one-off hour-long programme has vanished from the BBC TV listings and has been replaces by Fake Or Fortune.

While the show’s reschedule has not been announced, the BBC told the Mirror that the new premier details will be shared in ‘due course’.

The programme has been filmed over three years and ‘captures the extraordinary rollercoaster of their lives’.

It details Ozzy and Sharon ‘attempting to complete their long-held dream of moving back to the UK’, the BBC said earlier this month when promoting the documentary.

It also sees Ozzy ‘heroically battle to get fit enough to perform’ his final tour alongside Black Sabbath and the family dealing with ‘the dramatic consequences of his ill health’.

Kelly was quoted saying in the film: ‘Iron Man wasn’t really made of iron,’ referencing how the rocker had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2019.

Ozzy was laid to rest on the grounds of his own mansion in Buckinghamshire last month during a private funeral attended by his family and a host of rock royalty.

His widow Sharon, 72, and their children were joined by stars including Marilyn Manson and Ozzy’s lead guitarist Zakk Wylde during the event at the family’s 250-acre estate near Gerrards Cross.

His passing came just weeks after he appeared on stage for his farewell concert at Villa Park stadium in his native Birmingham.

Jack said watching his dad on stage was ‘very emotional. Just to see him up there doing his job was great. We were all tearing up.’

His dad, however, remained nonplussed and replied with his typical blunt wit: ‘Lot of f***ing good that does me. I’m retired now!’

The concert – three weeks before his death – saw him reunite with his original Black Sabbath bandmates for the first time since 2005.

More than 42,000 fans packed into the venue for the Back To The Beginning show, during which he told the crowd in his final speech: ‘You’ve no idea how I feel – thank you from the bottom of my heart.’

Official documents listed three causes of death for the rock legend. This included an out of hospital cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction and coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease with autonomic dysfunction.

In a statement shared last month, Ozzy’s family said he died ‘surrounded by love’, adding: ‘It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning.
