BT Sport's coverage of Celtic's UEFA Champions League clash against Shakhtar Donetsk was punctuated by a shot of the Bhoys' away support unveiling a banner which read "f*** the Crown".
The Green Brigade's unveiling of the banner prompted BT commentator Rob MacLean to apologise "to anyone offended" following the death of Queen Elizabeth last week.
Both Celtic and Shakhtar's players wore black armbands in memory of the late monarch, who had reigned for 70 years.

Earlier today, it was announced that there would be no minute's silence prior to kick off in the Polish Army Stadium - a ground Shakhtar are using as a temporary home as the war between Ukraine and Russia continues on home soil.
Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou spoke prior to the Group F clash and indicated that he was not an authority on how the club's supporters ought to act.
He said: “I will abide by whatever regulations there are. I’m not the keeper of people’s obligations.
"We live in a society where people can express their own values in any way they want. I will be doing it my way and my club will do it our way, and everyone else can do what they like.”
After putting in a gutsy performance but ultimately losing 3-0 against Real Madrid at Parkhead in their first group stage encounter, Celtic began tonight's game in encouraging fashion.
Reo Hatate's effort from a tight angle deflected off Artem Bondarenko and rolled into the back of the net to give Celtic the lead after just 10 minutes.
However, Shakhtar struck back just before the half hour mark through Mykhailo Mudryk.
With just under 10 minutes left to play, Celtic will be keen to find a winner to boost their hopes of progression out of Group F.
