RBS standing order good friday

Just need some advice for someone I help
Standing orders due good Friday 
Paid that day to. I assume pay will go on the Thursday. 
I know the Standing order won't go out until the tuesday but when will it show it as debiting on thier account.  Simply so they don't spend it....

    If will show as debiting on the Tuesday. They could in theory spend the money over the bank holiday weekend. The bank won't prevent this because although they know a Standing Order is due on Tuesday, they don't know what other credits will arrive to cover any expenditure.

    On my bank account it doesn’t show the standing order leaving the account until the actual day.

    Same here (for RBS).   Sometimes an app alert says "Tomorrow" on a Friday for example, but it should really say "Next banking day".
