No disrespect to King Charles III, but the BBC are once again appear to be giving wall to wall coverage, king has cancer, will step back from duties, the royal family will step up to do their job. There are other things going on in the worlad that are far more significant, such as the War in Ukraine, War in Gaza and the increasing crisis in Yemen and other parts of the middle east.
Thankfully there are some parts of the media and here of course, where in the true british spirit, we just carry on regardless of what the main stream is talking about.
Good point, I suppose it is helpful as they can bring the usual suspects out of the broom cupboard to comment
@zleap They got Nick Witchell (spelling?) In Hong Kong to comment. Filmed on his phone too by the looks of things.
Yeah, thing is if the worse did happen, the royal mint and post office have only just released new coins and stamps, they will need to start over,
@zleap It is ridiculous. OK, so he has cancer.
SO tell us when you know more.
Yup, they won't tell us more they don't need to.
@zleap
"The royal family has not released details because they want some privacy"
UK news anchors: "Right, standing outside Buckingham Palace for some reason is Keith. What wild speculation have you got for me, Keith?"
@zleap I might also have mentioned this yesterday. One single page of statement and we get extra time on the news to listen to everyone working for the BBC to tell us the same bloody thing over and over and over. Pointless, given how little we actually know!
