When the Duke of Ed died, the BBC hijacked Radio stations 1 to 5 and simultaneously broadcast the identical hours-long eulogy on each of the stations. That was very much OTT and this Taunton-based 'gammon' wrote in to the broadcasting organisation (that I actually have a lot of respect for). It's fair enough that some people want to consume that stuff but there are millions who are ambivalent, old fruit
Philip is dead?
I must have kept flicking channels
I don't think Absolute radio have a news department.
I would have caught up watching the The Crown.
Netflix somehow manage to make the royal family interesting.
