Has London Bridge fallen ? (3 Viewers)

[Tommo1993]

Loaded up a night of War Robots.

I'll be fine!

I’ve somehow found myself down a rabbit hole of clips from that old ‘Airline’ programme. I love algorithms.

Is that Witchell again? I’ve just got home and turned on the TV. He’s talking absolutely inane bollocks

Royal watcher/correspondent has to be the most utterly pointless profession and you need to be an absolute vacuous waste of space with no self respect to do it, (obviously he ticks all the boxes).

Id do it if it paid as much as the bloke who we keep seeing in Moscow every night - I’d choose those royals

They were just picking out the emotions of Prince Andrew in a car for ages. As the newscasters cycle through the same things, I'm feeling increasingly sorry for the sign language lady, as she is just pretty much having to repeat the same things over and over again. You can't describe things in sign language in as many different ways as the English language, so it really is just a repetition exercise.

What's sign language for nonce?

What are people hoping to see stood outside Buckingham palace?

What's that referring to?

Football wise, there's been no official comms from the EFL (as she's not passed away) but I've spoken to a few of the clubs we work with today, including Cov.

The general feeling is that the only games that would get postponed would be on the 10th day after her death which would be her burial date. If that 10th day falls on a Sunday, the Monday will count as the 10th day.

Are you too young to remember the Diana death and all that went with it? It’s going to go on for days. The only relief now is that you have streaming channels. Everything will be sombre for days

 

[Grendel]

What's that referring to?

The fact that as a correspondent- the royal one is a pretty good job. It would always be my choice

 

[oscillatewildly]

Somebody is working on a best bits video to fill the gaps as we speak.

Some junior editor at the beeb gonna get sacked after trawling through archive footage of the headline act from Liveaid is broadcast.

The football on the Sunday definitely got cancelled, though I'm sure it wasn't as packed a schedule as we have nowadays

Also the mountains of flowers, the peoples princess and the whole media tone was just forced grief

 

[Langers70]

Lost my Dad on Monday..and now this.Its a strange feeling,the end of an era.

 

[Flying Fokker]

Lots off notes being passed around the commons currently. Between parties.

Has the queen died ?

Annoying. I suppose it’s better than Bargain Hunt.

Only the one PL game that day anyway, Liverpool vs Newcastle

Sorry for your loss. I lost my grandfather last week. He was a fair age but still a shock.

 

[Flying Fokker]

If she dies on a weekend when do we get our days off in mourning?

I thought that. Diana was a weekend death. Can’t remember what happened then?

 

[Langers70]

Sorry to hear that mate

 

[Flying Fokker]

Love how people think Meghan and Harry shouldn't be allowed in but if it's a nonce then crack on.

Andrew, Harry and Megain. What a bunch of mongrels.

 

[Ian1779]

Andrew, Harry and Megain. What a bunch of mongrels.

Not sure you can conflate Harry and Meghan with Andrew without sounding ridiculous

 

[Mcbean]

Andrew, Harry and Megain. What a bunch of mongrels.

Meghan not with Harry apparently- makes sense for a change

Sorry to here that, pal.

As was the clamour to throw money at Captain Tom. I hated the the Diana hysteria although she one of the better Royals.

Witchell is now commenting on the look on the Wessexes somber looks. No wonder he is not liked by many.

 

[Liquid Gold]

I'm really looking forward for the next week or so of people competing to be the saddest

While posting jokes about it in what's app group chats but publicly competing for saddest.

He has been for over an hour.

Not to see something as such, presumably it’s to get into a good position to be caught on camera weeping, when the inevitable is finally announced.

The sentimentalists are already out in force, it seems. BBC is just literally filling airtime for the sake of it at the minute…unless they’re building up to the bombshell.

 

[rondog1973]

Yes and remember, non mourners will be burnt at the stake!

 

[Corrado]

Dies about 4:45 apparently

 

[oscillatewildly]

Just announced her death on CH5.

 

[Nick]

Said it on BBC about 57 times just in case.

 

[Sbarcher]

No, the now fairly establishment Johnny Rotten is doing an acoustic remake of God Save the Queen

Changing the words to King.
