Why was this the top story on BBC this morning?!

[nickytwotimes]

Prince bloody Harry! Top story!
AM I alone in thinking this is ridiculous!

ye sywan ywan ywan

i agree-what about all the others ?my nephew does same-do you know his name?was he on news.

Still top of the bill on world at one

Flip's sake!

I'd rather have the Prince Harry storyy than all that shite about the non-earthquake.

True, PPC!
Roffled when i read a letter in the Guardian yesterday about seeingn a jiffy back being dislodged and falling to the floor - "I can only thank god noone was standing underneath"!

Headlines that read 'Three Bricks On Pavement Shocker' were starting to really wind me up!

Well, it is big news so it should be top story if there is nothing bigger?! Its not top news because they are saying "top news, Harry is at war and he is the only person that counts" it is big news because a) he has been there since december but there had been a media blackout (i didnt think it was possible for them to keep their mouths shut!!) and b) because it is such a hotly debated subject as to whether he should be there or not (putting others at risk etc).

It's a good story.

As a matter of fact, he himself said that he hoped the reaction of people in Britain would be "so what, my husband/son went there.."

Find something else to get upset about.

I just love all the subterfuge that must have gone on behind it. Makes you wonder what else we don't know about!

Most things PPC.

Ever heard the quote: "It's tragic to think of the number of people who read a broadsheet newspaper from cover to cover every day and believe they know what is going on in the world."

This is minor potatoes.

Minor potatoes, yes I agree. Liking your quote... will try + crow bar that in to conversation tonight somehow!
