    So that'll be the entire weekend of TV consisting of a carousel of newsreaders taking it in turns to go live to someone standing in a street confirming that Philip is dead and that someone else has announced that they're sad about it.

    These fascinating updates will no doubt be broken up by that simpering twat Nicholas Witchell breathlessly giving us the benefit of his insider knowledge that the Queen is probably feeling a bit sad because she'd been married to him for ages. The newsreader will then nod their head solemnly as if this is some great fucking insight that was worth sending a cab round to Witchell's gaff so that he could share his wisdom with us all. Then it'll be over to Jenny Bond to say the same fucking thing but with a hat on.

    What is the bloody point of clearing the schedules for it? This is the one kind of news story which emphatically DOESN'T require regular updates. Nothing is going to change. The only way this could possibly be a developing story is if his reanimated corpse slips out of the gates of Windsor Castle and embarks on a gruesome rampage around the town. Then, and only then, is it worth cancelling Masterchef and giving us live updates from the scene.
