Took me a second to twig the Brucie Bonus but I laughed out loud at it. :-)Yep all media outlets do and they update them periodically - particularly if there is a notable even or change in someone's circumstances. I believe the first version of Bruce Forsyth's obit was a cave painting and it got updated through the ages......a carving......tapestry.......paper and finally onto film
And at least 20 mins of "news" about Phil abroad in the BBC news tonight. At least it delays watching us on MotD, but I begin to wonder what real bad news the government might be quietly releasing.The verdict is in: wall-to-wall TV coverage of Prince Philip's death was a turn-off for Brits, with major channels losing primetime (7pm-11pm) viewers compared with Friday, April 2.
BBC1: -6%
ITV: -60%
BBC2: -65%
C4: -8.5%

Greensil and more cabinet ministers involved in pushing for a bung.And at least 20 mins of "news" about Phil abroad in the BBC news tonight. At least it delays watching us on MotD, but I begin to wonder what real bad news the government might be quietly releasing.
Boris has declared a period of mourning until the funeral so that should hide the stories.

Do you watch MOTD after a loss?
Fair play
Just to see the penalties we don't get and the ones the Rags and Liverpool get but their opponents don't.Do you watch MOTD after a loss?
Fair play
Were have you heard that pal? All’s i’ve heard is that 3pm kick offs will be moved to later. They better not cancel our semi
Fully agree. These days it's really hard to get a semi.

He was 99. Over 125,000 people have died in a much sadder way. It's utterly over the top and pathetic. He is no better than any of them, in fact, he wasn't even a nice person. But because has Royal we pretend he was lovely. He wasn't. And everybody knows he wasn't. It's utter hypocrisy that we condemn people for doing what he did his whole life, treating people like shit. Talking down to people, being obnoxious, rude, racist and entitled. His family should grieve him and anybody else who is so inclined, but to try to cast him as some sort of great guy, is a joke. The country and sport should not be disrupted because of him. If anybody wants to watch him buried no worries, but plenty don't and they shouldn't be forced to either. The TV coverage the other night was a disgrace. Where are we, fucking North Korea?Who wants to be playing/following football on such a sad occasion?

No. Northern Britain in the region of Scotland in your case. Get back in your box you uppity colonial ;-)He was 99. Over 125,000 people have died in a much sadder way.
