Considering the saturation coverage this story has had the past few days, there should be a section called Having It Rammed Down My Throat. Whatever happened to not becoming the story? The media eating itself. Again.
How closely have Britons followed the BBC resignations story?

I've stayed out of the whole (latest) BBC debacle, simply b/c I don't care abt it. But I've just been sent a petition "Save Our BBC". No! I haven't watched or listened to it in years. They once sent me horrible threatening letters mistakenly accusing me of not paying the Licence Fee. Savile etc.

Fergie has always been completely deluded & tone deaf. It must surely be a form of narcissism. She has previously got by relying on public sympathy, but that has run out. This will just get added to the massive pile of failed crackpot projects she's accumulated over the years.
Sarah Ferguson is said to want to return as a female empowerment figure, despite drowning in backlash.

Been reading a Reddit thread abt the scariest TV adverts of all time. Crikey, dark nostalgia. 1970s Public Information films, AIDS "don't die of ignorance" from the 80s, Metz The Judderman, Trebor's Mr Soft (i used to find that one just baffling). Belly's Gonna Get You was a bit of a random entry.

There's a UK travel vlogger I watch on YouTube who - for reasons which I will never understand - seems to admire Donald. He gets dewy-eyed standing outside Trump Tower. He's currently travelling round the US, & I don't dislike the guy, but i have to say I hope he's currently stranded somewhere ...
