\u2026Kate goes and gets pregnant! (That\u2019s the Duchess of Cambridge – Prince William\u2019s wife – to my non-UK visitors).<\/p>\n
Now we\u2019re going to have to endure 9 months of BBC boot-licking on this subject, which kicked off well this morning with the entire breakfast show dedicated to interviewing people who just said \u201cit\u2019s wonderful news\u201d. And reporters standing pointlessly in the cold outside the bloody hospital. And on the radio, the same nauseous gush from women who \u201care pregnant just like Kate\u201d.<\/p>\n
A warning to the BBC and Daily Mail: if you overdo it you will start turning the public off the Royals. Even the most loyal of Daily Mail readers is only going to put up with blanket coverage for so long, and that\u2019s saying something.<\/p>\n
I wonder if there\u2019ll be a \u201csouvenir pull-out\u201d in any of the weekend papers? Jeez. Then there will be all those commemorative plates and coins in the back pages.<\/p>\n
I think I\u2019ll emigrate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
