    "Prince Philip puts his foot in it"

    I suppose it's newsworthy if it was an interesting or out-of-the-ordinary accident, like a fight or something. How did it happen? Kicking foreigners again?

    Personally, I hope he is alright, he is a gas man. I'm sure there is a good bit of enterainment left in him yet. I would like a few more laughs out of him before he pops it.

    Minor injuries, apparently.
    Prince Philip was hurt when the ponies attached to his carriage ran away.

    Fúcking hate it when that happens.

    Not that I ever had much respect for Sky News but when they made a big Princess Diana affair out of Jade Goody's funeral last year I refuse to watch that tripe anymore.

    I think the funniest Sky News thing was when a tiny earthquake knocked a few ancient chimneys in some part of England about two years ago and they ran with it like it was September 11th again or something. The are the News Channel equivelent of the Sun.

    Prefer BBC News, that said at least they have 24 hour news channels and they are good for major breaking events, we have nothing like that here, even if we have something major happening here, you have to wait until 18:00 or 21:00.

    Would it not be cheaper to send a tin of roses?.
