Too right - That she was given,in death,an entire night of air time and many hours since;is beyound belief.

The BBC has two channels in Britain imaginatively called BBC1 and BBC2. On Sunday both were showing exactly the same programming at the same time devoted to the accident in Paris. The worst thing is that they cancelled the Simpsons. I'm sure Diana would have preferred us to be able to watch our favourite programs rather than some morbid program which was full of speculation and factless opinion. And... virtually all British radio stations played panpipe music - all day !

Diana will be remembered as a very special person, I think the way the broadcasters paid their respects was completely inappropriate for someone so vibrant who lived fast and died fast.

How would she like us to deal with her death? - I don't know but as she was the world's most famous party girl - Let's Party !
