I reckon it was this morning/lunchtime and theyre scrambling to get the family up there before publicly announcing it.
Theres no way theyd have released the statements, made newsreaders wear black tie and cancel ads if she may pull through.

You dont really want everyone associating your brand with the death of a beloved royal if you run ads in funeral programme/tv coverage

Radio 4 announcing and playing the National Anthem.
Feels âoddâ.
Historical?
End of an era. Charles as King now.
Just like 911 where you remember what you were doing, I was sitting in bed surrounded by my kids screaming their fucking heads off at each other
God bless you maâam

Iâm not a royalist in any way, I couldnât care any less about the rest of them - but I actually feel a bit sad that sheâs died. Itâs actually surprised me. Maybe itâs the loss of such a constant in life.
RIP

Yep, very odd as today I completed setting up a throwback space at Goodwood Revival that is WW2 themed and had a lots of pictures of the Queen and Churchill.
We completed it as the first alerts came on the phones and now it looks as if thatâs actually when she passed.
Going to be odd taking it all down. RIP
Dunno. Theyâre ads for NHS trusts and the Welsh Government so as itâs public money everything just has to go off for a bit.
My Mrs was talking to me, explaining the process around when a Queen or king dies, when it popped up on her phone.
