Every afternoon during lunch, the BBC's South Today reliably reports on at least one of four topics:
1) the Princess Diana inquest
2) a missing child
3) the obesity epidemic
4) binge-drinking in Britain
And when they hit two, my lunch ends. It's a foolproof way to keep myself from sitting in the tearoom all day and watching game shows.
In a jarring change of pace, they had a special feature on hospice care today with Hugh Grant. Technically, Hugh Grant earnestly talked about death and dignity in the background while the BBC kept replacing him with black and white glamour shots of himself, but the important thing is that it was in no way related to Madeleine McCann. It was a bold move, and I applaud it.
