And I have to say I wholeheartedly agree with this comment - and I shouted as much at the TV at the time, when whoever it was came out with it.
Even the BBC's former Royal Correspondent Michael Cole joined the criticism, saying the presenters were under-prepared.
"I think it's outrageous when you hear a person who's been paid to be a commentator refer to Her Majesty The Queen as Her Royal Highness," he said.
"No preparation, no homework. There was no gravitas. I don't remember one memorable phrase or evocative expression." |
It seems one of the main complaints was about Fern Cotton, with a sick bag, with a picture of Her Maj on it, they've got some real stick over that, who the hell decided to run with that stupid piece of television
