Royal Wedding live streaming

The live streaming on Youtube worked at first, but as the service got under way it froze, probably due to weight of numbers.

Fortunately The Telegraph was providing live streaming as well and the quality was not bad. Well done to our favourite source of news.

Royal Wedding

Then again ......

Despite Mark Thompsons complaints, he has managed to recruit a new director of television. It warms you heart doesnt it, that George Entwistle is selflessly prepared to engage in public service on the tiny salary of 270K.

Of course if I was George I would be none to pleased at my boss telling everyone that he would have liked to see someone better in the job. Then again I would be a millionaire after just four years and I probably would be able to stick it.

Let them eat cake!

For the ruler of the court of Versailles (by whom we mean Mark Thompson and not Louis XVI) it seems that things are going from bad to worse. These days it seems that flunkeys just will not bother getting out of bed for less than 100K and the Third Estate seems disinclined to provide any more funds. Poor King Mark will soon be reduced to typing his own memos and eating takeaways from the local chippy.

Then again it turns out that expense claims have gone up a remarkable 60% in just three months. Perhaps the flunkeys are just recovering thier foregone bonuses by another means.

Meanwhile the peasants have no bread. About time for a storming of the gates?
