And finally ...
Alan Titchmarsh was no fan of the BBC's coverage of the diamond jubilee boat pageant, reports the Daily Mirror. "I got very angry when the Queen was wrongly called 'her royal highness' and the presenters were vague on facts," the former Gardeners' World man told the Radio Times. "One said the Queen had outlasted 12 prime ministers and 'at least' six American presidents. We all make mistakes but when somebody hasn't done their homework, that gets me a bit rattled." Titchmarsh also revealed he doesn't watch Gardeners' World, which he hosted for seven years. "I'd be irritated if I thought it wasn't as good as it used to be and a bit stunned if it was better." Are you going to tell him or am I? Daily Mirror P23
