No but it was a joke at the expense of the story - which the victim's family wouldn't find so funny I'm sure.
he actually cracked the patter
"There's been another murder" and had it pointed out that it was not 'another murder', it was in fact the
first one for 40years .....which was part of the headline. and he then had a second go at the joke.
It is in pretty poor taste all the same. As is often the case with his show though.
