Obviously it's an unfortunate piece of news, hopefully the family won't be harassed by our Media during their grieving either.

RIP

I'm not a royalist but would just like to say RIP Elizabeth. Didn't think she'd last long without Phillip. God bless.

Obviously Football nor any of the other entertainment shouldn't be being pulled, that's just common sense.

People need escapism, not just stuck on one news story, no matter how big that news story is.

We're not meant to be China, so we shouldn't act like China.

I know I'm being blunt about it, but to me the country shouldn't come to a complete stand still when someone dies, we didn't have this for example when Margaret Thatcher died.

And just to clarify, it is sad what's happened to the Queen, and I do feel sorry for her family, I wouldn't be on this thread otherwise.

That's why I'm watching classic EastEnders.
If I keep watching the same thing over and over for 10 days I'll go crazy.

Finally some common sense in 2022.

Basically if you wanna watch Masked Dancer then great, if you want to watch the coverage about the Queen's death then also great.

People should always and I mean always have alternative options to the current news.
