Queen's prank call

[EXC]

An Australian radio station put through a prank call from the 'Queen' to Kate Middleton's hospital to ask how she is and by all accounts the nursing staff fell for it, actually giving details on her condition and treatment.

You could almost forgive the foreign sounding woman who answered the phone but it was the next woman who was clearly English and senior that gave the details of KM that's the worry.

The nurse involved has been found dead, its an alleged suicide, I wonder if the callers find it funny now.

Tragic but who running this hospital allowed a call to go through to a nurse knowing who was in their hospital did they not think to pass all calls concerning kate to be put trough to a manager the blame for this tragic death rests equally with the radio station and the hospital

Sorry - I can't agree with that. If the call had not been made, the nurse would still be alive. Only one place is responsible for that.

Re: Queen's prank call

Bullying is always dressed up as "teasing" or "pranks" and the victim blamed for having no sense of humour, or being a wimp, or "asking for it". Not funny. We need to be kinder to each other. Sometimes suicide is simpler than the alternative.

I think it's terrible and I wish I hadn't posted it now (the video's been removed).

I should have known better as I detest shows like X factor that humiliate people in the name of entertaintment and this was what it was.

The poor woman who died was actually only the one that answered the phone and then passed the call on to a nurse who subsequently discussed KMs condition. She did nothing wrong at all.
