Have just seen the following on the BBC website - the new King of Bhutan has been crowned. He is the youngest king in the world and looks, to me, to be distinctly uncomfortable with the whole process!
Even sillier is the news that an effigy of Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand is to burned in Kent as part of a bonfire night spectacle. It really does seem to have got out of hand now. They are not the first entertainers to be uncomfortably risque, nor will they be the last, I imagine. It makes you wonder how much this entire situation is about the offense caused to a respected actor (who, by the by, is being treated as a doddery old fool by most of the nation's press) and how much it is about the fear of ambition and success. I think it would be a loss if these performers found themselves unable to get work on the basis of this event. Having said that, perhaps the controversy won't do either of them any harm!
