Yes if Her Majesty died at 8.15 am it will be announced that day not at 8am the following morning. I suspect 10pm is the cut off time at night.

I suspect the cut off time at night is whatever time the deadline for the first edition of the Times is.

"Pictures from Twitter" really winds me up. It's the equivalent of attributing a letter to Royal Mail or a phone call to British Telecom. They should really be crediting the photographer.

Isn't it the case that the likes of Twitter and YouTube legally own the content posted?

I once worked with a news editor who wanted to show a clip of X Factor he'd got from Youtube and caption it 'Courtesy YouTube'

Something happened at Borough Market as Northern Line skipping both. Despite being a Londoner I really dont know the area very well so couldnt tell where any pics would be.

Borough High Street (there's no Borough Market station) ends at London Bridge station so it's unsurprising. I doubt it's a seperate incident, just keeping people away from the area

BBC understands Police are searching for at least three armed suspects. (BBC Radio 5 Live)
