Royal Coverage | Harry, Meghan and Oprah

On Franceinfo this morning, the credit for footage was to Harpo Productions/CBS without any mention of it being on MyTF1.

I dunno, just because I think of them as the 'anti-establishment' channel. E.g. Alternative Christmas Message and C4 News' tendency to relegate royal news to in brief items that other bulletins would treat as bigger news items. I just wouldn't have even contemplated something like this being on C4.

I don't think it would have looked entirely out of place sandwiched between Changing Rooms and Bake Off. Not sure when you last watched Channel 4 but they've had their share of Royal Family documentaries.

I know, I've watched some of them! Just hard to shift that image of Channel 4 in my head.

I love memes.

I get it but it's been a hell of a long time since Channel 4 was that kind of truly anti establishment channel. They have excellent shows but it's largely mainstream nowadays.

I mean, the one that was on Saturday already used footage from it. "Harry & Meghan vs The Monarchy"

Final US ratings have come in for the interview

Ratings for CBS This Morning. The first time they beat NBC Today and ABC GMA in the ratings following the H&M interview. The programme featured additional exclusive clips from the interview

.@CBSThisMorning was the # 1 morning news broadcast on Monday beating both “Today” and “GMA” for the first time on record. 
Congratulations team!

The whole thing has been a far bigger success than I would’ve imagined.

Pretty impressive ratings, I would say.

And, in a complainy day, the Daily Mail has written to Viacom over "indefensible" use of "contained images which had been doctored or presented as headlines when they were not" to suggest racist coverage.
