What happened? I have found out.
How very sad. But the pranksters could not have envisaged such an outcome in a million years.......
I feel for them too....and for poor Kate an William. What an unnecessary burden.
Not to mention the poor nurses relatives and friends.......Last edited by Newton; 07-12-2012, 06:31 PM.

I can't see the point in portioning any blame. The hospital will have had strict policies in place regarding celebrity patients. I would assume that a media representative would have been appointed. The nurse has obviously mistakenly breeched the process, maybe been disciplined, maybe taken a lot of stick from colleagues....who knows. It's the kids I feel sorry for.Last edited by Bigmallly; 07-12-2012, 09:22 PM.sigpic“Gorillas are very intelligent, but they don't have to be as delicate as chimps -- they can just smash open the termite nest,”

I don't know if this particular hospital has a switchboard but if it does, how the heck did it get past them?sigpic“Gorillas are very intelligent, but they don't have to be as delicate as chimps -- they can just smash open the termite nest,”

This is from the BBC report:-
.....a duty nurse ......, answered the telephone because it was 05:30 GMT and there was no receptionist on duty."
I agree with you BM, there must have been a switchboard and, given the importance of the patient, some protocol on taking calls. Failings all round perhaps?

I still think it comes down to morals at the end of the day, or lack of them in this case. If they hadn't called then the hospital wouldn't have had to deflect their time and attention away from sick people and genuine relative concern to take these two idiots on. The buck stops with them. Two children will forever have Christmas ruined, let alone the other family members. It was never a funny thing to do in the first instance. It was a cheap shot at the monarchy, whatever you think of them.Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better...Albert Einstein
