Ofcom: Radio Caroline aired pre-recorded King Charles death notices by mistake
TL;DR
An Ofcom report found that Radio Caroline aired pre-recorded death notices for King Charles III during The Barry Marsh Show after a staffer accessed the files out of curiosity, triggering a panic and an on-air apology. The incident led to a program interruption, a later apology from the presenter, and highlighted strict protocols governing royal announcements, with only two complaints logged.
