Radio Caroline mistakenly introduced the British king’s passing on Tuesday, once they mentioned a pc error triggered their “Death of a Monarch procedure.”
Station Supervisor Peter Moore mentioned in a social media assertion that the announcement — and the next second of silence — was activated accidentally.
The station apologized to the King for mistakenly saying he kicked it, and to listeners for the surprising false alert.
Moore wrote … “Caroline has been pleased to broadcast Her Majesty the Queen’s, and now the King’s, Christmas Message and we hope to do so for many years to come.”
He added the blunder went down Tuesday afternoon … and you may see on their web site that there isn’t any playback obtainable for Tuesday’s broadcast between 1:58 PM and 5 PM.
And as for His Majesty … he and Queen Camilla have been in Belfast for the previous couple of days.
