Video: BBC royal baby reporter ‘Plenty more to come from here… none of it news… but that won’t stop us’

By Axegrinder

The BBC's Simon McCoy has possibly given the most honest account of what the world's media are providing from outside St Mary's hospital today: no news.

Thanks to Nigel Fletcher for posting this video taken from the BBC News channel.

McCoy says: "Well, plenty more to come from here of course. None of it news because that will come from Buckingham Palace. But that won't stop us."
