If that was the headline, why did you bother to read it?
Report Wesdag • May 26, 2015 4:45 PM BST
Obviously to find out if there was anything else to it.

Is that okay with you?

No1 on the Beeb's most read list, so others clearly find it newsworthy. I knew nothing about it until I opened this thread.

Perhaps they were just as curious as me MD.

There's been a lot of coverage about it for some reason.

Tbf, no2 was 'Buzzcocks cancelled' so maybe it's a slow news day. Should have been sent to Dignitas the day Simon Amstell left!

Maybe because he shouldn't actually have to go to Switzerland to die.
