"They are angry BBC and ITV are restricting coverage to just short snippets and won’t interrupt their usual scheduling for live pictures. Sky plans to cover the event live – but only on its news channel.
And there will be no TV cameras inside church. Jade’s family have demanded that her funeral is not turned into a media circus." Jesus wept! ![]() To think I used to respect Sky before they stooped to this banal populism. They're beginning to make Fox News look like BBC4! |

From the Guardian last Saturday:http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandsty...s-politics-aid
Celebrity product ranges: A better class of tat With the arguable exception of incontinence pads, there is no product some celebrity or other wouldn't slap their name on if they thought there might be money in it. Don't believe it? Then it's probably time we talked about the Kiss Kasket. Kiss are not merely a rock band you could never care about, no matter how many more eternities they keep flogging their face-painted, catsuited, age-inappropriate act. They're the most rapaciously merchandising entertainers ever to have existed. Against their awesomely shameless record, even will-this-do product spewer Gwen Stefani is a merchandising pygmy. This lot have licensed their name to more than 3,000 products, from the Kiss toothbrush ("Rock your teeth clean") to Kiss studded condoms (let's not and say we did) to Kiss bathroom tiles (really?) to Kiss Cabernet Sauvignon (OK, just leave now). But in June 2001 it became clear that Kiss were not simply scraping the bottom of the barrel. The barrel had a concealed basement. And so to the Kiss Kasket, the world's first celebrity-branded coffin. Have you ever contemplated falling into death's embrace and thought how much sweeter it would be if a member of the entertainment industry had ripped you off one last time before your surviving relatives began shovelling in the earth? Then let's hear some more about the product that could make that happen. The Kiss Kasket featured the faces of the band's four founder members, as well as its logo and the slogan "Kiss Forever". It retailed at $4,500 unsigned and $5,000 signed. Come on: this may be a difficult time for you, but an autograph's an autograph. It's what the Kasket's kargo would have wanted. As Kiss frontman Gene Simmons declared on its launch : "This is the ultimate Kiss collectible." High praise indeed. "I love living," he added, "but this makes the alternative look pretty damn good." |

I think they're doing the right thing about keeping her exact burial spot a secret.
God only knows what loons are out there ready to dig her up or something. It will also mean Jeff and the boys in future years can visit her grave and not be gawped at by others. Sensible idea!! |

It does not warrant any space on the news at all.
This insanity has gone on and on and on. The latest sob story for Sun is Tragic Jack having to leave early due to his curfew. Oh boo hoo. |

Frankly she has been dead for 2 weeks and it would not surprise me if she has already been "privately" buried and this other stuff is all for TV and show and PR pomp for Sky Sun and Mail etc.Oh- and OK! |

To be honest, I don't blame her family for trying to throw people off the real burial site, as they won't want the real one crowded with fans and what not. I think they realise that Jade wasn't exactly even liked by a lot of people, infact, I'd say she was hated by quite a few, so goodness knows what these unstable, yes, unstable characters will do to her grave. I fully support their diversion tactics to allow their dead loved one to have the respect that any dead person should have.

I think its a very sensible idea to bury her somewhere else.
This way, they get the public funeral that she wanted, while safeguarding her grave from crazed fans, or worse, haters. Think this is a great idea, but Daily Star has really twisted the title, by saying the funeral is a fake. |

Thirteen days does seem a long time before the funeral. In my family we're generally about 5-7 days. I don't know what's normal with other people?They're right to try and keep the location of the plot secret but what are they going to put on the headstone a false name? Because someone, at sometime will stumble across it. By then though the furore should have died down and no one may care anymore, the news might only make page 7 column 3 with no photo! |

I said yesterday that they will have a lot of trouble finding somewhere to bury jade - too many people will want to deface her headstone etc mean I know but that is how she upset and annoyed people. I don't think they can possibly keep it quiet. It's just not possible! Too many people around. Do they honestly think they can quietly bury her and no-one locally will notice?! They should've had her cremated and scattered her ashes somewhere meaningful, they obviously didn't think this through.

I thought I read somewhere that where she is being laid to rest does not allow headstones but simple wooden crosses. |

When you are buried, the council in the area that you have been buried will note that plot in their registry. It is open for any member of public to request information about where a person is buried. So I am not sure how they can hide the burial plot from the public.

![]() Love how ironic and hyporitical her family are being when they've all courted the media and had fame off the back of Jade - Jackiey as she had a v. expensive makeover courtesy of Living TV, and then went on CBB and earned a good su of money! Jack had a good living with Jade, and will continue to cash in on being her husband, not forgetting enjoying the fame from it all!

It's a good idea keeping the real burial site a secret. There are an enormous number of sick, twisted, creepy people who would probably go to her grave and dig the woman out of her own grave.
God only knows what these freaks would do, so it's a good idea keeping it secret. The outrage at lack of news coverage is just absurd tbh. Interrupting schedules for live coverage?!! Which plank thought this was going to happen? |
