Austen?

From BBC commentator Justin Webb. There's so many errors in this tweet it's difficult to know where to start. Not bad when the maximum characters allowed is only 140.

Talking of the BBC, oops:

BBC television presenter Ray Gosling is to be charged with wasting police time after claiming on air that he smothered his terminally ill lover.

The Crown Prosecution Service said Mr Gosling, 71, of Nottingham, should be charged over claims he made to BBC Breakfast's Bill Turnbull in February.

The summons alleges that he "caused wasteful employment of the police by knowingly making to Bill Turnbull a false report tending to show that an offence had been committed. Contrary to sec 5 (2) of the Criminal Law Act 1967".
hattip for the tweet: Biased BBC
