Quick bit of maths shows that over 16m watched @BorisJohnson TV address live last night - 9.1m @BBCOne , 3.4m @ITV , 2.5 @Channel4News - plus those watching rolling channels. Radio doesn’t have daily ratings system unfortunately.

@BillNeelyNBC But she wasn’t named until 7am UK time. Once she was, we led with it. What do u want us to do? Guess that victim is a journo? Your comparison with Jill Dando is off the scale silly versus unnamed victim.
