Yep. Was thinking the same
All bbc radio channels were broadcasting the same thing. I can understand you might announce it on all but then just say if you want to hear more, switch to radio 4 or wherever. Some people may not be interested or just not want to hear about sad news given there's usually plenty of it about.
