Party on her grave.
And Thatcher's party is booked also.
Sadly I fear Patrick Moore will be the next to go.

My mate told me a nice story about her being on a TV panel in the 1980s set up to comment on video violence.
One member of the audience suggested a plot that (can't remember the exact details, but you get the idea) had a daughter who, in a relationship her dad disapproved of, having him cut off her hands and feet, and behead the boyfriend and parade it around.

The panel responded with of course that's disgusting and awful and exactly the sort of unnecessary violence we mean that doesn't hold any value or anything, and the response was "Yeah? Well that's the plot of Henry V (or whatever) by Shakespeare" hahahahaha

If I was banning works of fiction that inspired violence
