PHILIPPOS Andreou of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg – or Prince Philip for short – could so easily have become a drug-addled Eurotrash wastrel. We see it all the time in magazines like Hello! — stupid people with stupid names and stupid titles sitting on their stupid boats ­surrounded by a bunch of stupid girls and some rolled-up bank notes. * Read our live blog for the very latest news on Prince Philip's death ... T’was ever thus. There was some Eurotrash guy in the Sixties who remembered, at two in the morning, during a coke-fuelled poker game in Paris that he was due to play in a tennis tournament in Monaco the next day. So he ran out, leaped into his Ferrari and got 200 yards before he crashed into a tree and died. That’s the world Prince Philip is from.

A s the alumni of this year’s Love Island readjust to the outside world and try to parlay their 15 minutes of fame into provincial panto roles and protein-shake endorsement deals, Jade: The Reality Star Who Changed Britain (Channel 4) was a salutary lesson. Ten years after the death of Jade Goody , this documentary traced her meteoric rise and tragic fall . When the Bermondsey dental nurse with drug addict parents appeared in the 2002 series of Big Brother, she was initially vilified. Snobs dismissed her as “thick”. Tabloids cruelly caricatured her as a “chav” and a “pig”. Gradually, though, Goody won over millions with her wit, warmth and guileless honesty. By the time she was voted out of the Big Brother house, she was a media sweetheart, made a fortune and even considered running for Mayor of London. The mind boggles. Here, archive footage provoked a Noughties nostalgia rush, back to when Big Brother and Pop Idol were in their pomp, before reality TV saturation. The film … [Read more...] about Jade: The Reality Star Who Changed Britain, review: This bloated Noughties nostalgia rush did Goody a disservice
