n December 2012, nurse Jacintha Saldanha at London’s King Edward VII’s Hospital answered a prank call from Australian radio DJs pretending to be Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles. Believing the call was genuine, she transferred it to a ward nurse caring for Kate Middleton, then pregnant with Prince George. The call was broadcast worldwide, sparking outrage. Just three days later, Jacintha tragically took her own life. This episode explores the events leading up to her death, the fallout for the radio hosts and hospital, and the lasting questions about accountability, workplace pressure, and media ethics.
