No TV coverage in the UK - WTF?

Has anyone noticed there has been no noticeable coverage on TV (terrestrial, music channels, etc) or on the radio in the UK. I thought it was a big deal that P was doing such a big event in London after so many years and I was expecting some sort of documentary on, say, the BBC or Channel Four, and a few of his hits (at least the old ones) on the radio. How come VH1 didn't do a one hour special on him? Surely P doesn't have the influence to prevent these broadcasters, and if he did, then why would he?
Odd donchya think? And frustrating!

its not prince... its the tv networks... music isnt selling or making them any money anymore... there is no music on bbc now.. the only thing that could have covered it is t4 and that audience just wouldnt be interested? 8 yr old girls??

anyone remember the bbc documentary in the mid 90's, during the same change era? it would good to see a follow up to that considering how it claimed he had become a recluse and his fame was dwindling

Prince doesn't want to be bothered with that, he just wants to do his shows get his money and come home.
