Edited title to not use potentially opinionated "outsider" term. Original article title does use it
“Outsider”??? Word choice is so important, and an “outsider” often has negative connotations. Outsiders are other, not like us, different, strange.

Good news? In this day and age?
BBC continues to disappoint me more than the new King.
