I wonder if it could have been reporters finding out from members of the royal family directly.
Could well have been that there were effectively two processes at this point; a formal one beginning at 4:30pm, and an informal one that effectively started around the first "medical supervision" statement four hours before that.
If the control room at NBH didn't know when the formal confirmation would arrive until it literally did, one presumes others didn't either. But if those beeps at 3pm are the RATS, surely that spills out all over NBH including to the control room?
