I agree, that is utterly appalling. I remember shouting at the television about it during the River Jubilee coverage. John Inverdale said recently that they're trained never to explain or apologise if they make a boo-boo on air, because it only draws more attention to it, but surely she had some producer yelling in her ear about it, and she could have found a chance to say it again correctly.
It doesn't matter what position anyone takes on Royalty, at the end of the day it's a simple matter of professionalism to name people correctly. I sincerely believe this kind of laziness/stupidity should be a sacking offence, at least from doing live commentary.
