• A story listed several people who may be eligible for redress under the terms of News International's fund to compensate people who have evidence their phones were illegally hacked by the News of the World. Among them was Mary-Ellen Field, described by our article as a former PA to the model Elle Macpherson. In fact, Mary-Ellen Field was head of intellectual property at Chiltern plc, a tax and business consultancy. In that capacity she advised Elle Macpherson on licensing and intellectual property rights (Brooks faces questioning by police over hacking, 12 April, page 1).
• A column poked fun at John Bercow, current Speaker of the House of Commons, for having at the age of 23 written a piece for a student magazine headed The John Bercow Guide to Understanding Women. In fact, he was the object of the magazine's lampoon (Pass notes No 2,957, 12 April, page 3, G2).
• A column said there had been a ruling by the media regulator Ofcom that Prince William and Kate Middleton must – in the column's words – "marry without corporate distraction" in the form of adverts on commercial TV channels. For the avoidance of misunderstanding: Ofcom notes that the restriction is part of a standing code, not a new ruling, and applies during the wedding ceremony itself. Beyond that, it is up to TV stations whether to have ads during their coverage (TV matters, 7 April, page 27, G2).
