2) The British people don't need to remember anything at all, they're quite within their rights to complain should they wish. Many have done at the coverage of events such as COVID-19 & Brexit (Of which both have had their fair share of over the top sensationalism) And also will have probably had a more direct impact on people day to day lives than the death of the Duke of Edinburgh.
