LONDON—Responding to popular outrage over the prank call from Australian DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian that may have led to London nurse Jacintha Saldana’s suicide last week, ward nurse Lynn Parker, who also spoke to the pair of radio hosts, told reporters Monday that she thought the prank was actually pretty funny. “I have to admit I had a pretty good laugh over it,” said the nurse, adding that the two DJs “really had [her] going there for a moment.” “The whole thing was very well done; they really nailed those impressions. I went back and listened to a few archived episodes, too, and I’m a pretty big fan of the show now.” Parker went on to tell reporters that the whole incident “really made” her week.
