I mean , he's the queen's husband .

Did you expect a brief " and in other news " and that's it

No not at all and I know it's going to dominate the majority of the airwaves for the rest of the day.
But the least I expected was a stiff upper lip and not to detect a quiver in the voice, old boy.

[Otis]

I don't think anybody has asked you to mourn to be honest

Nope. But the wall to wall coverage is bigging him up more than he deserves.

 

[oscillatewildly]

Meanwhile, on the island of Corfu.....

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Top of the news, biggest story. Not 24 hour wall to wall coverage.

They'll have been preparing for this for years. Decades probably. They're going to use that now they've got the chance.

 

[Ian1779]

Guaranteed there will be a doorstep vigil arranged by Sharon and Karen on Facebook.

Someone will be postponing their daily wank as a mark of respect.

 

[Grendel]

I'm not a fan of the mass grieving we seem to have for everything now. Probably mentioned it before but there seems to be a minutes silence at virtually every game these days. Sure years ago you could go whole seasons without having one.

Had the cricket on today from Edgbaston and they've got the flags at half mast, black armbands and have had a two minute silence. All at a game with no spectators for someone who, as far as I'm aware, has no connection to the club.

Not to say it isn't sad but its become like a competition to see how can be seen to be the most upset about everything and every company & organisation seem fearful of being criticised if they don't mention it.

It’s someone whose been part of the longest serving head of state not Pete from Oldham

Entirely predictable and pathetic

 

[oscillatewildly]

Who did he support?

 

[PVA]

Yes, Operation Forth Bridge it's known as.

Netflix probably wasn't around though when they came up with their cunning plan for wall to wall 24 hr coverage

Netlfix 1 - 0 The Royals

 

[Otis]

Who did he support?

West Bromwich Albion

 

[David O'Day]

Who did he support?

aek

 

[oscillatewildly]

Hearts will be doing it for the Duke tonight.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

People already banding around doing a 1 minute salute for him tonight at 6pm at front doors.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Hearts will be doing it for the Duke tonight.

I heard KASTA is asking if it affects his place in the succession.

 

[PVA]

I wonder how many of these they will get through in the 24 hours rolling coverage?


“Do you still throw spears at each other?”
A question to an Indigenous elder during a Royal visit to Australia in 2002.

“If you stay here much longer, you’ll all be slitty-eyed.”

“It looks as if it was put in by an Indian.”
Commenting on a dodgy fuse box at a factory in Scotland.

“I meant to say cowboys. I just got my cowboys and Indians mixed up.”

“How do you keep the natives off the booze long enough to pass the test?”
Questioning of a Scottish driving instructor.

“You look as if you’re ready for the bed.”
Appraisal of the ceremonial robes the Nigerian secretary-general of the Commonwealth was wearing at a state dinner.

“If it has got four legs and it is not a chair, if it has got two wings and it flies but is not an aeroplane, and if it swims and it is not a submarine, the Cantonese will eat it.”
Advice to a meeting of the World Wildlife Fund in 1986.

“Deaf? If you are near there, no wonder you are deaf.”
In 1999 to deaf people in Wales about a steel band.

“Do you know they have eating-dogs for the anorexic now?”
In 2002 to a blind woman and her guide dog.

“Do you work in a strip club?”
To Navy trainer Elizabeth Rendle.

“If you travel as much as we do you appreciate the improvements in aircraft design of less noise and more comfort – provided you don’t travel in something called economy class, which sounds ghastly.”

“Everybody was saying we must have more leisure. Now they are complaining they are unemployed.”

He was the longest serving head of state ffs. This was obviously said in jest, he should not need to be accountable for this.

 

[wingy]

The cynic in me suspects it will be a day to bury bad news .
No double entendres intended

 

[Ian1779]

Have a day off mate it’s a joke.

You really are a sad little man aren’t you

 

[oscillatewildly]

People already banding around doing a 1 minute salute for him tonight at 6pm at front doors.

Any reckless driving executed today should also be considered in tribute.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Entirely predictable and pathetic

How did you feel about him driving horses around a course against the clock pulling a carriage, whip in hand

 

[PVA]

You really are a sad little man aren’t you

Hahaha

People that Grendel gets upset when you joke about them: Prince Philip & Boris Johnson
People that Grendel is happy to joke about and doesn't care how many die: The general public

Dry your eyes mate

Quite witty?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Taking aside how insincere these 'condolences' obviously are, the comment section is a story unto itself

 

[PVA]

You really are a sad little man aren’t you

Also, I'm not sure you're in a position to call anyone a sad little man when just the other day you bumped a 7 (yes, seven) year old thread because of some internet grudge.

You're in your fifties apparently and you're doing that shit

 

[Saddlebrains]

Shame of course, not nice when anyone dies.

But i was a lot more gutted by the passing of Paul Ritter on Tuesday as im sure others were

 

[wingy]

Tbf I'm coming round to the view that the coverage is a blessing , anything that takes the focus away from this indeterminable desease .

 

[Ian1779]

Some very strange opinions on here about this tbh

Not sure why they are strange to be honest.

It’s sad that a family has lost a husband, father, grandfather.

His legacy should be in his DofE scheme that allowed young people to have all kinds of new experiences and develop skills that they may not have had access to previously.

You can emphasise these points and be more than respectful enough.

 

[Tommo1993]

Rest in peace old Phil. GSTQ.

it's twitter in a nutshell really

Not alot of people have anything nice to say about anybody really .

Doing themselves no favours in the process mind you

The non football elements on here are going the same way tbh
