HRH Prince Philip - Passed Away

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

He is their cousin

Aren't they all cousins?

Charles looks very upset, poor bugger having to do the stiff upper lip fir the cameras.

The whole thing is fucked up. A funeral being on live TV because of "public interest" when a family just wants to grieve. The Diana one was worst forcing her young kids to walk behind the coffin on live TV.

Probably more of a general point but I wish funerals were more of a celebration of somebodies life.

They can be, non religious, but like to think my dads was a celebration, we felt it was anyway. I suppose thats a family funeral though this is anything but a funeral for a family member. I understand why but it must be hard for the family.

Not the royal way , they are broken in private

Ridiculous, nothing wrong in being emotional, even if you're a royal

We might think that but the british stiff upper lip is what they are all about

 

[xgorton]

Nobody does ceremonies like the British very moving and perfectly performed.

Over the top.

[bluemoon32]

Nobody doffs their cap quite like the British
