HRH Prince Philip - Passed Away

Just put Bbc4 on for TOTP to see a message that programmes have been suspended and to please switch to BBC1 for a major news report

The nation is being told it is in mourning, so we must mourn, there can't be any frivolous distraction from our collective mourning, that would be disrespectful.

This is the nation drawing the parlour curtains. The establishment is telling us, all of us, to mourn.
 
Heard on the radio today that the "opinion of Palace insiders " was that he was unsuitable for the Queen and was probably likely to be unfaithful - bit of casual anti-Greek stereotyping there perhaps? Anyway she went ahead and married him.
Then in an interview he said despite all the requirements of his role he always tried to be at home for the kids school holidays.
As you say married a long time, a family man and faithful to the end.
Well Good on him as the kids were at boarding school!
