Correct. As you say people still believe that malicious rumour despite biological evidence to the contrary. He’s Charles and Di’s son. End of.

Harry actually bears a strong resemblance to a younger Phil the Greek these days

Karen is certainly distraught, Holz and Pip look duly concerned.

La vérité.

Not quite sure what prompted the foreign language but, listening from 2:00 onwards to that video I'd say that no, he doesn't. Quite the opposite, in fact, in his very words...

I really feel like I understand where Meghan is coming from. Home is home. Canada is in the Commonwealth but much more American than a lot of people believe. Does anyone agree?

Let's bloody hope so. They are a shameful embarrassment to the Kingdom of the South Saxons (and no doubt to HM too).

Good riddance.

Are you being facetious? I seriously hope so. Sorry if I've been whooshed. :shrug:

Don’t blame them, a life under the media spotlight must be crap, unless it furnishes an arrogant ego.

Hopefully this will also stop their whinging, although they’ll still be harangued.

They can't have their cake and eat it though can they - take £2.1m fo taxpayers money to do up Frogmore Cottage and then only live in it half the year while swanning about the other half. Maybe it should be listed as a holiday cottage so that we can all take advantage of a week or two at Windsor - unsure how many it sleeps but the cost divided between a whole bunch of friends might be affordable!

What a vile, nasty, ignorant piece of crap Holmes is.

I haven’t watched the bloke for years so I had no idea he was like this. I always thought he was a benign, nicey nicey breakfast host. Didn’t realise he was such a guttersnipe.

I had no idea that suggesting that someone was “uppity” was in any way rascist, until I read that vitriolic article. You learn something everyday.

Mrs LLF has got an afternoon tea for two thing bought as a Christmas gift for her at Windsor Castle to be arranged soon.
I was just going to do it in a day, drive up there and back on the same day, but, if Frogmore Cottage is empty, I will request that we can stay over there for one night.
Well, it would be a shame if all that refurbishment went to waste.

Vitriolic? It's mainly direct quotes.

As for uppity, it's not a very commonly used word but it's typically used to describe black people and women. Definitely has racist and sexist undertones.

Nor I. I consider myself quite up to date with racist slang but even I think that’s a bit far fetched.

I have only ever heard it used about people who are being self important twats regardless of colour :shrug:

Not an oft used word these days though.
