[TV] The Truth

[Thunder Bolt]

Here is the man himself requesting "privacy". I'm not sure of the time lapse between his plea for privacy and him pitching up on Oprah.

Prince Harry: 'everyone has the right to privacy' – video

Prince Harry criticises the ‘incessant’ intrusions into his private life in a BBC interview with Andrew Marr Show aired on Sunday to mark the opening of the Invictus Games in Florida

Prince Harry: media intrusion is 'incessant and unnecessary'

‘Everyone has a right to their privacy’, he says, but ‘sadly’ some don’t get it

www.theguardian.com

The exact words which don’t mean he requested privacy.
In responding to what Andrew Marr acknowledged was “a cheeky question” during his TV programme, the prince spoke of “incessant” and “unnecessary” intrusions into his privacy.


Marr asked: “A bit like your mother, you are pursued every minute of every day by lots of people trying to take photographs, videoing, recording what you’re saying, pushing... how can you possibly have a private life?”

“Sadly,” said the prince, “that line between public and private life is almost non-existent.” Then came what sounded like a heartfelt statement:

“Everyone has a right to their privacy, and a lot of the members of the public get it, but sadly in some areas there is this sort of incessant need to find out every little bit of detail about what goes on behind the scenes. It’s unnecessary.”

so if not for some privacy, what made the Prince give up his royal patronage and military associations? a change of scene i suppose, living the life of a royal in US, fame without the responsiblity, pursue a career in production and acting.

It's a recurring circle. If Harry believes it is unnecessary to find out every little detail of what goes on behind the scenes, then why the 6-part series to tell us what went on behind the scenes?

To be fair, he didn't want to give up his royal patronage or military associations. He wanted to keep them and use them in America.

I know, and wish to know, nothing about who you are, where you come from, or your background.

oh, so sorry to hear that. It will dramatically make the rest of my life so much worse for your absence.

But I find it amusing that you now say what you do as you quickly jumped in to promote your frail idea that I must be racist.

You Rather prove my point in that you say I don’t or don’t wish to know anything (or facts about me) yet feel you are qualified to state I have racist reasonings.

How ironic are you. You say you ‘don’t know anything about me’ but feel qualifed to throw out the insults…. Priceless, just priceless.

I'm sure both of its viewers have cleared their diaries in anticipation.

I'm sure both of its viewers have cleared their diaries in anticipation.

Well there's a few on here who seem to be very excited by the prospect. If I weren't so diplomatic, I may be tempted to say all the usual suspects

You and me both bouncing this thread is probably making them even more angry (regardless of which side they're supporting)

 

[Wardy's twin]

Could not agree more as these two are a total embarrassment to Gods County

I thought at least one of them was British.

Link here. The same reported in the Daily Telegraph,

https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/celebrity-life/royals/harry-and-meghans-netflix-doco-called-out-for-multiple-misleading-photos/news-story/0ca034cb324797df67d3494086916bef

One of them is a photo shoot of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows red carpet - easy mistake to make, of course. Harry Potter, Prince Harry.

Another is a picture of Prince Harry with his arm round Chelsy Davy, his then girlfriend; another is an official photo that they knew about and posed for; another is a press pack chasing Katy Price, and another is Michael Cohen being chased in New York.

It's reminiscent of that TV series "The Monocled Mutineer", when the whole thing was described as truth, but was revealed as fiction; the producers then said that even if it was fiction, it revealed a greater truth.

The reality is most media outlets are guilty of the same when promoting a story, often using stock footage or unrelated footage.

You need to seperate the trailer from the movie I'm afraid.

Whilst it may be reminiscent, dramatisation of historic events is unrelated. Equally annoying, but quite a different problem.

The problem I have with them is whilst they obviously have serious concerns, pick your outlet to express them wisely.

You only have to look at the events of the last week to see that often what surrounds the Royal Family is stuck in the dark ages. Unfortunately the serious broadsheets and major news outlets don't pay for stories.

Netflix very much does.

Why does anyone want to take sides? As in any family problem, there are faults on both sides.

 

[Icy Gull]

Astounded that someone who claims he left his family to avoid the media glare continues to court it and do his dirty laundry in public. As bad as his mother imo

He bloody loves it, and wants it on his terms too.

It WILL end in tears eventually

Probably bored to tears!!

Today's the day! The truth is out!!!

Looking forward to binging on this later....

He isn't acting like a man so desperate for privacy though is he? In fact he seems to be doing everything he possibly can to keep himself in the spotlight of public attention.

I could fully understand his break from the Royal Family and move abroad for a life of peace and solitude but it just appears, more and more, to be a move motivated by attention-seeking and money-making.

He isn't getting any money from the Royal Family, so he is entitled to earn money.

If people ignored them, there wouldn't be half the publicity. The newspapers stir up most of the rubbish because it sells papers. They treat them like soap operas.

Example How dare she wear a white dress to an awards ceremony.

Indeed.

He clearly doesn't want any privacy.

Plenty of other jobs he could do to earn a crust without sitting under the spotlight.

Except he is earning/milking every penny due to his Royal background. Pretty unsavoury all round given the media were allegedly the reason he left in the first place and now he’s playing up to it at every opportunity. What a hypocrite he is, as unpleasant as his uncle Andrew without the paedo connections imo. Two entitled no marks, I feel sorry for his brother.

 

[Lenny Rider]

Its almost like Markle has acted like some Trojan Horse, infiltrating the Royal Family in an attempt to destroy it from within?
