No slight on her but when she dies it will be a great day as it should be the beginning of the death of the royal family as it’s seen in the UK currently.
William appears to be completely groomed to be head of the institution. It will continue. Most likely forever.

I'm a bit miffed we don't get a day off for her funeral. I'll probably take the day off anyway because I'll want to watch it. The music will be amazing as well.

You think? I couldn't listen to Radio 3 the day of Philip's funeral because it was all painfully boring chamber music.
The music was incredible and the new piece set to Psalm 104 was one of the best modern pieces of choral music I've heard. If you're deaf or have no taste then I suppose it would have been boring.

The real question is, what the drop on BBC Radio 1 Dance will be like this time:


I have no idea if this is real, but it made me laugh.

This is being leaked because the Media companies know that 5 days of official mourning is just ridiculous and people won't stand for it.

24 hours of rolling news on her death and a day for her Funeral would be fine, but the protocols in place now are excessive.

The complaints about Prince Phillips death coverage were massive. 5-7 days of that will actually lead to riots on the street if it happens at the wrong time of year.

The Queen never existed. All you ever saw throughout your entire life was a media represented image of her. She was but a pixel on your screen, a flicker on your TV.
I saw her in Manchester during the Silver Jubilee in 1977. For some reason, she also went to Stockport.

I have no idea if you're joking or not but I won't deny having bad taste :nervous:

C'mere to me now, if you didnt enjoy that choral music you are nothing better than a street urchin who should be put down immediately :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:.

She is 95 and just lost a lifelong partner. In such circumstances it isn't unusual for the remaining partner declines a bit faster.

She'd be my favourite if she was the last one.

Are we absolutely sure they didn’t do a Paul McCartney on it and replace her with a double 50 years ago? Just something to think about.
