he looked very frail after that hospital stay

I think it's likely they found out he was dying during that stay and were bringing him home to die peacefully in his own bed. It's good that he got that, really.

The Dutch royal family have expressed their deep sadness at the news of the death of Britain’s prince Philip, two months ahead of his 100th birthday. The prince, who married the then-princess Elizabeth in 1947, ‘passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle,’ Buckingham Palace said on Friday.

‘We remember HRH Prince Philip with great respect,’ king Willem-Alexander, queen Maxima and former queen Beatrix said in a joint statement.

‘Throughout his long life, he committed himself with dedication to the British people and to his many duties and responsibilities,’ the statement said. ‘His lively personality never ceased to leave an unforgettable impression. Our deepest and most heartfelt sympathy goes out to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth and all the members of the Royal Family.’

Queen Elizabeth and Philip made official visits to the Netherlands several times and Philip was awarded the order of the Golden Ark by prince Bernhard for his work in nature conservation.

As sad as it is for the family. I think they have known for quite a long time now that it was going to happen. He didn't seem well at all. Those photos of him coming home from hospital I expected that they had send him to pass away at his own house with those he loves. What a long and exciting life he must have had.

The only issue being is that the BC will get 90% of the viewers and with it airing all day nobody gonna really care for the other channels tonight so they will end up being worse off then had they kept original plans.

It is only royal protocol for the BBC to stop entertainment shows no other channel is obliged to do so

yes, there is some artistic freedom in the Crown, but the facts are written in stone in history and they stick very close to them on the majority of cases

Well it was said that Prince Philip was behind Diana's death and that he didn't like her, from what we have seen today its, not so and its the opposite, seems he supported her a lot.

[rusticgal]

I never watched that rusti,but from what I have seen this afternoon he really didnt seem as bad as some of the media made him out to be.


I think it took him a few years to adapt... I think Anne has many of his characteristics with her wit and sarcasm and I get the impression she was his favorite. She was made of sterner stuff...he wasnt one for weakness.
You really should watch The Crown...we only watched it this year and we really enjoyed it. As its been reported...he was a mans man and I think it was hard for him to play second fiddle to the Queen...he must have loved her and he made the role his own and as always we only really all learn all of what he did when he dies.

[rusticgal]

It's always was clear he had a good heart but he let his mouth get away with him and said things he shouldn't have done


Yes I agree.

[rusticgal]

I didnt say it was the worse thing....and if you see it as 'a minor family tiff' then you really havent got a grip on family loyalty and how damaging hurtful accusations have on family relations.

I suspect that as the country is now in mourning, all entertainment, including TV shows are to be suspended for the period of mourning, up to and on the day of the funeral.

I understand that was the protocol when we only had three terrestrial TV stations, so why shouldn't it be the same now?

Yes he has,

[GoldHeart]

Have they taken all the soaps off the repeat he's passed away all evening?

Not really surprising, a royal death will always dominate channels.

Even when he's been ill in the past, it's been the news story all day .

[bots]

Seriously? Good luck with that in this age of technology [emoji28]

when diana died it was grim, it was just constant on every channel. The queen mum and margaret were different, and I think this will be the same as them

[Marsh.]

I suspect that as the country is now in mourning, all entertainment, including TV shows are to be suspended for the period of mourning, up to and on the day of the funeral.

I understand that was the protocol when we only had three terrestrial TV stations, so why shouldn't it be the same now?

Because time's change.

[James]

Quite sad to hear this news. He certainly played a big part in the life of the country over a long time.

RIP.

He's actually not portrayed that badly in the Crown a part from implying he might have have had affairs earlier on in the series which apparently has truth to it

I might give it a watch a few people have said how good it is.

I've not watched it but I imagine it is a heightened version of what really happened.

When you look around social media (like I do sometimes) it is obvious that a lot of Americans have got their view on individual royals from this show.

[Alf]

The referee on the darts isn't even screaming the scores out.

Usually he'll scream one hundred and eighhhhhty. But not tonight, he's just saying 180, quietly. I'm guessing this is down to the Duke of Edinburgh's death.

[Mystic Mock]

He is a prince and the queens husband, he has served the country for 65 years, he’s not just some old man. This is history in the making.

Tbf you don't need 4 channels covering the same topic.

One channel would suffice.

[Tony Montana]

Hell of an age.

[Mystic Mock]

Tbf you don't need 4 channels covering the same topic.

One channel would suffice.

Just to clarify I'm genuinely sad for his family & friends over this news, and I honestly didn't have anything against him on a personal level.

I wanted to clarify this because my post above came off a bit too clinical which isn't my style.

Prince Philip: Funeral to take place on Saturday and will be televised - with national silence at 3pm...



Prince Philip's funeral will take place next Saturday and will be televised to mark the duke's "vast contribution and lasting legacy".

Members of the public will not be allowed to attend as the proceedings have been scaled down due to the pandemic, but a national minute's silence will be held at 3pm before the funeral begins at St George's Chapel.

The proceedings will be kept within the confines of Windsor Castle and the Duke of Edinburgh's body will be carried to the West Steps in a Land Rover, which was specially designed by Philip himself.

Prince Harry will be travelling from his home in the United States to attend, although his pregnant wife Meghan has been advised not to travel.

Prince Philip dies - Live reaction from UK and around the world

There is no confirmation yet on the rest of the guest list, although under government guidance only 30 people will be allowed to attend.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has approved a recommendation for a period of national mourning until next Saturday, according to a Palace source.

They also said the Royal Family will observe two weeks of royal mourning until 22 April, when they will continue engagements where appropriate and wear mourning bands.

It will not be a state funeral, which is usually reserved for the monarch, and is line with the duke's own wishes.

He will also not lie In state and his body remains at rest within a private chapel in Windsor Castle.

Having helped to draw up the details himself, the Duke of Edinburgh was said to have wanted little fuss at his funeral.

The arrangements, codenamed Forth Bridge after the Scottish landmark, have been in place for many years but have been adapted due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The Queen has had final approval of the updated plans, although the original plans were drawn up in consultation with the Duke of Edinburgh himself.

The arrangements will be fully in line with government guidance and guests will be adhering to social distancing rules.

No public processions will take place and the public is being urged not to turn up at the royal residences.

Lord Chamberlain Baron Parker of Minsmere, the most senior official at the royal household, is overseeing the arrangements and will ensure everything is kept to a strict timetable.

Tasked with staging the practical side of the day is the Queen's Comptroller Lieutenant Colonel Michael Vernon, while many others will be involved in the days ahead.

The proceedings were originally planned for 800 attendees in St George's Chapel.

The Queen's four children and their partners - the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, the Princess Royal and Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence, the Duke of York, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex - will undoubtedly be present.

We can also expect Prince Philip's eight grandchildren to be there: Peter Phillips, Zara Tindall, the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of Sussex, Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, Lady Louise Windsor and Viscount Severn.

Meanwhile, future queen the Duchess of Cambridge is also expected to attend.

Members of the public have also joined in their mourning, with some becoming visibly emotional as they paid tribute outside the royal palaces.

People have been urged not to leave flowers at the royal residences to prevent crowds forming, instead being asked to donate to charity or sign an online book of condolence if they wish to pay tribute to the duke.

[Cherie]

I didn't know anything of Philips backstory so it has been interesting to hear it, and how Liz rebelled to marry him.

Also his keen interest in conservation, way before it was fashionable, maybe that is where Charles gets it from

I might need to start watching the Crown :laugh:

US president Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden said:

“On behalf of all the people of the United States, we send our deepest condolences to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the entire royal family, and all the people of the United Kingdom on the death of His Royal Highness Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh.
“Over the course of his 99-year life, he saw our world change dramatically and repeatedly. From his service during World War II, to his 73 years alongside the Queen, and his entire life in the public eye, Prince Philip gladly dedicated himself to the people of the UK, the Commonwealth, and to his family.

“The impact of his decades of devoted public service is evident in the worthy causes he lifted up as patron, in the environmental efforts he championed, in the members of the armed forces that he supported, in the young people he inspired, and so much more. His legacy will live on not only through his family, but in all the charitable endeavours he shaped.
“Jill and I are keeping the Queen and to Prince Philip’s children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren in our hearts during this time.”

[jet]

Former President Trump is calling the death of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, an "irreplaceable loss for Great Britain."

"The world mourns the passing of Prince Philip, a man who embodied the noble soul and proud spirit of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth," Trump said in a statement released hours after Buckingham Palace announced the 99-year-old patriarch of Britain's royal family died "peacefully" at Windsor Castle on Friday.

Trump expressed an admiration for Philip, saying he "defined British dignity and grace."

"He personified the quiet reserve, stern fortitude, and unbending integrity of the United Kingdom," he said. "His exceptional example of service, constancy, and patriotism will be his greatest legacy."

Noting his trips with former first lady Melania Trump to the U.K. during his presidency, Trump said he and his wife "saw firsthand how the Monarchy epitomizes and carries on the virtues of the British People — and no one did so more than Prince Philip."

Trump met the queen twice in visits to Britain while in office. Philip retired from public life in 2017.

The 74-year-old ex-commander in chief, who rarely issues effusive statements about public figures, said Philip's death should inspire the world to "rededicate ourselves to the values to which he devoted his extraordinary life."

"He will be greatly missed," Trump said of Philip.

A portrait, which shows Her Majesty, 94, sitting next to Prince Philip, was posted on the Royal Family’s social media along with a moving quote from the monarch about her husband from a speech she made celebrating their golden wedding anniversary in 1997.

She said: ‘He has, quite simply, been my strength and stay all these years, and I, and his whole family, and this and many other countries, owe him a debt greater than he would ever claim, or we shall ever know.’ :love: :sad:

...she isn’t a guardian journalist, she’s a Canadian who was asked to write a parody/comedy piece by the Guardian 5 yrs ago/a one off and she was asked because she is a Canadian..and I can’t see what her political leaning would be but I can’t see it relevant as to what it is either because what she’s said is obviously for some type of trolling impact and not something to be posted in this thread because surely that’s just feeding that type of trolling which is completely inappropriate ...

I would understand, as a Canadian, why she wouldn't necessarily be a fan of the royal family. we screwed the whole country because of immigrants, but we'd be respectful if we were just given the Spanish Royal family as our heads of state? No way.
