The Queen is a person who liked things to carry on.

yes black armbands, and a national tribute, 2 full minutes of silence


royals are massive sports and entertainment fans, so i can also being a moment of remembrance at strictly show considering royals have been their no.1 superfans from the beginning (and somehow even if she survives this, would still be very fitting to do something for them in their 20th jubilee series given they are already also paying tribute to 100 years of british television)


can't see football, rugby being cancelled at all, can just see Britain being more united than ever i think in the mourning period

We should all share our favourite queen stories as the time of her final breath draws near.

An uncle* of mine was in the Navy, and for some event or other he and his shipmates were all lined up, and met the Queen, one after the other. They were all meant to just say a simple and respectful greeting, and let her move on? But he burst out MY WIFE IS EXPECTING. Apparently she looked taken aback but amused, and moved on. (He hadn't long set sail, don't worry, it wasn't the milkman).

A few years later there was a similar event, where they were all lined up, greeting her one after another. She got to him, and asked of it was a boy or a girl!


*Uncle-ish. He wasn't a sibling of either parent, just a distantish relative. I'm not even certain it was the Navy he was in :joker: but the point of the story still stands.

Not heard anyone giving a toss, yet. So i dunno, hold back on the defence of her for the time being, anti royalist or not, the Queen is bigger than Meghan, and Harry, no matter what happens.

Why would Meghan even be welcome in any case? All she has done for the past year is slate the royals. Her PR team need to give her some sound advice through this, and that's probably to keep her mouth shut on the matter, or a brief statement paying tribute. Don't get me wrong, im not really arsed about the Queen, but the Queen passing is bigger than Meghan. A lot of her supports will turn on her if she says something stupid on this one.

Why would Meghan even be welcome in any case? All she has done for the past year is slate the royals. Her PR team need to give her some sound advice through this, and that's probably to keep her mouth shut on the matter, or a brief statement paying tribute. Don't get me wrong, im not really arsed about the Queen, but the Queen passing is bigger than Meghan. A lot of her supports will turn on her if she says something stupid on this one.

What exactly do you think Meghan will say now? , Her husband's grandmother is extremely ill with it being touch & go . You yourself said The Queen is bigger than all this.

And yet Meghan's absence is still causing people to make a fuss , shouldn't this be about The Queen ? . Funny how Andrew the invisible man gets less abuse .

No, i was just giving my opinion. It wasn't even a criticism. Im not speculating on what she will and wont say. I don't "hate" Meghan, jeez. But as a celeb my judgement of her is not one of endearment. Just like i think other celebs are knobs. It doesn't go any deeper than that for me. Get a grip!

Anyway, lets just move on, i responded to your post about them digging, i felt it was a dig at Meghan, and i'll agree, if it was, it was uncalled for. My opinion on her and it as pretty clear. Lets just focus on the news at hand. I apologise for making it more than simply "is Meghan gonna be there or not"

Well over the past year or so ..other royal family members ie Princess Ann & William, have been dealing with some of The Queen's engagements , I remember seeing them do a few knighthoods etc. While The Queen was resting more.

But I think she tries to do as much as she can , maybe she wanted to still meet Truss as it's traditional. But we know how her health has declined recently, and in the latest images she looks very frail.

It does sound like this is the end, you don't rush the whole family up there if this is something she is likely to 'recover' from

The period of mourning will be weird, guess all the weekends football will be called off which is annoying

I know someone whose grandad had a heart attack at the age of 87 and he went to hospital.

Doctors said he had another two heart attacks over the next day. An operation or treatment couldn't be performed as he was too elderly, frail and would die during the operation anyway.

So he was given mophine to make him comfortable but he wasn't told he was going to die. The morphine made he feel okay but he was very ill.


He died the next day. :(

And everything will change now , the national anthem alone 'God save the king' . The Queen is going to leave a big hole, she was always around,head of state . Alot of people will definitely miss her .

Yeah She saw it as her duty .
70 years is such an amazing legacy, it's really sad the family didn't get there in time. But she died peacefully by sounds of it.

Obviously it's an unfortunate piece of news, hopefully the family won't be harassed by our Media during their grieving either.

RIP
