I highly doubt his funeral will be a full state affair. By all accounts, he wanted a private funeral with military honours. Fair play to him.

Didn't know they made a reality TV show in the 60's.

Surely a case of playing it up for the camera syndrome.

Compelling argument that.
Man of Honour
A very distinguised naval career and, for me, a national treasure and I hope he has found peace.
As an anecdote, I used to work with a lass who was injured in a police vehicle in a pursuit and she went to one of the police treatment centres for physio, Harrogate I think but I might be wrong.
Anyway, Prince Phillip was a guest during her stay and standing beside the lass I know was another lass from another force who was also injured in a police vehicle crash and Phillip asked the lass I know why she was there then the lass next to her said why. Phillip's reply ?
' It doesn't say much for women drivers. '
Slightly contentious in this day and age but I was bad laughing when she told me and she said the whole place fell about laughing when he said it.

Nearly 75 years of service to this country in wartime and peace, and some - on social media, not here I’m pleased to see - have the nerve to abuse him. They should give their heads a shake.
RIP, Duke of Edinburgh. You might not have been everyones favorite. But you used your position many times, to say what many of us minions were thinking, inspired millions and served your country with courage and dignity.
Thank you Sir.

Sad news, despite never meeting him it feels like a personal loss as he's just been a fixture for so many years.
RIP, he will be missed especially by his family, but also throughout the country and across the world.

They could play 99 Luftballons on repeat.
