Fuck washing a crown, then

the issue of the queen's potential longevity came up in conversation yesterday. I wondereif she lived to be 120 or whatever then entered a permanent vegetative state and was being kept alivish on a life-support machine, whose decision would it be whether or not to switch the thing off? Would it require an act of parliament?

As the procession reached the corner outside Barclays, the Welsh Guards played a version of Procul Harum's Whiter Shade of Pale and Iris began to pack up. The handover of her flowers to the Queen had taken approximately two seconds. Was it worth it? "Oh yes," she said. "It wouldn't have been fair to keep her. And there'll be other opportunities. Just think, only another seven years and it's the diamond jubilee!"

Whiter Shade of Pale? wtf? Is The Guardian being funny here?

I think it was just that the writer was ignorant of the tune's classical origins. If they'd played Pachelbel's Canon he'd probably say it was All Together Now.

― MarkH (MarkH), Saturday, 22 April 2006 11:22 (twenty years ago)

Christ, that's painful! A perfect example of why I never believe anything I read in the fucking guardian.

If Charles died suddenly, would Andrew become King next? Or would Camilla become Queen and then William after her?

― JTS (JTS), Saturday, 22 April 2006 19:48 (twenty years ago)

I believe the succession is Charles, William, Harry, and then Andrew.

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Saturday, 22 April 2006 19:50 (twenty years ago)

I wonder if the whole "heir's wife has to be a virgin" law still applies (because that's why Charles couldn't marry Camilla originally). Diana had to be examined, and yes, she was a virgin in 1981(!). I wouldn't mind Kate Middleton to be Queen, but she probably can't be if she and Wills have already "done it", so to speak.

It's a handy guide for dating royal heirs, if he fucks you he doesn't want to marry you.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Saturday, 22 April 2006 20:30 (twenty years ago)

check wikipedia. they list the succession list down to something like the 800th person, if memory serves.

― MarkH (MarkH), Sunday, 23 April 2006 00:46 (twenty years ago)

AND I'M NOT ON THERE!

-- M. White (boeldie...), April 21st, 2006.

This makes me so happy.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 18 June 2006 18:42 (twenty years ago)

the planes were awesome actually. we were on a 48 bus down Hackney Road and heard/saw the various waves (seemed like ten in total, all around 20 seconds apart) flying overhead including the Red Arrows, that one with the crazy revolving radar dish on top and the tiny jets that really did look like alien invaders.

when she's only 6ft 11¾ xpost

this line from the Queen to Michelle: "Now we've met, will you please keep in touch?" sounded sweetly sincere when I heard it on the radio this morning.

― rip dom passantino 3/5/09 never forget (max), Thursday, 2 April 2009 15:29 (seventeen years ago)

ipod was preloaded with films of the Queen's trip to Virginia last year. and also s1 of battlestar galactica and 60 hours of drone.

― N1ck (Upt0eleven), Thursday, 2 April 2009 15:30 (seventeen years ago)

On Wednesday, Michelle Obama put her hand on the Queen only after the Queen had placed her own hand on the First Lady's back as part of their conversation... (Less explicable was when President George W. Bush winked at the Queen.)

Seriously, I'm enjoying this "Fuckin' With The Queen" routine my nation's leaders keep pulling.

Throw some tea off a ship, that usually annoys 'em

― Sacco, Vanzetti, Passantino... (Tom D.), Thursday, 2 April 2009 15:41 (seventeen years ago)

I hope Michelle Obama didn't contract syphilis.

Queen Elizabeth II - what's on your iPod?

― Matt DC, Thursday, 2 April 2009 15:42 (seventeen years ago)

Knew that was coming.

― •--• --- --- •--• (Pleasant Plains), Thursday, 2 April 2009 15:49 (seventeen years ago)

Proabably not even her fingerprints.

― Aimless, Thursday, 2 April 2009 18:04 (seventeen years ago)

what's with obama giving heads of state dvds and ipods... seems a bit cheap to be honest

the dvd thing was a little o_O. but the queen apparently requested the video ipod, because she didn't have one.

― paper plans (tipsy mothra), Thursday, 2 April 2009 19:11 (seventeen years ago)

but yeah the idea that gently touching her is some huge offense ... we fought a war to get away from that monarchist bullshit, thanks.

― paper plans (tipsy mothra), Thursday, 2 April 2009 19:12 (seventeen years ago)

"How I would desire an Apple iPod. Perhaps I can ask that young President of the United States to bring me one, wot wot."

Palace officials have complained that they lack funds to properly maintain some royal residences. They once claimed that part of the facade of Buckingham Palace was in such bad repair that a chunk fell off, narrowly missing Princess Anne.

two words: REALITY TELEVISION

Name/theme song of the show?

UK Big Brother is currently in progress and suffering poor ratings - kill two birds with one stone and bung the whole family in there.
