maybe he'll have a massive coronary when his ma pops her clogs

The King faked his own death at Graceland to get away from the colonel He works down our chip shop.

I hope he hangs on in there as he's a pretty big liability to the monarchy. Things would be worse if his non-entity son took over. He keeps such a low profile I can't even recall his name.

Charles is going to the country into a...

 

[MickiQ]

Deffo want Chucky on the throne for a few years, It going straight to Billy The Bald at this point in time runs the risk of the monarchy geting a new lease of life. Chucky is much more likely to undermine it.

I hope he hangs on in there

Might be a struggle with those sausage fingers

 

[brogdale]

chapeau to steveseagull for being so quick off the mark, but how can we have this thread without the words old sausage fingers in the title?

Apparently he’s with all his close family right now, has to be a sign of something.

Life expectancy of a King Charles is 9-14 years. Let's hope it's not that long.

Oh sorry, that's for dogs.

Charles III or George VII, not yet confirmed. Liz did give permission for Camilla to use the title "Queen".

 

[steveseagull]

I can change the thread title.

let's go....

 

[planetgeli]

Charles III or George VII, not yet confirmed. Liz did give permission for Camilla to use the title "Queen".

Among some of the most useless knowledge I've ever picked up (or maybe made up) in my life, I think he committed to George. Or Ethelred.

 

[Dystopiary]

Charles Windsor's time is up.

Truss has announced that Chuck will be King Charles III

 

[danny la rouge]

Truss has announced that Chuck will be King Charles III

The end of that sentence was a disappointment. A double funeral would save us money.

 

[PR1Berske]

Truss has announced that Chuck will be King Charles III

It'd be very characteristic of her if she's just got his name wrong.

[geminisnake]

I wondered earlier if the nonce might become so grief stricken he tops himself, not Charles but this thread is close enough

 

[SE25]

Hopefully he rocks the boat enough to put normal people off the whole show

Obviously the sausage fingers don't bode well for his longevity. But the psychological factor must play into this too. For at least 40 years now he must have woken up every morning thinking 'Come the fuck on!' - his only goal and purpose the succession. The release of reaching that at last, as a less than healthy older man himself - it's a bit like how you finally take a few days off and THEN you get the cold, times a thousand.

Imagine starting a big new job in you 70s when really you really just want to chill out and watch daytime telly and drink cherry brandy or whatever.

yeah, being heir apparent for 71 years is a bit like being brought on in the 6th minute of added extra with no prospect of penalties

Imagine careers day as a teenager. "I want to be a doctor/ a lawyer/a plumber/I don't give a fuck" etc etc... But your career path is waiting for your mother to die.

 

[bellaozzydog]

I reckon he’s already been stented and is living on borrowed time.

5 years tops

Imagine that your big new jobs IS chilling out and watching daytime telly but all you can find is programmes about your dead mother.

He survived a meeting with Liz Truss today so maybe we should not underestimate him too much.

He's bound to get a lecture from Blair at/after the funeral service, possibly from Brown too. Boris may try, but Charlie will likely be sheilded from this by umbrella-waving footmen. Major will sit at the back with a wry smile reading "I own your bitch ass". Mayhem will probably be stuck at the door handing out the order of service or collecting everyone's coats.
