Yes even I had heard of Suits before they got together.

Was surprised to see Suits was the most-streamed show in the US last year, four years after it ended

Weren’t there some fisting rumours a few decades ago involving him and his private secretary?

Don't think they have private secretaries for that kind of thing nowadays. It's all gone digital.

Groan.

Dunno, but his doctor just gave him the thumbs up

Dunno, but his doctor just gave him the thumbs up

He told the doctor to get his finger out. He takes after his Dad. (Historical reference there. Prince Philip once said that British workers should get their fingers out. In other words, he was calling them lazy).

He's been diagnosed with cancer.

 

[PR1Berske]

He's been diagnosed with cancer.

William and Kate have both just felt a shiver through their spines.

Do we get the day off for this? I'm feeling very emotional about the news so might not go into work for the rest of the week.

They've said that it isn't, according to the Guardian:

King Charles diagnosed with cancer, Buckingham Palace announces

Diagnosis was made recently while Charles underwent treatment for benign enlarged prostate

Prostate cancer i assume.

Any cancer except that one, according to the radio.

 

[ElizabethofYork]

Fucking hell, the BBC are reporting this very somberly, as though he's died.

Sycophantic nonsense.

Says not so i guess they saw something else while doing a scan.

Bbc always same with royal stories.

 

[Silas Loom]

Not another fucking funeral and coronation.

Bladder is the most likely cancer to be identified in the course of prostate investigations , I think.

 

[Santino]

Fucking hell, the BBC are reporting this very somberly, as though he's died.

Sycophantic nonsense.

I think there are three reasons why it's been announced (when the Queen's condition was kept secret for presumably years), and one of those reasons is that he's going to die.

 

[moochedit]

Unusual for them to go public about it.

Is that your optimistic assessment?

Has the King died thread?

He’s quite different from his mum. Perhaps he just wants to get lots of cards from his adoring subjects.

Yeh the only question is when

 

[muscovyduck]

Is he dead yet? Not read the thread

 

[SpookyFrank]

Best laugh I've had in ages, thanks Brian.

My 'not sorry for your loss' card went to camilla 2nd class today so with luck it should reach her at the same time as good news from the hospital (well, good news for me anyway)

 

[BristolEcho]

Fucking hell, the BBC are reporting this very somberly, as though he's died.

Sycophantic nonsense.

Twenty minutes so far. Fucking hell I get it's news, but people get cancer every day and now they are going to Belfast to talk to the political editor.

Not another fucking funeral and coronation.

It got us two extra days off work.

The beeb just said he doesn’t even get out of his weekly meetings with Titchy Rich

 

[Santino]

The Lessons Learned report from the last funeral and coronation probably haven't even been signed off yet.
