They should just bury him in the Land Rover to mislead future archaeologists about how this strange early 21st-century society honoured dead royals.

 

[William of Walworth]

Are they deliberately/ironically nauseating, do you think, or is the effect unintentional?

Unintentional.
Wanna see some more?

No more please Mrs M., absolutely no more!!

The existence of the royal family I can just about cope with/force myself to tolerate, but 'art' that bad is many times as offensive!

They're not burying him tomorrow though. He has to lie in the vault until the Queen dies, and then they get buried together.
That Land Rover will never be used again. Keep an eye out in Exchange and Mart. Customised Land Rover for sale, one previous owner, three miles on the clock. Genuine mileage. Twenty Five Millionty Gazillion Quid, ono.

...they really are horrific pictures to be sure

 

[moochedit]

wow really - i've seen that loads this last week and assumed it was satirical

I've seen of version of that picture on facebook with "this made my heart melt! Together in heavon!" at the top or some bollocks like that and most of the comments were people saying how wonderfull it was
A few were making jokes about cars and tunnels and getting replys saying how nasty they were!

I love a bit of royal kitsch, not gonna lie. It's the only thing they're good for.

Truth and satire getting blurred again. Six inappropriate ways Britons will be remembering Prince Philip

 

[Idris2002]

That took him 16 years to do. Still, I'm sure he didn't have much time to spare with all his other vital work of sort of showing up at places and doing a bit of waiving.

Britannia waives the rules.

I'm quite happy for you to study, interpret and critique his entire oeuvre on our behalf, TBH.

Got my obligatory mail from the Beeb

Sorry I don't know why that image is so big or how I can make it smaller.

It is no less dismissive than the responses I have received over the years to other complaints that I have made - the BBC is well versed in the art of giving a virtual 2 finger salute to any complaints.

It's small enough, can barely read it

 

[Teaboy]

I did wonder who was actually going to the effort of bothering to complain about the BBC coverage. Now I find out it was mostly urbs.

It was hardly an effort, they put up a special page so we didn't have to type much.

burn it first though and throw in a tesco's bag

 

[Argonia]

Coverage on BBC is going to be 6 hours. 6 hours I will be entirely missing. I will complain about it again.

BBC to show six hours of TV programmes for Prince Philip's funeral after record complaints

Coverage of the funeral preparations will begin the day before

these are photoshops of photos aren't they? they aren't even original paintings. slightly disappointed about that - there needs to be an inept paintbrush at work ideally

No they really are paintings by an artist from Malaysia.

 

[killer b]

Not sure I believe that - they look like they've just whacked up the contrast and stuck a photoshop 'brushstrokes' filter on some doctored photos...

Well maybe. I don't really know. Whatever her process is, they are toe-curlingly awful.

 

[Mation]

Anyone else looking for Phil Mitchell in this pic?

 

[stavros]

They can't surely put the fucking funeral on BBC One and Two at the same time again can they? And ITV? Hopefully Channel 4 will be safe.

I looked at the guide and thankfully day 1 of the snooker WCs is safe on BBC2.

Yes, there was a comment on one of the WC FB pages stating that you could safely buy tickets for the Sat. afternoon session, because the funeral had been arranged at too short notice to change plans.

 

[Shechemite]

I take it all back, I want to be an anarchist again Care regulator ‘directed’ to stop publishing inspection reports during mourning for Prince Philip

 

[nottsgirl]

Is he still dead?

 

[not-bono-ever]

Maybe there is a show stopper, like hollywood vikings, maybe the land rover hearse will be set aflame with HRH inside. its what he would have wanted. I know its what I want

 

[not-bono-ever]

How bad will it be when she goes ? I cant be in this country when it happens
