I was hoping this would be a bit more exciting and they would actually be slagging people off and calling people nazis or something. I was expecting scandal but apparently thats not what we are getting.
Boring.

I bet Netflix are a bit fucked off that they blew their load so early with the Oprah thing. I wanna see some juicy dirt on the royals but doesn't look like they have much at all.

I actually know the MP that tabled the private member's bill to strip them of their titles.
He won't be successful.
Once you set the precedent that a royal can be unmade by man then you've acknowledged they aren't appointed by God.
It's not a precedent the firm ever wants set regardless of what a royal does.

Dammit I'm aligned with the Mail on this. I was going to rejoin but can't stand the idea of seeing their simpering faces every time I log on.
I wish Charles would do the right thing and say "look I'm not even your fucken dad anyway, you're stripped of your titles".

I've just given it 15 minutes. It's way too saccharine for me. Especially if they're not even going to say anything controversial.
It seems very much in the "look at these people....they are here for you to look up to and admire" vein. And I include famous actors in that.

They hate it so much they’ve afforded it wall to wall coverage.

Struck me that despite their whinging, what completely wonderful lives of privilege they lead.
Lovely healthy kids, lovely dogs, a superb mansion in a superb area.
Walking the dogs on the beach or in the california hills every day.
Occasionally doing a podcast or attending some spurious award ceremony.
I'm sure people getting up at at 5am to go work a lathe all day have sympathy for their plight

Can't stand EE. It's like no London I know. But I finally gave it the boot when overhearing it from another room, where it just sounded like unlikeable neighbours arguing unconvincingly sans expletives.
Back on topic. Er, Queen Vic. There was a proper Royal or sommat.

I'm glad I watched it if only for one factoid revealed...
When slavery was abolished in the UK they compensated everyone out of the taxpayer's pocket. WTF. The public fucked by the rich again.
Harry and Meg didn't reveal this but they gave platform to someone who did and that the Royal family profited substantially from slavery.
This is what should be headlines instead of who doesn't get on with whom.
This was the true stab in the back to the firm and they deserve it.

So many particulars. So many questions.
Divine right was a hangover from late roman imperial cults and took a massive axeblow during the erm, truncated reign of Charles 1st

Already done in 1936. Yes he chose to abdicate but an act of parliament was needed to make it official.

I've just looked at Mail online - much more fun. They're at Full Foam.
£100M to whine about how ghastly your privileged existence is. Nice work if you can get it.
Yes, it's brilliant. Its filling about half of that ludicrously long home page.

Aye its serious all right. They've even been asking " Princess Diana's former chef" what he thinks.

Brilliant. I find it impossible to tell when the pageantry is mocking or not. I mean Black Rod looks pretty fucking sarcastic to me!

Pretty weird how Meghan apparently had no clue that the royals carried on their formality behind the scenes. She assumed it would be like acting in that when the cameras weren't around everyone would be kicking back and relaxing. Harry seems not to have briefed her, presumably because he lacks any smidgen of self-awareness.
