Could you explain to me why yours is the standard dismissive question to everything about the Royals?

Not that that every crosses the Royals minds.

That's interesting. Did you have 16mm cine cameras and Rolleiflex cameras? Or were yours what normal people had to have?

So do I!

Edward VII was much maligned, but ended up loved by his subjects. Hope the same happens for Charles.

Exactly what I was thinking. It's quite bizarre.

So lovely to see Prince Charles genuinely having a great laugh at the old footage.

He doesn't comment much about his father though.

You obviously hate them, I personally wouldn't help with viewing figures if I felt the same way as you do.

I don't and am loving it!

They've lasted well over the years, the quality of what he was showing is pretty decent

And they bring in more revenue to the country than they cost us. And only cost a tax payer 62p a year

Lord Mountbatten was like a father to Charles, he was so sad at his death.

Fully explained in previous post.

Why is the answer to the Royals to just ignore them if you don't like it? We can ignore them if they stop taking our money and have back all the things that where handed to them on a plate.

Me too, and I'm by no means pro royal. It's nice to see behind the scenes footage when everyone is far more relaxed

So where does it say that this is a Royal appreciation thread?

Disgusting that people are trying to close down free speech.

Shameful!

They take people's money and then people rush to suppress, stop and cover up any other view than that of treating them like gods.

And they pay quite a bit of tax these days
