Harry & Meghan #268 ArcheSayonara….I’m too big-headed for a Tiara

You can turn your sound down, click on it and put subtitles on in settings!

Ooh thank you @oogling I never knew that.

The thread on this issue in t'other place is pretty irrational, Lady Susan should be removed from the face of this earth ASAP apparently. Was she insensitve? yes. Is there a potential agenda? Yes. Is she 83, rich, white, been in royal circles for years, with potentially some perceptions based around that? Yes.

Bloody hell I'm getting a terrible time on there

We both have what what I think are called RP accents.

Well that's your answer.
This friend of yours isn't complaining that she's not seen as British, but that she's not seen as middle class.
With all the expected deference that comes with being middle class.

Fucking love Pdina ... she cracks me up.

Lady Susan was married to Marmaduke Hussey, former chairman of the BBC. He was always known as Dukie, and I had the pleasure of working with him many years ago. He lost a leg in the war, went on to become editor of The Times and then the Beeb. Lovely man. Very well-connected couple.

is this the chairman who was portrayed in a Crown episode ?

 

[Amelia99]

There's no need to apologise.

Let me ask you question, when you say you have a British accent, what accent is it?
And this black friend of yours what accent do they have?

We both have what what I think are called RP accents.

Was it Norman Baker? Very interesting.

Yes, that was his name, Norman Baker.

It's very bizarre that all these "incidents " are now suddenly appearing...just as W and C are about to do the Earthshot.

Just read that Lady Hussey is Prince Williams godmother

Spoiler: OT: For Cassandra333 (true crime)

This is a crazy/great story!

Oh I've done that one. Fascinating stuff.

 

[Tangent Tiger]

So true

I'd like to hear her POV

Bookworm. A review of Courtiers book

 

[Ladygisborne]

i didnt realise there was a rave thread for these pair, this one is No 268, the rave one is No 2

I thought it was a rather clever title for the new thread!

 

[wibble]

I don't mean to cause offence and excuse my ignorance but what is a RP accent?

Received Pronunciation.
It's a dialect of Standard English.

Have you got any more info on this?

 

[ToodliePips]

I was reading the tweets with the pics from the event. I think the pic was from squaddies - they brought the framed photos to the event. The other tables with the business women don’t have the frames or the Halloween candy. I could be wrong, but that’s what it looks like to me.

What does it say on the screen? 3 words all beginning with S if my eyesight is ok. Tell me it isn’t Sussex Squad

 

[wibble]

Interesting...

 

[wibble]

What? How on earth do you come to that conclusion? That’s not what my friend thinks at all. And I think she knows her mind better than you do as you’ve never met her and know. nothing about her. And what’s this about the middle classes expecting deference? I can honestly say I don’t expect deference from anybody. Why should I?

You've just said your accent is middle class... and presumably since you say her accent is PR too, then she is middle class.
And now you are going to pretend that the middle class don't expect deference.
How very PLU.
Pass the fish knives Norman...
