The minute she married it was her surname too (if she wanted to use it or not). People expect (especially back then) women to take the man’s surname but the minute they get divorced then they can’t use it? So ridiculous to me.

Plus they are clearly rich enough for drivers so were obviously just using it as a 'get out-of jail' card.
Not that she was going to jail, obvs...
hahaha my keyboard keys are sticky need a new one. Well he was regarded as some kind of musical Norse God and still is!!!!I read that as ‘worshipped IKEA god’ and got well confused
The comments on the Preslaw website (I linked to earlier) http://preslaw.info/divorce-papers-elvis-presley-and-priscilla-presley are interesting. Some fans absolutely hate Priscilla and think she has traded off Presley's name after his death (and they vaguely say they saw the statement - for Priscilla not to use the Presley name post-divorce - on the divorce papers online, but some have now been removed. Interestingly, the Preslaw site has the divorce papers, some are missing. When and where they saw this stipulation, no-one ever says).
There are others who point to the fact Elvis' divorce attorney called him one of the most unselfish men he'd ever met, who only wanted to make his ex-wife happy (by all accounts their split was reasonably amicable), and they say he wouldn't be so petty as to bar her from using the Presley name. Also, Priscilla did appear in some articles and TV interviews using the Presley name in public whilst Elvis was alive, without any repercussions.
Some fans think Ginger Alden is the true "Elvis widow" as they were engaged to be married, and she's had a hard time of it from Priscilla (not sure how or why). Ginger's mother sued the Elvis estate because he promised to pay off their mortgage, but died before he could keep his promise! http://preslaw.info/alden-v-presley-1982
In the early 1970s Priscilla did make a go of trying her own clothing brand / boutique called Bis & Beau in 1973 (assume "Beau" was for "Beaulieu" and Bis was the co-owner, Olivia Bis). Very 1970s!

I always get the feeling that Charles was looking for Father figures, he didn't seem to Gel with his biological Dad but was close to Lord Mountbatten and Lawrence Van Der Post who were rumoured to be interested in people that were far far too young for them! Wonder if he saw JS as some kind of cuddly Daddy figure who would also give him advice and fool around with him (not sexually)
These conspiracy posts always remind me of the saying "Don't be so open minded that your brains fall out."
Then he challenged Bowie outside Right Here, Right Now.
I would have thought Michael Caine could afford to pay qualified nurses for round the clock care if he was that frail.
Surnames are basically a fiction to make it easier to identify people, tbh. It's very very easy to change your surname, and you can call yourself whatever you like. Can be a bit of a hassle with banks and professional bodies, but that's about it.
Doesn't she remember that Bambi's mother got shot? Just saying!
Don't remember the rest of the film, much, as I was inconsolable after seeing that as a little kid.
Other than that there was a friendly (but a bit annoying) bunny in it. Will the next kid be called 'Thumper'?
ETA: Just realized- 'Thumper Fury'!

Hate Minchin’s comedic efforts…..to me he seems an insufferable pretentious bore which in itself is not a problem (see Stewart Lee), that coupled with the fact that he isn’t funny makes it a problem.
Bumped into him a couple of years ago in Starbucks in New York, he was with Lily Rose Depp (girlfriend at the time). I didn’t have a scooby, vaguely recognised her but she’s nothing like the Chanel ad pictures! Meanwhile my sister is elbowing me like mad because she knows who he is but doesn’t want him to know that she knows!! They were both trying way too hard to be cool….

I adore Cary Grant, I could watch him all day but Jason Isaacs? As Cary Grant? No ta!
I agree, but I don't like Stewart Lee either.
Oh my god the peach! After our encounter with Timothee in NYC, my son (then 18) and I decided to find the film on the flight home, just to find the peach scene (which had been described quite graphically to us by my sister). We had to watch with a blanket over our heads so nobody else could see what we were watching
Stewart Lee is marmite. Ranty and self righteous left leaning BBC set. But he can be funny….occasionally.
If anyone has bad things to say about this wonderful ginger man I’m off in a huff. I absolutely love him! And yes I am ginger too so I can say it!
Let's hope she doesn't call the next one Dumbo if it's a boy...Doesn't she remember that Bambi's mother got shot? Just saying!
