The Queen RIP

[Former_Antelopee]

Why is this?

They just cut to the studio so whatever the reason must’ve been over

 

[DameKitty]

Just awaiting protocol from the above to pass over to my staff. Ive already had three draft emails to send out. Not as many people at the Palace as I thought there would be.

I imagine that may increase now the official notice has been placed on the railings.

Maybe a chemo tap ?

I wouldn't have thought so, they wouldn't put chemo through a line in your hand... it's been bloods taken or a line put in for fluids.... regardless it's sad, and I feel terrible for even speculating.

 

[WhiteFlorals]

I feel the same way. I think they are a better solution than President Blair or Cameron!

I've never been a Royalist, but I have always admired and respected the Queen. She was an exemplary woman and always appeared with dignity and grace. She also grafted until the very end. We're lucky to have had her as a female role model representing our Monarchy.

I feel sad that she's passed away. She's like a grandmother that we never met but it was always comforting to know she's there.

I really hope now the Daily Mail will address Catherine correctly now.
No more Kate Middleton, they have got away with that for years.
Highly disrespectful.

Seems unlikely. There's an article on there currently with the headline:

Kate Middleton becomes the first Princess of Wales since Diana

 

[NellySmellyBelly]

At least a year I read

Wow, I did not think it would be that long

very cold and unfeeling, clearly the speech was written for her and not well rehursed! The way she delivered the speech, finished with God save the King and turned round and went back into number 10. No recpectful pause, just a hasty retreat. She had clearly thrown a black dress on and not even looked in the mirror as the neckline was askew. No respect for the monarch who had granted her the right to govern and form a government a few days earlier. Totally disrespectful and not a good start to her new job!!

Yes definitely not a great start.

I prefer William to Charles, I bet a lot of people do, but first-born has taken the throne since the very beginning and I don't see why it should change now.

Yes I'd prefer it to be Charles too! But obviously yes as you say things won't just change now.

 

[whatsever you]

Sophie Raworth sounds like she's very hoarse today. Didn't see her reporting yesterday but sounds like she's struggling a bit with it today.

Yeah I’m watching too. Surprised they’ve put her on air. Her voice is slightly irritating

 

[Mermer89]

It's part of the London Bridge is down plan.

The next monarch speaks at 6pm if an announcement is to be made.

Isn’t it the PM that addresses the nation?

Isn’t it that the next monarch speaks at 6pm the next day?

There it is RIP

 

[Pipsy]

Also where is Harry???

Photographed in the car arriving at Balmoral, driving with Prince Andrew as his passenger.

 

[fjjh86]

Such a dedicated woman. So sad

 

[Whenthelightsturntostars]

I saw a tweet saying Northern Ireland were lighting fireworks, my oh family members from Belfast are coming to stay in a couple weeks I’ll be interested to see what they say about it

There also people leaving flowers at Hillsborough Castle today.

 

[Former_Antelopee]

Could it be that Meghan was going to go until the news came that she passed away so she decided not to go?

 

[Glitz]

I’d normally be buzzing if so But I’m on maternity, not very thoughtful of her to wait

I'm on mat leave too and get an extra days holiday added to my balance for any bank holidays. Hoping to take a month's holiday before I have to go back to have a cash boost

 

[Merpedy]

Do we think Harry is on this private jet?

He won’t be there for 7PM then?

Damn, it might be tomorrow then. I really doubt it would be at 10PM

 

[Y0H0]

I imagine that may increase now the official notice has been placed on the railings.

Yes I work for the local government. Some parts of my building is crucial (remained open all though out covid) but most of it isn't.

 

[Somerset girl]

I thinks shes died couple of army contacts sait theyve started operation london bridge

Yes they have but I'm not sure if that confirms she's dead or if they are just readying themselves.

Announced.
