The Royal Family #17

[wafflesnwings]

I don’t know what it’s like where you are but it’s bucketing down with thunder here - feels very fitting for the mood

We have very dark clouds at the moment and predications of a thunderstorm later in the afternoon

 

[Kitty-Kat]

As others have said, this does feel like the end, something feels very different. I feel instinctively she has died or very close to. The fact that newsreaders in black too. I'm on a training course today but checking phone sneakily every few mins.

Agree. I think as soon as everyone is at Balmoral we'll be told.

 

[Boring Monday]

I don’t think she has, I’ve been watching flight radar and no helicopters have landed at Balmoral - I’d imagine we’d see more activity if she had already passed. The private jets are landing at Aberdeen airport.

Either way, if London Bridge has indeed fallen, we may not know until closer to the 6 o clock news

To be fair, if she’s gone already there’s no rush … just A Need to get Charles and everyone there before any announcement And all,the constitutional ducks in a row.

Front benches in parliament cleared about an hour ago

 

[Eirawen]

You know when you are actually watching history unfold as it happens

Yes indeed

BBC One have cancelled programmes this afternoon (I believe, looking at the schedule on the tv. It originally said 1-2 when I switched the tv on).
The news is to go on until 6pm

 

[Gold_7]

I’m so sorry. I know it feels like a huge thing to follow but it’s ok to take a break from the constant rolling news. Please take care of yourself. Is there anyone that can be with you?

You’re so sweet, thank you. They are all travelling to be with her and I’m so glad for them as we couldn’t due to Covid.

 

[Miffy29]

Seems to be quite a few helicopters in and around Aberdeen Airport now.

 

[Gloria Rostron]

Not looking good for her is it?

 

[ArdeeGal]

Awh gosh Huw Edwards is in a black tie on the BBC news - I think they’re biding the time until they can announce

 

[Kitty-Kat]

Yes indeed

Sat on my arse commenting on Tattle...

 

[WordsFromReuben]

I wonder why are the BBC news team wearing black if she’s not passed yet?

 

[PoppyKittens]

Huw edwards in black tie now!

 

[Squittel]

Does Huw Edwards usually do the lunchtime news or has he been wheeled out for the announcement?

Huw edwards in black tie now!

Urgh I am not ready for this

 

[Dancing_in_the_dark]

I feel so sad as you know it’s only a matter of time really. The queen has always been there, it’s like a whole new era is about to begin.

 

[Blond3g1rl]

Seems to be quite a few helicopters in and around Aberdeen Airport now.

There is one coming in from the direction of Germany. Isn’t that where Harry is?

 

[shakeatailfeather]

I work for a large newspaper and we have yet to be briefed, which i'm surprised about

 

[Scottishfalpal1]

Nicolas witchell looks like he’s gonna cry

 

[VicksterIcon]

Is it me or do Huw Edwards and Nicholas Witchell look as though they have been crying??

 

[I steal names]

Duke & Duchess of Sussex will be travelling to Scotland, according to a spokesman.
