Rule Britannia

Did anyone see the pic of Prince Harry in today's Metro?  Weird, but he actually looked like Prince Philip, facially.   Could it be they are blood-related after all?  Phil would be so proud...

EDIT... 
This is the pic I mean.... (is it my imagination, or is he becoming more Philipy?)

Given the popularity of inbreeding in the upper eschelons of toffery, I would have thought there was a good chance they share DNA regardless of Harry's paternity.

Good point... (perhaps Philip is James Hewitt's dad!)

Or maybe that special brand of strained-looking grin is a side effect of many years elongating vowels in the most painful way possible.

ms_siobhan observed yesterday that Harry's latest tabloid fracas is interesting from a nature/nurture point of view as he has certainly inherited a great deal from Grandfather Philip whether or not there is a direct biological link...

Very true... I had a similar thought (until I saw that pic and thought hang on.... could it be nature AND nurture?)

Ah, nobody does farce like our royal family...

You have to wonder about someone who's so removed from reality he doesn't know (apparently) that Paki and Raghead are insults.

Indeed. The stupidity is amazing, when you consider that he has probably been trained since birth on how to behave in public.

I guess a few dinners with the Grandparents can undo the finest efforts of Debretts.

In teh army it is still routine to refer to the Scots as 'porridge wogs'.

He does not look like Prince Philip. Prince Philip was a bit of a dish in his day! I'd do have done him...

Yes but you're a thoroughly disturbed woman. (Says me... who once went out with a ginger who looked like Prince Harry)
