Surely he’s writing about the wrong Endgame?

Yet I don't see Andrew being dragged into everything

You do realise that by dragging Andrew into the discussion confirms you don’t really have anything to back up your comments?

Unless of course Scobie decides to write a book about him as well.

If you read the OP you will see I haven’t mentioned Harry and Meghan.

If Omid Scobie is such a decent guy, why is he so keen to make money out of writing a book called, 'Endgame' - a 'penetrating investigation' about the Royal Family's 'fight for survival'?

Rather presumptuous don’t you think considering no insider or courtier/member of staff would have given him the time of day.

But as you say It’s their truth. 🤔

I should have left when I seen what this was about. Its turning unto another H & M badhing post, I'm out of here.

Before I go I will say the Sussex have far more supporters than you realise.

Man takes woman to safety has the media fed by the R.F as well lie, twist and create vitriol and hate.

If the media was a private person they would be in court and jailed for their continoud hounding of them.

They have done 1 x Oprah, 3 x Netflix talks and Harry one book on their truth. None of you will have read it or looked at it.

Yet I don't see Andrew being dragged into everything. Alot more I could say but I won't waste my energy because I know you haters it will go over the head of.

Incidently they are doing very well for themselves .. but hey let's not let the truth get in the way of anything.

Oh and I know Omid and he is a decent guy

Yes, definitely

Omid Scobie has denied that he us a 'cheerleader' or 'mouthpiece' for Meghan and Harry

Chief sycophant then. Will that do? 😂

* is....for I wish we could edit our posts here!

Omid Scobie has denied that he us a 'cheerleader' or 'mouthpiece' fo Meghan and Harry but that is hard to believe frankly. This will be another book trashing the RF, with what he believes is a very clever title. I shan't read it!

He’ll get a backlash I should imagine. I think H and M have made many look at the RF and think they are ok and not so bad because it is a matter of pride and indignation that someone like Meghan should have the cheek to criticise what she neither understands or respects. Harry and Meaghan ,in a weird way, have made most of us support the British RF in a way we didn’t previously. No one likes people slating their family, especially where lies are promulgated.

Megan dictating to him ?

I was going to say the same thing Calendargirl. Clov sounds very much like Hhmm.

Calendargirl Wed 28-Jun-23 17:51:35

I think ‘Endgame’ sounds a title more suited to how H&M will end up, rather than the rest of the RF.

Crikey, I studied Endgame by Samuel Beckett for my dissertation at university, in French.
The book was about a family on a path to decay and destruction, and if I remember there was a character, Clov, maybe like Charles, who was full of sorrow and pain. The main theme was the family's inability to communicate, parent with child, and to find peace with each other.
For me, the title is no accident, and has parellels, though I'm not sure Scobie, Harry and Meghan know much about 20th century European literature.
Keep writing this trash Scoobie if you must. What you don't realise is that in the end, what you say is all ABSURD anyway. That's the point, no one is taking any notice.

Or just barking tout court

Oreo Wed 28-Jun-23 17:07:21

Yeah, he’s hanging on the Sussexes coat tails and trying to make a buck from a load of old tripe as My Mum would say😄
While the interest is still there, it won’t be for long tho.

Omid Scobie’s latest book, Endgame, is about the royal family’s fight for survival. It’s to be released in November, no doubt in time for the Christmas market.

He clearly wasn’t at the Trooping of the Colour or Royal Ascot, let alone the Coronation itself. I think he’s barking up the wrong tree here 😂
