Monday - will you watch....and why?

What's the point of watching this childish couple who apparently crave privacy yet constantly parade themselves for the benefit of the press they allegedly hate. He thinks we still see the child walking behind the funeral procession, what I see is a very spoilt and entitled man who needs to grow up and get on with life. They have nothing to say that hasn't already been said by others. I don't like be preached at and this couple do a lot of preaching but don't lead by example. So no I won't be watching as I find them irrelevant and pointless.

Casdon if you’d rather watch Masterchef that says it all!

I don’t think I can bear to watch that smug smile on Markle’s face.

I don’t really want to add to the viewing figures. It will be all over the news on Monday and I’ll read what is said on here on Tuesday. Let them have their say then go away, enjoy their house and children and make their millions from the Netflix programmes they are supposed to be making.

I think it's shocking.
If you have to justify your reasons for leaving why does it have to be at the expense of others.? It's cowardly and vindictive to run the Royal Family down like this.
A guilty conscience makes you do things like this.

Bullying my eye. I'm sure that anyone who joins the household is guided into their positions, but Markle obviously/ conveniently saw it as bullying because she's used to taking centre stage---aw diddums.

The RF are powerless to fight back. It's disgusting !

I'm not against anyone doing what they want to do in life, no matter who it is, but for God's sake be honest about it and don't start up a blame game if/ when things aren't what you expected. They're rubbish.

No

No. They are boring.

Totally agree with you EV.

I think they are lashing out and will regret this. Far better to keep your dignity and just get on with your chosen path.

I’m not sure whether I’ll watch it or not. I’m another who’d be watching ‘The Unforgotten’ if it hasn’t been shunted off the channel to make room!

2 hours is way too long anyway. I think I’m leaning towards ignoring it tomorrow, then watching it on ITV Hub so I can fast forward all the (bound to be prolific high income generating) adverts!

I wont be watching it. It's too close to home and has already been stirring up some very unpleasant memories and emotions from our own estrangement from our son that happened more than 8 years ago.

Excellent post EllanVannin. The first and last paragraphs sum up perfectly how our ES has behaved.

? for you Smileless this must be churning up a lot of unpleasant memories and emotions. I wonder if your estranged son & his partner will be watching? It might prick their consciences you never know and make it uncomfortable viewing for them, deep down.

In theory I don't want to watch it. But I'm very weak willed and know darn well that I will watch it in spite of myself.
Sheer curiosity I suppose. Can't resist.

I’ve just set the TV to record it. It says it’s on at 8pm in my TV guide but on the guide on the tv it’s 9??‍♀️.
Without the adverts it should be quite a bit shorter I think.

I feel that for someone who is so woke it does seems odd that Megan (with Harry) seems to be so hell bent on spreading discord? Perhaps she won’t? I feel I have to watch it myself, as others have said, to make up my own mind.

Don't know. I've gathered from this thread that Unforgotten has been shifted. As I would have been watching that I am now undecided, depends what else I can find.

I don’t think I’ll be watching as I’ve never intended to, but there is the point in the OP that if you watch you see it first hand for yourself. The trouble is that it’ll be boring, and probably annoying. No, I think I’ll see enough of it the next day to make my mind up.

I agree with EllanVallen good post Ellan.

Two hours is far too long anyway.

P H is making the same mistake as his mother did.
And that backfired big time.

I think if he were to watch it, watching him watch it could well be more interesting Urmstongran. Thank you for the flowers.

I will be watching, but fully expect it to be as cringeworthy as Diana's, Charles' and Andrew's previous interviews - presumably which were broadcast to 'put the record straight' and get the public on side; whereas in actual fact they had the reverse effect and were just plain embarrassing. Pity none of them listened to advice - never
complain, never explain, don't wash your dirty linen in public etc, etc.

I really do think if H & M expect that this interview will make them more popular and gain the public's approval, they are sadly misguided. Far better to have gone quietly, keep away from publicity and out of the limelight, all the while carrying out their philanthropic and charitable deeds without any public fanfare. Now that would be something to admire them for ?

Probably will watch and will try to block out the tutting from the DH corner.

It is already a circus.

Harry carries s lot of anger.
But what I find strange is that he is very vocal about losing his mother at a young age, but does not seem to be concerned that his own children will have 2 parents full stop!

As pointed out himself, Meghan apparently has no family of her own

Harry is prepared to publically drop his family on front of whole world for his 30 pieces of silver.

Interviews in a few years?
Archie or sibling talking about the extended family that they never had?

Depending of course on how far madam is prepared to go, isn’t there going to be a small part of Harry which will feel very uncomfortable hearing his family torn apart by his wife?
Even if assuming he was as much up for the move as she was, could this be the moment when the scales fall from his eyes and he sees her for the manipulative woman we all know her to be?

Can he not see that not only has she completely cut off her entire family apart from her mother, but that she is attempting to do exactly the same with Harry and his?

I am not sure if I will watch it. They are out for revenge and it won't end well particularly for Harry.

I will not be watching it, prefer to watch paint dry instead.

Yes, JenniferEccles, that's why my guess is Harry will keep out of the way for the RFamily bashing bit, then enter stage left for the press/racism scene. Maybe Archie comes on for the curtain call?

I suppose it depends if you enjoy soap operas.

If you do this has all the ingredients to make a block buster, family at war, sexual perversions, profligacy, misogyny, racism, lies, secrecy, glamorous people, power, political intrigue, palace intrigue, a child that was mentally injured by losing his mother, trolling, massive profits for the media resulting from the interview, US and U.K. rivalry, on and on.

So I would highly recommend it to those who love soap operas of this nature, otherwise I recommend a good book. I can give you some titles if you are interested???

I shall not watch it.
Poor taste, deeply insincere and made to upset others.
Surprised at how angry it has made me.

I'm not going to watch. I have a feeling that any salient features will be unavoidable over the next day or two. Hopefully the couple will then be able to have the obscurity they wish. Or maybe not!

I agree maddyone two hours is much too long. Expect OW will be going all round the houses (round the Wrekin) and be terribly sycophantic. I will record it and watch bits of it so I can give an honest opinion. My husband said he would rather stick pins in his eyes.
