I think there is a choice given to the likes of Andrew, Edward etc as to whether their children had titles. M and H were told they be wouldn’t have a choice. But who cares . Bring on the republic .

A bit pointless making Archie a Prince when she’s doing her limited best to destroy the Monarchy.

I wonder if she will be asked why she had such an appalling public pity party in a country where many adults and children go to bed hungry?

No intention of boosting the viewing figures for these ingrates. Titles should be removed and the ones that require parliamentary intervention should be started now.

All finances from the U.K. should cease including Charles contributions. Withdraw all security provided by the U.K. They can get their own once they produce some tv programmes that bring in massive viewing figures as per their contract.

My admiration for Meghan as an actor has risen 100%.
She was either acting when she was a member of the Royal family seeming to love the great occasions and the adulation she received from some, or she is acting now with her tales of suicidal thoughts and how she was treated by the family.
I also believe that William’s children are the only titled GGC .
I could be wrong but can’t be bothered to check that fact.

Zara and Peter Phillips don't have titles... Not sure about the Wessexes.

I simply find it hard to comprehend that H didn't spell out for her before they were married, what is expected if you're a member of the RF. Did she really have no idea?

Apparently, according to the news articles on Microsoft, Megan is annoyed that Archie wasn't made a prince!
I don't think any of the great grandchildren have prince or princess titles, except Will's and Kate's children, being in line.

I won't be watching either.

It's certainly caused controversy, does it really deserve two hours? Many ordinary people lead difficult lives having to cope with all sorts of problems with nowhere near the money and privilege these two enjoy.
To think that all this started when they were asked, "How are you?" when they were visiting a country which suffered much deprivation and poverty isn't lost on us.

Another thread. Is that four now?
No - not interested. Angry that a brilliant series Unforgotten is side lined to make room for it.

I cannot find words to describe how utterly bored I am, with this awful whinging, money grabbing couple.
I’m sure millions will watch it, but at work today, everyone feels much the same as I do.

Know one it’s going to watch it apparently but I it will probably be the first thread on here tomorrow.
I will not be watching it how she can compare herself to Princess Diana is beyond me.

I woud rather watch grass grow.

Sick bucket too !

Sara1954 Mon 08-Mar-21 10:19:35

I have absolutely no interest whatsoever, I’m sick to death of hearing about it.

Oprah Winfrey’s interview with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be broadcast at 9pm on ITV. I’m sure a lot of Grans will be watching as I can see it has garnered a great deal of interest on Gransnet. Oprah Winfrey is an experienced and formidable interviewer. People seem unaware she was a respected journalist before her ‘talk show’ took off and she gives nobody an easy time, though she is always respectful and professional. I shan’t be watching, it has already been shown in the US and the internet is full of it. Racism and snobbery make good TV, apparently.

Popcorn at the ready!
