I doubt there are many fans of the show here, but it's a worth a watch.
Seconded - needless to say the couple didn't see the funny side and were going to sue, but decided against it.

(whilst on the subject, the Heather Swanson / Strong Woman episode is also very accurate / hilarious).

I suggest you watch his latest Netlifx effort. I never thought it would be possible for a veteran to be a Walt. But he has managed it.

Self-pity allied with below-average intelligence and a towering sense of entitlement is an unpleasant combination.

There was a really interesting piece on the BBC the other day. King Charles had asked the Windrush Commemoration Committee( in this case,Baroness Floella Benjamin, the Right Reverend Rose Hudson-Wilkin, Mr Rudolph Walker and Ms Paulette Simpson) to select 12 artists and 12 people who arrived on The Windrush to produce portraits that would be placed in The Royal Collection at Buckingham Palace.
Artists and 'Sitters' with their extended families attended the event at the palace where the paintings were revealed to all including The King and Camilla who spoke in turn with those there.

Just a little balance to Mr and Mrs Harry and their relentless bollox.

Harry is just another celeb now that needs to stay in the public eye in order to stay relevant, so expect nauseating **** like this to continue indefinitely.

The best thing to do is ignore it.

Harry whoring himself around doesn’t do himself any favours does he.
They do have a terribly white Royal balcony though.

The Netflix documentary is about the injured veterans who are appearing at the forthcoming Invictus games, but we shouldn't let context get in the way.

It's only context if you know it. I read netflix and royal family, that's two big turnoffs for me.

I do wonder what the actual invictus organisers now think about having him involved with their games.

Must regret getting him involved, surely.

Probably grateful his involvement got the project off the ground in the first place.

True. They do say any publicity is good publicity.

I did hear that this was a typical royal organisational thing, basically he was just the face of the event, but it was sorted by others

According to one of my bosses, Charles is a racist who doesn't like Harry because he married an "African American Woman".

So the Windrush story can't be true.
