The Royals

Say if the worst was to happen to the queen would the national anthem change to god save our gracious king.

^ it was originally written as God Save the King.

Whether Charles is “gracious” or not is open to debate.

Main change will probably is that Charlie boy will probably be known as George the VII

The Buckingham Palace correspondant says they is nothing imminent with the Queen's condition.

However Hugh Edwards on the BBC is wearing a black tie in readiness.

I think it's quite ghoulish for the BBC to have a camera on the gates of Balmoral all afternoon as if wanting to be the first to announce the Querns demise. In the old days David Dimbleby would present thus sort of story, but now we have the simpering tones of Huw Edward's and in the words of prince Charles
" that awful man " Nicolas Whitchell.

'Long live the King.'
Charles is returning to London tomorrow. He's going to be King CharlesIII

How will the period of national mourning take place?

^ After a couple of days in Scotland her body will be moved to London. There's going to be 4 days where she'll be resting in state. I believe in Westminster Abbey.

He will be known and King Charles III

And you can't cal him Charlie boy any more!!!

It's non stop coverage about the death of the Queen on most of the TV channels. Including a lot of the overseas channels.

Of the ones still working to schedule (Dave, ITV2 etc) there are regular prompts to turn to the news channels.
