    Will this end the Loyalist protests?
    Will they begin the mourning process?
    Methinks not.

    If he made it to the 100 would he have got a cheque off the Queen?

    Debatable how accurate his portrayal is in The Crown but if even half it's true he was some character.

    He was the epitome of everything negative about the British monarchy in a modern society.

    The lad that everyone wanted to have a chat with.

    I just remember his time at Guinness eyeing up that pint and him not allowed to have it.

    Seeing on The Guardian website that an investigation into benefits fraud has been launched, with palace insiders telling The Guardian that Philip's corpse was driven out of hospital months ago.
