    He said he was planning to be reincarnated as an airborne virus to wipe out humanity.

    He's 98 years old, so of course he's going to die sometime soon.

    Would be terrible if he died before getting his 100th birthday letter from the Queen.

    Petrified, it will be all over the news and we won't hear the end of it.

    I am looking forward to the Crown being released on Netflix this weekend though, should be deadly.

    Wait till the Queen pops her clogs, that's going to be an inordinate amount of British nationalist that will make the rest of us want to pop our clogs too

    I was thinking about this the other day. He is 98 and the Queen is 93. Poor Charles must be wondering if he's ever going to be King. Although I get the impression he doesn't give the faintest either way, he knows its all a sham.

    He's living the life without having to worry about Kingly duties. I'd say he's happy out!

    It must be weird living your whole life preparing to be King, and then you reach 70, do you even give a crap anymore?

    Jesus this will happen when the queen dies

    Its actually unbelievable how much the royal family means to the British people. It's hard to imagine us been the same but little mick is a legend

    I fail to understand the fascination that some folks have for the royals in this day and age. I guess it depends upon your POV. When he dies, the Brits will have a grand pomp and circumstance state funeral that will highly profit hotels, retailers, and telly coverage advertisers.

    My mum is an avid royal fan. She told me that there were always rumours about him and his extra curricular activities. Seemingly Prince Andrew did not lick his leanings off the street.

    He was a regular attendee of the " Thursday Club " , which was a gentleman's club in central London with some hard hitting clientele, from all walks of life I am told. He is rumoured to have had mistresses and there has been finger pointing about him dipping his toes in the Pacific whilst touring there with the Royal Navy when he was just a young whipper snapper, albeit a married to the Queen of England type of guttersnipe.

    In saying all that he is supposed to be great craic altogether. Speaks his mind and is fond of the margaritas, or at least he certainly was. There is the famous story from the white house in the 70's when he went on the piss with the butlers, that is so real, you gotta love it. Can you imagine staying up all night in the kitchens of the white house smoking fags, necking whiskey and brandy and shooting the breeze with the King of England? Mighty stuff altogether.

    He had a tough enough childhood all things considered, he speaks no Greek because he was exiled from there while asleep in a cot. After that his mum developed Schizophrenia, I doubt that was a cakewalk either. All his sisters were married off to Nazi's and he must have been a lonely enough dude. It looks like the British Navy was the making of him.

    In a way he was refreshingly honest.
    Now maybe he was just thick and inconsiderate or maybe he was just fed up of being a lapdog following the queen around so decided to pull the pi**.
    I actually think it was a bit of both.

    Here are some of his major gaffs and funny lines...
    And sometimes he actually does have a point.

    "What do you gargle with, pebbles?" (speaking to singer Tom Jones after the 1969 Royal Variety Performance).

    "I declare this thing open, whatever it is." (on a visit to Canada in 1969).

    "If it has got four legs and it is not a chair, if it has got two wings and it flies but is not an aeroplane, and if it swims and it is not a submarine, the Cantonese will eat it." (at a 1986 World Wildlife Fund meeting).

    "How do you keep the natives off the booze long enough to get them through the test?" (to a driving instructor in Oban, Scotland, during a 1995 walkabout).

    "Deaf? If you are near there, no wonder you are deaf." (to young deaf people in Cardiff, in 1999, referring to a school's steel band).

    "Aren't most of you descended from pirates?" (to a wealthy islander in the Cayman Islands in 1994).

    "The Philippines must be half empty as you're all here running the NHS." (on meeting a Filipino nurse at a Luton hospital in February 2013)

    "I would get arrested if I unzipped that dress." (to 25-year-old council worker Hannah Jackson, who was wearing a dress with a zip running the length of its front, on a Jubilee visit to Bromley, Kent, in May 2012)
    "If it doesn't fart or eat hay, she's not interested." (on the Princess anne)

    I am not allowed discuss …
