    Yeah, his take is like mine on steroids.

    I think where I end up is that what the couple wants is for the royal family to resume financing them. Or else.

    It's got all the trappings of a shakedown to avoid bad publicity - unnamed villains (not the royal family though, we haven't started trashing them much - yet), insensitivity to rather incredible mental health issues and racism.

      Favorability toward the monarchy is the thing to watch. So far it is pretty overwhelmingly positive- pre Oprah.

        The queen seems like a nice girl, but I don't follow the royals very much.

        But somehow I knew about the Oprah interview

        They have failed to avoid the limelight

          Piers Morgan was scathing in his take on the interview.

          Until I read that I was pretty anti-H&M.

          If they gave out medals for being a complete twat, Piers would have a Victoria Cross.

            Incidentally, here's some pictures of people that Piers did like...

            alt text

            All of them, except for Ghislaine Maxwell, went to prison for sex offences. Three of them for sex offences with children.

            So fuck Piers Morgan and his prognostications. Sorry, pontifications. Prognostications would mean he could see into the future, which you've really got to assume that he can't, based on those pics.

              A great judge of character did the interview:

              alt text

              Which goes to show that you can find a photo of almost any celebrity with almost any reprehensible person.

              The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                    Piers is a former gutter journalist, who worked for a number of British tabloids. Some might say that he's actually the reprehensible person in those photos.

                    I don't often praise Jeremy Clarkson, however the only criticism here is that he didn't hit him hard enough.

                            He was editor of the News of the World, quite possibly the sleaziest tabloid in Britain, which is really going some. A newspaper that was eventually closed down after the phone hacking scandal. One of the people whose phone was hacked was a murdered schoolgirl.

                            He wasn't editor at that point, but it gives you an idea.

                            I wouldn't be too sure whether he's particularly anti-gun. He knew it would get him publicity when he had a show in the US.

                            Now, he hosts a breakfast TV show in the UK. He's basically a professional cunt - as in, he says lots of controversial things which get him airtime and publicity.

                            Oh, and Jeremy Clarkson punched him in the face at a party.
