I hope it’s not true with everything that’s going on with Prince Andrew. Anyone else heard this?

I never really thought I had any strong views on the Queen, but I felt really quite upset at the thought of her death. Glad it has t happened yet.

SpiderCharlotte · 02/12/2019 20:08

@NigellaAwesome I know what you mean, I felt the same. I think a lot of people will too when the time comes.

AnneTwackie · 02/12/2019 20:19

@AdobeWanKenobi I have apologised and said I was just explaining where I heard it in the first place. No harm done, I’m sure the queen is fine with it, correct me if I’m wrong Liz. It’s not like I said anyone has a big mouth, a small Brian and used a stupid nonsensical meme Grin

I'm way more gutted at the memory or Terry Pratchett dying than the thought of the Queen dying.

But nonetheless, it wouldn't be welcomed news.

I'm glad she's not kicking up the daisies.

draughtycatflap I might be a bit in love with you for It must be true because I heard that Elton John has been spotted boarding a private jet for London with a huge croque en bouche

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 02/12/2019 20:47

Yes OP, please don’t go around accusing people of having a small Brian. Very unfair. Grin

blablablabla123 · 02/12/2019 20:47

Given the prime minister would be one of the first to know of the queens death and knowing who he is and how many mumsnetters feel about him, I am amazed to find he is a bigamist and that so many of his wives were happy to contribute to this thread.

minesagin37 · 02/12/2019 20:49

I thought she had died a while ago. No wait...

PotteryWheel · 02/12/2019 20:53

You’re thinking of Freddie Mercury, @minesagin37. Or Prince? Grin

minesagin37 · 02/12/2019 20:55

Yes that was it. Yes sorry. Got muddled up then. 😁

My husband IS the Queen and I haven’t heard anything so it’s definitely not true.

pelirocco123 · 02/12/2019 21:30

Considering the funeral would be at least a week after the death , it is slightly worrying that members of the armed forces would need so much notice to find a pair of socks

peridito · 02/12/2019 21:43

21 pages on the Queen ( not ) being dead !

Genvonklinkerhoffen · 02/12/2019 22:07

@pelirocco123 lying in state takes some time. Then there's the rehearsals. Not to mention getting her back from Sandringham. That doesn't happen by accident.

I'm the Queen and so is my wife!

StealthPolarBear · 03/12/2019 06:20

Lol at Boris and his many wives. Though I wouldn't be surprised to find out he was a bigamist at all.

What happens when Prince Phillip dies?

What happens when Prince Phillip dies?

Well if he's been good he goes to heaven... Grin

PaulHollywoodsleftbollockhair · 05/12/2019 22:34

Grin.

DH asked if we get a bank holiday.....

ShippingNews · 06/12/2019 04:02

Op was just wondering if what she'd heard was correct, we all speculate sometimes surely?

Not really. The death of someone like her, of world - wide importance , would not be something to speculate about or to ask for opinions about on mn. It would be major news on all media, all over the world within minutes. Nobody would have to speculate !

ShippingNews · 06/12/2019 04:09

What happens when Prince Phillip dies

No different from any other member of the RF. State funeral, RF wearing mourning clothes, lots of documentaries about him on TV. His death won't affect the succession or any other aspect of the monarchy.

JolieOBrien · 06/12/2019 04:42

Not this again ... I actually thought it was a hoax when I heard Princess Diana had died but unfortunately it wasn't.

I think the BBC will make the announcement if the Queen dies they have been practicing what to do for years and have even have a dress code for the news reader to wear.
