Sentebale no. 3

[Thedom]

The ex lead Patron Its getting plenty of media coverage today.

(ps, my hash key doesn't work )

She did indeed. It was probably to spare the others the additional stress.

Oh I don't know, she might actually have requested that gig 😄
Edited to add - and was probably provided with a Taser.

Years ago I was on a message board that had an animated vomiting emoji - I think we need that here!

The latest script seems to be heavy on the " let's wait and see" and " two sides to every story" message. And if you insist on carrying on the discussion - "bullies".

What ! What! I am not tall so maybe he is tall enough though. Oh back in the day those eyes and the little smile. I am truly envious.

The irony of Omid Scobie claiming that Princess Catherine is infantilised, when in fact it is, and always has been (Haz-been!) Harry.

Isn't Kelello Lerotholi the cousin of Prince Seeiso who rarely attended any board meetings?

Talking of whom...Omid Scobie has gone very quiet of late.

He has hasn’t he?

In my complete doziness I was on the other thread wondering where everyone was. Then saw the news story about the "imperious" message and wondered why it was still so quiet. Then realised that I'd got the 1000th post and there was a new thread 😂

I see that double standards, both sides of the story and touring the newsrooms have been added to the script. It really must be very inconvenient to have to keep sidestepping the fact that SC only spoke out in response to Harry starting all of this. Talk about an own goal.

I haven't seen the Gyles & Camilla segment, but based on what I've read, it wouldn't surprise me if Gyles was doing some defending because KC3 is concerned about the absolute pasting PH is getting. When your youngest is neck deep in manure it must be difficult to stand by and not try and help them even a little, despite the fact that they jumped in feet first.

ITV coverage about H&M is always dire. GMB this morning is a case in point. I used to like Susannah Reid but she's insufferable in her determination to defend the Sussexes.

That's a good point. Except I don't think Harry is capable of leaving a situation alone if he thinks he can cast himself as the innocent victim. He seems obsessed with getting completely positive press whilst doing things like this that open him up to criticism. It's mad.

It's also interesting that criticism isn't limited to this country. It's almost as if he has shown people who he is and they believe it.

The As Ever launch reminds me so much of Cherry Menlove (remember her?). Desperately trying to connect and find a USP, but not quite getting it right. Trying to be relatable and coming across as insincere and gushy.

I've read on a previous thread that one of the DoS' challenges is that she's been so many things in just a few short years. Feminist, ground-breaking pioneer, content creator, philanthropist investor, and now home-making guru with a hefty dollop of tradwife. It's really inconsistent.

I did meet David Essex ... at the dentist!

Yes he had the most beautiful eyes ... when he said hello to me in the dentist waiting room ....

@Weepixieno idea about bots, but i would say that the “machine” would employ a number of wannabe PRs of a youngish age to cover various influential sites - esp the ones like MN where threads are often cited by journos. It’s easy money - couple of hundred quid a day and the objective to counter negative opinion. Or as per below just talk shit making it less appealing to genuine posters to weigh in. It’s all part of an overall strategy except its utter nonsense and does very little to change anything because public sentiment is so skewed against them: and the best advice is for them tO STFU and have some humility in the wake of the carnage they left.

That's been since he named Charles and Catherine as the "royal racists" in the Dutch edition of Endgame, and naturally tried to claim it was someone else's "mistake"

I've said this before, but will always believe it was a step too far and that the RF brought in the big gun lawyers to frighten him sh1tless

It’s no different than influencing media outlets to side with them. It’s just a different target at grassroots. Once you’re aware of this you can see it a mile off.

I'm seeing a lot of "let's wait and see" and "it was just a spat over a photo why is SC being difficult taking it so seriously".

I think she should stop playing roles. If she was authentic, it would be fine.
Obviously, she's no great cook, bit I think she probably enjoys being a hostess, so this show seems right for her. If she just dials it down a bit, has some interesting guests, it could be ok.
Will it make her very rich? Unlikely, but it could be the most successful she's been.

Also the poster yesterday called something with lips in the names - were they real or were they a robot kind of thing set on a loop?

I've been wishing for an Ignore button.

I remember thinking that about Sophie at the time. (Sophie Wessex as was, that is, as there's more than one Sophie on the thread.) I daresay they thought she could be relied on to keep calm whatever rudeness and provocation was offered and not provide anything which could be spun negatively.

Oh dear the photo that they have snipped from the GP video is not the most flattering of MM
