No entry sign at the Balmoral gates been taken down. Wonder if thats anything to do with it all.

Those cars that was in Balmoral looked like the vehicle funeral directors use to take bodies away.

The Queen is a special lady. It is going to feel seriously weird when she is no longer around. Always had a little sparkle in her eyes.

Prayers to the Queen x

Nothing against her at all, but it comes to us all.
She was born in 1926.

How weird, I was literally just thinking this had gone all quiet recently.

Popped into the forums here and see this thread is going again.

Father time gets us all eventually

Watching the BBC news, they just took down the no entry sign at the Balmoral gates, that's a little strange.

True but will be taken to Edinburgh

Unlikely - the Prince of Wales will still exist, it will just be William instead of Charles

is the prince/(princess?) of wales always given to the next in line?

i noticed this, i imagine its so that the images at balmoral are clean and clear for when they announce something

Since the 14th Century, yes

How come ITV are on normal programming if something really serious is happening?

Don’t understand the purpose of BBC 1 dropping their programmes til 6pm as 6 o’clock news will be a repeat of what happened. Happens each time when something major occurs. Sometimes the BBC presenters have got little to say. Very awkward imo

Just lol at the rag on the camera on BBC1. Great planning, guys.

Imagine if something like this happened before we had so much media-on-demand. There would be no escape for the next few days

its at 6pm on the day evening following the death that it gets announced.

So could be tonight or tomorow if she last through the night.

Charles III or George VII?

Watching the coverage when Truss was driving through London to no10 was awkward. Trying to come up with something relevant to say for every junction. Made worse by them going the long way

So it's probably pointless my watching this. It'll just be a load of guff for several hours. At least till 6pm.

It was a good job that there wasn’t the social media when Diana died.

All other news gets swept under the carpet.
