Paxo's royal stuffing.
« on: February 12, 2019, 10:25:59 PM »
Just watched Paxman's second part of his exposee on the royal children - and Paxman was incisive as ever. Both episodes were worth a watch, tonights's especially so. https://www.radiotimes.com/tv-programme/e/hpcsbv/paxman-on-the-queens-children--s1-e2-paxman-on-the-queens-children/
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

Is it actually good or does it just pander to your prejudices?

Well, in the first two sentences of part one, Paxman declared himself, on balance, a monarchist.
Does that answer your question?
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

I missed the second episode, saw the first one which didn't tell us anything much new but was quite good. I'll look for second episode soon.

If anyone wants the 'real thing', watch 'The Crown' on Netflix. So far two series but another one will be broadcast this year. Good stuff and very well cast. Ch5, I'd forgotten what it was on.
