[TV] Who's not watching the King's speech?

[talk2knighty]

In 53 years I’ve never watched the “Queens Speech” as this will be his first I will probably record to watch later.

 

[thejackal]

Having never watched The Queen's Speech I am not going to change the habit of a lifetime now that there's a King.

Yes there's definitely an option missing!

 

[BN9 BHA]

If I was at home I wouldn’t bother to put it on, I will be at a relative’s house on Christmas Day so I won’t be in charge of the tv, if they watch it I won’t leave the room.

Voted for the film btw

 

[jcdenton08]

Absolutely. God save the King

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

Seen it...

Colin Firth was very good

George seemed like a sound bloke, why did we ever get rid of him?

 

[Badger Boy]

I have seen the film multiple times and I really enjoy it, but in all seriousness - watching the Queen's speech at Christmas used to be something mandated by my mum but now it's a tradition. I always watched it, never remembered any of it and we'll see how the King gets on. Difficult year for him and his family, whatever you think of the Monarchy, so we'll see what he has to tell us.

 

[Swansman]

Absolutely. God save the King

You said that about the Queen as well and look how that turned out...

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

I'm sure she's sat on a cloud somewhere being well looked after, with all the other lizards.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Never watched the Queen's speech and, therefore, won't watch the King's one.

I honestly couldn't give a shit what he has to say.

 

[portlock seagull]

Don’t you mean he was very ‘ggggg ggg gggood?

 

[Brok]

I would have loved to have watched it, but unfortunately it clashes right in the middle of drinking beer and enjoying myself.

Never mind, maybe next year.

 

[Solid at the back]

Where's the "couldn't give a toss about the Royal Family, they are a waste of time and only weirdos give a shit about them" option?

 

[zefarelly]

HRH never had the vocal delivery to make it sound remotely convincing that it came from her own mind and not that of a team of writers. Autocue pantomime, and an insult to the intelligence of those who choose to lap it up.

The last sentence, I've got a stitch

If I happen to be near a TV with nothing better to do I usually listen in, better to be informed than a critical ignoramus Shirley?

Obviously I won't admit to standing to attention whilst draped in a union jack wearing a hat folded from finest Sun front pages of the Queens funeral.

 

[Motogull]

If he wears a grey wig and a skirt and puts make up on I'll watch.

 

[birthofanorange]

It's been nothing that I've ever watched, (yes, yes, I'm referring to Queenie's one) so I won't be watching this one, either.
Still, hope it goes well for him.

We will put you down as a maybe

 

[Normal Rob]

Not a fan of the Royal family. I've not watched a single speech ever and certainly won't start now.

 

[BadFish]

Is it on Netflix?

I am hoping Hazza and Megs are doing one on Netflix.

 

[The Clamp]

I have zero interest in what an over-privileged, unelected, toffee nosed buffoon has to say about the state of the nation or the year it’s had.

He has never known hunger or financial stress and barely done a days work in his life. A life I might add, that we pay for.

So as far as I’m concerned he and the rest of his sponging, good for nothing, layabout family can shove it up their arses and f*** off whilst they’re doing it.

 

[Randy McNob]

I am hoping Hazza and Megs are doing one on Netflix.

Meghan Markle is my hero of the year and would tune in. The way she has riled the tossers on the right way beyond obsession is the work of genius. Farage, Piers Morgan, Clarkson all throthing and tweeting every 5 mins about her, I would love hold so much power over people. We will have a toast and 3 cheers for Meghan and Harry at our dinner table
