    RIP. A very good innings but a shame his last year was such a shitty one for his family. 

    Wouldn't be surprised to see the Queen step back now.
    Wouldn't be surprised if she died fairly soon, often the case with very old couples.
    I worry about this too. Old hearts can only take so much 😔

    RIP - both he and the Queen have put a proper shift in in their later years when it has come to public appointments etc.  Thoughts and prayers with the Royal Family

    I doubt the Queen will step back, she'll go on til the bitter end, and I hope she does too, getting to 70 years on the throne

    I had an idea this news was on its way.
    He did his duty most admirably, made a few politically incorrect gaffs along the way but for a man of his age and with the ever changing ideas in political correctness that was bound to happen.

    RIP......Old Chap.....RIP.

    Did the Duke of Edinburgh Award as a schoolboy in about 1967.
    Another seemingly permanent fixture passes on.
    RIP, and I hope the Queen can cope and carry on for many years.

     He was the King of Greece and Denmark (strange pairing) Seems his mum Princess Alice was the great grand daughter of Queen Victoria.

    Phillip was always my answer to the "who would you most like to have dinner with" question. Like most of his generation, a lifetime of experience, duty and change. RIP.

    Not quite...He was associated with both countries by lineage...

    RIP. A man who was all about service, in a family who seem to be in the news recently because they expect everyone to serve them.

    not surprising, most royal european families are linked to her in some way. In ww1, the king of england, the kaiser of germany and the tsar of russia were all cousins.
