He is really best known here for the Blackadder series and is considered somewhat of a national treasure, Stephen Fry was there as well. You might know both of them from Hugh Laurie (Dr. House) who was in Blackadder with both Fry and Atkinson and had a show with Stephen Fry called 'A Little Bit of Fry and Laurie'. Comic geniuses.

I wouldn't be happy if I had to spend time with Philip either.

Yes and he is also one of the most racist and idiotic men alive.
He was a Prince of Greece, back in the day royalty had to marry royalty, it was an arranged marriage of sorts.

I'm surprised at how many replies this thread received, I wanted to create an official thread for this but I figured since ATRL has a bunch of young teens, no one would care.
I actually enjoyed the wedding. But the person we really need thank for this wedding is Princess Diana because if it wasn't for her, there would have been no William and Kate wedding. At the end of the day, it's all about Diana. That is why this wedding was huge since William is her son and her wedding was huge in the 80's. No one really cares for Charles and his family. When Charles and Camilla got married was it on TV around the world?

Of course William and Harry are very well liked, and there's the Diana factor, but the Royal Family as a whole is still very well liked in the UK. About a million people showed up in London for the wedding. The same numbers turned out in 2002 for the Queen's Golden Jubilee and I bet we will see the same for the Diamond next year. The public wouldn't want to keep the Royal Family based on 14 year old hype from Diana.
Charles' wedding wasn't a state occasion, it was a civil ceremony in a registry office and finished in about an hour?

I see there’s a lot of people asking if Kate Middleton will be the new Queen. I say there’s no chance. Queen had a string of huge hits in the 70’s and 80’s and Kate has very little experience in the music industry.

I think it had more to do with the fact that it was his second wedding that it was a smaller occasion. Even in modern days, divorce is still a very taboo subject for the church of England, and spilling this marriage over the world would just have been a big reminder of his divorce with Diana.

Why did Harry say "wait 'til you see her" ? Who is her?
Also, the Queen's marriage to Prince Philip was NOT arranged. Yes they are related, but in honesty they are ALL related: Charles, Camilla, Diana, Sarah Ferguson are all distant cousins. The Queen fell in love with Philip when she was still "just" a princess, when she was 13, and corresponded with him for years until they finally got married. His views and way of being is nothing too foreign when compared to the average British person his age. (He's like 90 nowadays)

First off Camilla may be ugly, but Diana wasn't hot. I don't care if she's dead, the facts remain the facts, she wasn't hot.
Harry is the only HOT member of the royal family. Kate is plain and forgettable, so is William.
Stop hyping them up like they've done something actually important in their life. They're just lucky enugh to be born in the right family.
They all are useless and I can't wait until we get rid of them and all the world royal families. I mean the Windsor live this fab life thanks to the "commoners" who pay taxes. They don't even work. This is ridiculous. Welfare royal family.

LMAO the delusion! from start to finish.
Diana, one of the most iconic fashion divasss of our generation, wasn't hot, but her fugly ass son Prince Harry, with his stick out ears and incurable rosacea, IS?!
Kate is plain and forgettable LMFAO.
