More Classic Prince Phillip - TVs

[rhinochopig]

Just quoted on the BBC this morning.

Prince P on TVs. "To work out how to operate a television set you practically have to make love to the thing."

""Either that or you had to employ a grandson of age 10 to do it for you.""

Good to see incest is alive and well in the Royal family

Given the way freeview breaks, I suspect he isn't alone

You conclude incest? Perhaps you have something else you want to share with us...

So he pretty much said "Modern televisions are so complicated for an old guy like me, easier to get a kid to operate the thing."

People are too quick to jump on anything he says as another Prince Philip gaffe. Where is the implication of telly-fking or incest? Only in the minds of those who want to see it. It's hardly up there with his best work, is it?

He has raised the gaffe bar pretty high previously.

I'd say we were having to search for the humour in this one where some of his others were brammers.
