He is coming across significantly less mental than I expected to be honest.

Fiona Bruce, but still... biggrin

If he ever did Cage Fighting, his entry music should be The Super Furry Animals' "The Man Don't Give A fk".

Shush, I edited it already smile

Just loved the "Im not a bunny hugger" section and the look of horror and contempt he gave Bruce smile

This bit about the comments is comedy gold.

It's obvious that with what he's done around the world he's not racist, he just has an amazingly dry and very inappropriate sense of humour

I don't think he can be racist if he has ripped the piss out of every single race, creed, colour and religion in the world. I doubt he's far off that. smile

He's a one-off.

That could be a compliment.

He seems...humble. Which is pretty impressive.

Loved that documentary, didn't know half the stuff I have just learnt. Must admit I'm surprised more people haven't seen it/commented on it.

Must admit Im completely biased when it comes to Phil, Ive met him a few times for various reasons and I think he is an absolutely top bloke. Class lad.

If I am even half as alive as he is when I hit 90 then that would be a good result!

I like Phil and find his comments hilarious.

In that brief bit of telly I thought he appeared to have a lack of empathy (which I found funny) but his relationships with members of his family and indeed his marriage sounded more like a series of arrangements and duties rather than having any warmth (apart from towards Wills at his mums funeral).

I found it interesting but came away thinking he was even odder than I imagined him to be. hehe

Royal Naval bit in particular. Graduated Dartmouth top of his class, He started as a midshipman (none of the perks of being a British royal at the time), was mentioned in dispatches, and worked his way up to command HMS Magpie after the war.

Had he not married the Queen he would have gone far in the Navy.
