On this day in 1923 Princess Helena of the United Kingdom, third daughter and fifth child of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, died aged 77 in Pall Mall London . Princess Helena was born in Buckingham Palace on the 25th May 1846.She spent all of her life living in the UK despite marrying a foreign Prince because Queen Victoria liked to have most of her daughters living nearby and often stipulated that as a condition when marriage proposals for her daughters were in the offing. As a young woman Helena had a brief flirtation with her father Prince Alberts German librarian who was promptly dismissed from his job when the Queen found out and earnt her lifetime enmity and hostility as a result. She went on to marry a Danish born minor German prince - Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein. This was a marriage that caused splits and controversy within the royal family and among some of the european royal houses. Essentially Prince Christian was a Prince of a realm that had a bitter and contested territorial history between Prussia and Denmark and some saw marrying into that family as taking sides or making a stance one way or the other. It was certainly particularly awkward that her sister in law and future Queen of the United Kingdom was Princess Alexandra of Denmark- Helenas marriage being something she never really accepted or reconciled herself too. However as more or less a middle daughter , despite Queen Victorias best efforts to find her daughter a suitable husband, it became apparent that Princess Helen was extremely unlikely to marry into a major european royal family and form a powerful alliance - so the union with minor Prince Christian was permitted. Helena was it could be argued the Princess Anne of her era, she was the busiest and most active member of the royal family year after year with numerous public engagements and charity patronages. One of her best achievements being one of the founding members of the British Red Cross, founding President of the Royal school of needlework and nursing- something she took a very passionate and special interest in ,lead her to become a President of the Royal British Nurses association. In this role she became a keen supporter of nurse registration ,something surprisingly that Florence Nightingale advised against. After her father Prince Albert died Helena ,along with some of her royal siblings, moved with their mother Queen Victoria to Osborne house on the Isle of Wight. Her sister Princess Alice was Queen Victorias unofficial secretary but needed support in the role but Helena, who Queen Victoria regarded unreliable because she was too emotional and prone to bursting into tears, was overlooked initially as someone who could provide this support . But after Alice married and her priorities changed , Helena became what many regarded as her mother's crutch and main support in latter years despite her being far from her mothers favourite or first choice. Personality wise they would clash often for example because Queen Victoria disapproved of Helenas support for womens rights. After her mother Queen Victoria died Helena still performed royal duties but far fewer as her brother King Edward Vll was not close to most of his siblings and his wife Princess Alexandra had never taken to Helena after her controversial choice of husband.Indeed for a time Helena devoted some time to actual nursing once her brother ascended the throne. Helena had six children, two died in infancy and her reportedly favourite son died of enteric fever after contracting malaria in South Africa while fighting in the second boer war in his thirties. She spent her final years living in Pall Mall and is a great aunt to the current monarch Queen Elizabeth who was born just under three years after Princess Helena died.

Reet gang, I'm seeing no challenger to Drol's achievement, feel free to pile in with congratulations and - assuming - no cooling corpse is discovered to spoil the fun by lunchtime tomorrow I'll negotiate a prize with Drol and we can mark off the un-prized podium places then allow the thread to die a natural death, or summat.

Former US sprinter Tommie Smith is 78 today. He won gold in the 1968 Olympic 200 metres - with the first official sub 20second time - and sparked controversy by displaying a Black Power salute atop the medal podium, with bronze medallist John Carlos (who incidentally was 77 yesterday). This lead to both men being being suspended from the team (on the orders of IOC President Avery Brundage; the USOC initially refused but capitulated when the whole track team was threatened with expulsion).

She’s an epic bullshitter/attention seeker so I would take anything she says with a pinch of salt. If it was terminal though, we’d know because she’d be screaming about it and the Daily Record (or the “Daily Janey” as it should be known given their obsessive coverage of her) would do a 6 page spread on it.

CHER, the legend is 76 today
