Grim Up North 3,726 Posted June 22, 2017 I'm really struggling for an explanation here but I'm going to throw some wild suggestion out there. Photo Now - he's just been in hospital because he has had an infection = one would expect one to look a bit shit. Photo Just Recently - he's out and about and doesn't have an infection = one would not expect one to look shit. I do accept however that he is 96, he probably has something wrong with his prostate (as most 96 year old men do) and possibly this is causing frequent bladder infections or similar conditions and he will die in the next 5 years. I find it hard to be sad about a 96 year old man who might die soon after having led a life of exquisite luxury. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ObakeFilter 905 Posted June 23, 2017 There are a few photos here, I dunno, maybe it's one of those "bad lighting bad camera angle etc. etc." we saw before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,476 Posted June 24, 2017 It's no Curse of Fenric: vampires, WW2, poison gas, Norse mythology, Nicholas Parsons, and much of the plot nicked from The Fog. Great stuff. All of which is on topic for Prince Philip, of course. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe, just maybe, hear me out, think about this.... Philip had retired from public duties to take on the role of the new Doctor Who!

Well, either that or there's nowt wrong with him that can't be cured by presenting him with a couple of lively young lasses. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilyForrester 81 Posted June 25, 2017 The Mirror is reporting Harry is to wed his girlfriend soon as he wants to make sure Philip lives to see his wedding. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/prince-harry-to-give-meghan-10684164 Certainly looks like there's cause for concern about the Duke. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fergie86 376 Posted June 25, 2017 Still think that Prince Philip will live for another two or three years as he has a life of luxury especially now he is retiring and he will receive the best medical care at the click of his fingers. Also he has reached 96 and despite his lifestyle and luxury you have to be stubborn and have fight in you to reach that age and I think he still has some fight in him yet.

Sudden death is always possible at 85+ without it surprising anyone, even when you're rich and famous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
