Watch The Crown you will feel like you know him.
Interesting person extensive military record during WW2
When the Queen passes on the last leader form the 21 century will be gone.

Did he play with George Brett? He is my favorite Royal.
Frank Drebin said it best.
Probably the only show my wife ever made me watch that was actually really good.

These death threads always remind me of one of my favorite sayings:
“There are no atheists in Hell.”

That I really didn't want to watch at first.....probably. Good show, very well done.

After watching it, I would have loved to hang out with a young Princess Margaret.
A very well-written character on the show; the ‘mid-life crisis’ episode was not especially eventful from a plot-driving perspective, but was one of the more emotionally poignant episodes in the series (perhaps hit a little too close to home as I inch closer to middle age myself)
Prince Phillip is one of those guys who had to take a back seat to his wife(not easy to do). He did it with class and represented the Monarchy well. Back in his younger years I always felt that Prince Phillip was just waiting to really say what was on his mind but couldn't because of protocol. RIP Phillip.

He led an interesting life and it was fascinating to learn how he managed to deal with the fact that SHE was in charge and the head of the family...not him. The show has dealt with his character quite well
RIP.
Watching The Crown made me prouder to be an American, though Phillip comes off as one of the more human and relatable characters.
For a laugh from The Onion:

There’s a Hell, MI. I have relatives living not too far from there, and I recall the town did a little celebration for June 6, 2006
I will never understand some Americans’ affection for members of foreign royalty.
He’s a man who died, as does every man, but this one lived longer than most.
I am more interested to hear about some journeyman pitcher from the 50s who died than this guy.
And that’s saying a lot.
Nice man good sense of humor. I was young but he left a nice impression, as I did with the queen.

Sad news. I am concerned about the Royal Family once the Queen passes. Charles is not very popular and an easy target. The sooner William can take the throne, the better.
There was a Netflix (?) show that played out like that...Charles gets tossed in coup that I think was led or hatched by Kate.
You recall the name of the show? I’d watch.
I think William could tap into and ride the popularity of his mother. Would endear him to a broader group. Charles, rightly or wrongly, is considered the villain versus Diana.
