HRH Prince Charles and his boys were being interviewed by the BBC. The super-sensitive microphones picked up his comments to the boys while they were being interviewed on the ski slopes in Klosters. We all heard his words as clear as day as they were broadcast around the world.
Here's the transcript. Or you can visit the BBC site and watch the video:
>>>>>As the three princes posed, a photographer said: "Look like you know each other".
Prince Charles:"Do I put my arms around you?"
Prince William: "No, don't but you can take the horrible glasses away."
Charles: "Do not be rude about my glasses, I couldn't bear it if you were."
Charles: "What do we do?"
William: "Keep smiling, keep smiling."
BBC reporter Nicholas Witchell asked how the princes were feeling about the wedding.
William: "[I'm] very happy, very pleased. It will be a good day."
Witchell repeated his question for Prince Charles.
Charles: "Well it's a nice thought. I am very glad you have heard of it anyway."
The three princes then chuckled among themselves.
Charles (under his breath) "These bloody people. I can't bear that man. I mean, he's so awful, he really is."
William, responding to a further question about the wedding: "So long as I don't lose the ring, it will be all right. My one responsibility. I'm bound to get something wrong."
Reporter: "As this is your last holiday together before the wedding, I was wondering, William and Harry, if you were planning any kind of appropriate send-off for your father?"
Prince Harry: "It's been and done."
William: "You've missed it. It was good fun."
Reporter: "He wasn't chained to anything?"
William: (laughing) No.
Charles: "What makes him think that?"
William was asked about photos published in British tabloids of him with his girlfriend Kate Middleton.
William: "I haven't seen any of it. I'm just gagging to be on the slopes. Simple as that."<<<<<<
That's it. Poor Nicholas Witchell.
Englishman.
