I'm glad that you didn't have Tessa on. I wouldn't have carried on watching if she was on with you. Whenever you have her on, from now on I will be turning off.
So rude and full of herself. You gives me anxiety just watching her. The panel today are calm, measured and respectful to eachother. Why does PC keep having her back, is she under contract ?
SAME HERE. If TD is on the show, we'll stay away in droves. Up to you, of course, but there must be SOMEONE anti Royal Family you could have on besides THAT psycho-bee-itch.
Being the *SPARE* is something haznoballz can only ASPIRE to. He is SUCH a HAZZ BEEN!. The title of the book should be *SIMP, SLACKER, or SIDELINED.* Diana's SIMPLETON has no business stepping foot in the UK ever again.
Rebecca… Charles needs to give Edward the Dukedom that was promised to him…sooner rather than later. Charles gave William the prince of Wales title immediately on his accession. Why is he waiting?
Thanks for the heads up about Tessa Dunlop appearing on the show. I will be giving it a miss. She is defensive, domineering, has an aversion to facts if they don’t suit her, and talks over other people. Very rude.
She just made a total fool of herself screaming hysterically at the ultra calm Tom Bower. She has also revealed she met her husband when he was 12 and she was 19. She's revolting and I will not watch ANY show in which she appears.
I'm in the states and don't really know these shows but I came across that Tessa yesterday. I was like omg! Who is that maniac. No thanks. Turned it right off.
I personally think that he didn’t have any negative connotations before he got married, much the same as he didn’t realise he was trapped until his wife told him he was!
You are aware that Harry has wanted out of the working family for years right? His wife becoming suicidal due to tabloid bullying and the lack of family support as Harry saw it made the step-back from senior working royal status easier. Meghan has said that “… it didn’t have to be this way” and I believe her. William and Charles have the UK, CW stage to themselves but have lost their royal scapegoat.
that's abuse (manipulation) did. it started since they were dating with the victim narrative that she is like diana, not let him meet her family to keep him in blind for anything about her ( and only had a version that she told him) and the final straw isolated him from his closed friends and make him believe he only has her. it is them against the world.
I just can bear to watch her Woke, overbearing, nasty performances. She is a real Harpy. Please don't allow her on the show. She just ruins anything she does. 😡
Tessa is so cringe. Can't stand that weird-o. But like her idol MeMeMeGain, Tessa THRIVES on people disliking her. Why Palace Confidential would give that creature the time of day is beyond me. I'll pass on that show too.
@@eileenbytheway3684 I agree! The woman is insufferable!! no matter what panel she appears on, other guests don’t stand a chance to get a word in edgewise. And her high-falooting mannerisms…don’t get me started!
I could be wrong, but didn’t Diana dismiss her royal protection officers herself? Hasn’t Ken Wharfe said that he advised her not to, and she did it anyway? Why is it being repeated that Diana’s protection was taken away when she lost her HRH? Please clarify.
She did! She thought they would be telling the men in grey what she was up to! She NEVER would have been in that car, with a playboy " security" , and a drunk driver, driving well over the speed limit!😢😢😢
Diana had dispensed with the Met police because Martin Bashir and the BBC had wound her up by showing her forged documents. Among which was the libelous "Tiggy pregnant by Charles" plus an intimation that the RF was plotting to kill her. Without Bashir & BBC, Diana would've had Met police protection and would still be alive.
When Charles and Diana divorced Diana lost her HRH title and the Royal Family Members 24/7 Royal Police Protection given to them by Scotland Yard. As a single woman, after the divorce, Ken Wharfe her body guard wanted Diana to keep a level of 24/7 security but she was by then fearful of being spied on and would only keep Police Protection for her official public engagements and when she was out with her boys
Please "DO NOT" bring in Dr. Tessa. Not because she has a different opinion of things than the others but for her condescending attitude and always needing to take over the conversation and talking over and belittling the others. Please it's irritating to watch her. See how beautiful and authentic this episode was. I hope you will think about it twice or thrice before you bring her again. Thank you.
Ya, he have his "helpful finger" in Netflix scenario about Diana, Charles & Camila. I hope Palace will sue Netflix. Because William as well is Diana son, and he explicitly told that he not what that his mother is trusting around.. So if Netflix follow Harry's memories (?) William is older and Harry is 5th in line but William is 1st , so...?!
True. How he's turned his wife into Diana is creepy. She likes pretending she is Diana as well. That's the hook she has in him. People will be studying all the documentation on this for hundreds of years from now.
@johnnyhock, not a fan of Harry here but exploitation of the death for PR purposes and selfish agendas began with the RF and Firm’s insistence the boys follow their Mum’s coffin thru the streets of LONDON on intimate historical display. We need to be truthful.
I'm again confused why the Americans hate everything. I'm not that invested in other companies to get that emotionally involved. Companies like Netflix are their for my entertainment I'm not interested in its history or politics, why get upset about some entertainment company that is supposed to be there for my relaxation.
A brilliant channel. This team is very calm and measured, a pleasure to listen to. Richard is wonderful and Rebecca is very professional and authentic. Please Jo . . no Tessa ! 😲
The big difference is, that Diana never trashed the Royal Family, but Harry and his terrible wife do just that constantly. That is why they should lose the titles Duke & Duchess of Sussex. They use the titles the worst way possible. The people of Sussex are ashamed by this couple.
I won't be watching if she's on either. The way she spoke to Tom Bower was disgusting. I've always disliked the way she is rude to anyone who she disagrees with.
Despite all the “woke” talk and conversations, it seems like poor little Harry has been asleep for centuries. He is terribly out of date and anachronistic. Your comment was brilliant @Jan Williams

Princess Anne said in an interview...that there was a very different way a nanny treats the heir and the other child. It was said with a wry smile and almost an eye roll. So SHE KNOWS how it feels,and how others may treat "extras" less than.....yet she has all taken it in stride and made a great life and EARNED the love and respect of the world regardless. Why in the hell did H not speak to her about how to master his lot in life!!!!!! I'll tell youShe would say.."Get ocer it and get on with it!" Not what he wanted to hear. She is no nonsense. Takes what life gives her..and runs with it! She has what it takes to be a self satisfied human being. Comparing the two... proves there is something missing in H....a "chip" like Aniston once famously said about Brad Pitt. H needs to get on and get over it!
Princess Anne had a different nanny to the next generation ! It was a totally new generation . The favoured child was NOT William by any means . Harry was treated as Numero UNO !
@@BlackStump172 the Anne story was just an example of how SOME outside of the immediate family who spoiled him, could treat a spare different....and also an example of how Harry should JUST GET OVER IT! He had an AMAZING example to follow in both his Aunt Anne AND his GRANDFATHER!!! who lived his life two steps behind his wife...yet was ALWAYS looked upon as A MOUNTAIN of a Man!!!!
I know what Rebecca meant when she said Harry’s book is being translated into 16 languages, “including English,” but I still chuckled. It must’ve been difficult to translate Harry’s crayon scribbles into English. 😂
They don’t even to Harry do they since Harry is dragging Diana’s memory through the pig trough. At least I hope not . Wish someone would sue both Harry & Meghan for the mud slinging. Harry needs a gag order against how he talks about Diana.

Why waste your time on Dr Tessa's book? What does she know about Elisabeth and Philip? She can only read the "Body" (outward form), but she couldn't read the "Soul" (the real person) nor the "Spirit" (why Elizabeth had faith in God). Why Dr Tessa gets angry with Bowel's book? Write for $$$ too is it?
This is my favourite RUclips video of the week. (Better for not having Tessa Dunlop. So will NOT be watching the special Monday edition where she promotes her book) I cancelled our Netflix contract because I couldn’t bear any of our hard earned money going to Harry and his wife. Netflix and the Sussexes remind me of Dr Faustus. Sell your soul to the devil, he will claim it for his own.
Tessa Dunlop is rude, aggressive and thinks she has better ideas than others! She also put me off every time she is on the programme so please please DON’T invite her anymore! Thank you.
@ 8:05 Richard is a hoot! 🤭I love watching Palace Confidential, especially when it's with these three lovely people, because I believe you try to present things in a fair and factual way. (As much as possible) 😊🤴👸
Me too. Who on earth thought Tessa Dunlop a good contributor? Generally, it’s a good idea to have a contributor who has an opposing opinion in the mix. Promotes a balance of opinion and so on. However, she’s just unhinged and keeps talking over others and completely ignores facts.
@@rileyperkins2724 Love your first name! My surname was O'Reilly growing up, and wanted to keep the name going on in some way, bcuz my Dad had no boys to carry it on, so I named my son Riley. ☘ ☘️
@@KristieMAC1 My predominate lineage is Scottish, England and Swiss; however, there is an Irish cousin who was very close to my father: hence, Riley. Giving children surnames as a first and/or second name is an old, old custom. I like it; it identifies people for me. Usually the first child might have the father's maternal surname; later children could have the grandparents' surnames or that of a close relative or friend. Unfortunately, a confusion has been added, at least in America, where they are giving children first names that are surnames but have nothing at all to do with family. I find that deplorable.
I just want to say to Rebecca that I think you are lovely! Your hair is so beautiful and your makeup is so flattering. I always find the information your add to be both interesting and reliable. Richard is pretty too and I have a "Grandma Crush" on him for his personality! ~ An American Grandmother
Love your show and in particular, this panel. I’m afraid I cannot watch Tess Dunlop as she makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, refuses to listen and shows zero respect to other panelists. Sorry but will give the show a miss.
Love the new set...love this channel discussing the royal family...As long as Tess doesn't re-appear I'm truly happy 😊 shame the charity the sales going to won't be making much from this book no one I've spoken to is interested in what he has to say infact they say it should be advertised as a fiction story
I do not believe it's true that the proceeds from Harry's book are going to charity. I have heard that approximately £1.5M out of profits has been promised to Sentebale and several hundred thousand, also after profits, to Well Child. I would like to hear if that's your understanding or not and, if so, how "profits" are defined -- i.e., are profits calculated after Harry's fees, signing fee, etc. have been netted out of proceeds.
The amount given will be miniscule in comparison to how much he'll make. Ofc giving to any charity however small is a good thing but most of us don't use it as a ploy to sell books where most of the money raised from the book will line his and his wifes pocket. I wont be buying it, would rather give my money to a charity where i know the majority of my money if not all is going to a good cause
Correction Diana didn't have the police protection after her divorce because she refused it. It was offered to her and in her paranoia she refused it because she felt they were spies. Harry was the "spare" as in, privileged son of the Prince of Wales, now King Charles, without the responsibility of William. As for proceeds going to charity, only a portion are going to charities and it's only a small percentage. I've little doubt that Meghan "educated" Harry about how being "the spare" was insulting to him. I won't be watching The Crown this season. It is distasteful and hurtful, and as an American I'm embarrassed that it is an American production doing it.
Exactly! I hope they correct that statement. Really disappointed in Rebecca for repeating the lie that her police protection was taken. Nobody was happy with that decision other than Diana thanks to Bashir.
I watch a lot of historical fiction and docu-series and they ALL say as a matter of form "this is based on historical events but is ficitionalized for dramatic purposes". I think it is actually weird and sinister that The Crown has not done this.
Didn't the term Spare in reference to Harry stem from his mother? She was the one who adressed him like that in the media and no doubt how he knew about being a 'spare' from a young age. I wonder if he'll include that fact in the book. He's out out to make his mother a saint and everyone else in his family a villian. I've got to question his therapy and how they're enabling such destructive behaviour.
His therapy appears to be enabling him to be even more destructive to his family and more isolated from them. Rather odd IMHO. Why would anyone pay to get coaching from someone who appears to be so bitter, angry and badly behaved. Not a good role model IMO.
Of all the potential stories, possibly the most interesting is the surrogacy issue. I wonder why it isn’t investigated more in the British press? The inconsistencies are more than enough for a story.
It is not picked up because it is a conspiracy theory that was started by the twitter trolls who get off on claiming certain celebrities have faked their pregnancies. #moonbump. A very dark side of social media
@@tsipaswan from what I understand the super injunction is only legal in England. That jurisdiction would not prohibit say, American press from releasing that story.
I am watching from Spain. You have the most amazing dignity in the way you talk with your guests. I just love the way you use the least amount of words to put your ideas forward. ASK FOR A RAISE IN SALARY ...YOU DESERVE IT. The show is nothing without you. God Bless
Interesting comment made that Princess Ann was once the "spare". She was only the spare until Andrew was born, at which time he became the spare to Charles. I know things have since changed, but when we hear about the entitled, petulant behaviour of Andrew, much like Harry's, perhaps being considered the "spare" contributes to that sense of entitlement.
It seems as if Margaret was also petulant and entitled. I firmly believe this attitude has to do with being “the spare”. These people are raised to believe they will have a large role in history without having to fall into the same line as the future monarch. Then, later in life they learn what their real place is, and that’s behind the future monarch and all of their children. I don’t blame Harry for leaving or for being upset about how his life has turned out. I blame him for being a whiny hypocrite. 🤷♀️
@@lesleymcshanemitchell9651 Princess Anne would not have been Queen. She was only next in line after Charles until her brother Andrew was born, which bumped her down the line and then Edward further bumped her down the line. This was only changed in 2011: "In 2011, the prime ministers of the then-16 realms agreed unanimously to amend the rules of succession. Male-preference primogeniture was abandoned, meaning that males born after 28 October 2011 no longer precede females in line."
Will Netflix bring up the topic that keeps buzzing about referring to the paternity of Harry since they wish to throw as much damage as they can to the King and Queen and the rest of the family? Has Harry claimed immunity?
Re: members of the family treating staff badly, I’m reading Valentine Low’s book right now. He certainly references instances when other royals besides Meghan have been difficult to work for, but nothing seems to be on the scale of Meghan’s bald rudeness. That woman is a piece of work. The sooner she and Harry are relieved of their titles and any royal association, the better. Harry can come by himself for family funerals, but I can’t imagine why they’d even want to turn up for the coronation. It’s abundantly clear they have no regard for anyone but themselves and their endless petty grievances.
Of course they'll come to the coronation. They have to keep reviving the royal connection. That is the only reason anyone is interested in them----they have no talents to offer.
@@nancymoore1240 oh I'm sure they WANT and PLAN to come to the coronation, but I would hope that the RF will not INVITE them. They bring nothing but grief and suck the air out of the room. The sob stories about such inanities as epaulets for uniforms that were bandied about the week of the late Queen's funeral--utterly shocking. They don't need to come. They can stay in California and watch it on TV like the rest of us!
@@StrongopinionsRus So true. Hawwy's book comes out in January, that should be the end of them and their plans to go swanning around the coronation taking the focus from KC. Maybe, if he removed their titles, they'll be so mad they won't come. We can only hope.
I'm sorry but The late Princess of Wales REFUSED the protection. That night she called the papers to take pictures and got in the car with a drunk driver and didn't wear her seat belt let's not use feelings to gets in the way of the actual facts. As many I loved PD however she like all of us was human and we floored this constant putting her on a pedestal is ridiculous
@@kathleenmatthews6145 correct. I do get frustrated with Royal commentators going with the false narrative it's no better than the rubbish Harry says about his Mother and things surrounding her unfortunate and very sad passing away.
After the divorce Diana lost the paid for top level 24/7 Royal Police Protection when she lost her HRH title. As a single woman she was happy not to have any form of 24/7 protection as she hated the intrusion into her life. She did however keep Police Protection for when she was out with her boys and on official public engagements
@@nancymoore1240 this isn't true I think you can look up and see. She was known for calling them, she did it to make her the other man she was involved with jealous. As I said I liked her but I refuse to ignore facts if she had have worn her belt she would have survived.
I enjoy your podcasts, interesting updates on the RF. Richard and Rebecca are great, Jo is fab, but next time you have that banshee Tessa Dunlop on I'll be turning off
I won't be buying 'Spare" on principal alone. I did not like the way Harry and Meghan treated Harry's Grandparents in the last years of their life. Prince Phillip was dying everyone knew it, but both still appeared on Oprah. Her Majesty asked the couple to visit with her - August, as well as other times and just before she passed, they refused. Ruthless, uncaring, vindictive, self-absorbed behavior. IMO mud sticks. No amount of PR and consultants hired by Harry, will change that fact. With regards to this book being out in January, people including myself give vouchers for presents, this is not going to be an issue at all. It has been stated only a portion of the proceeds of this book will go to charity. If Harry dumps on his family in this book, the Sussex's titles should be striped. Their behavior is a reflection of what they deserve, book and otherwise. What goes around comes around. P.S Thank you for the heads up, I will be giving Monday a miss. Tessa is odious and rude. Sincerely, New South Wales, Australia
The more Netflix is ignored by the royal family and the media less attention will be given to the series. What I'm observing this content talking about it is acting as free publicity for Netflix. The attention should be on the positive work of the Royals rather than the book or docuseries or the crown.
I have never and will never watch the Crown based on principle that it is damaging and exploiting the Royal family. There are REAL British documentaries out there to watch. I won’t give one penny to any company that employees the Despicable Duo (Sparry and Megaliar).
Loved this episode and, as usual, salivated as soon as I saw Jo’s spectacular shoes ❤️ Everything had me smiling until you mentioned that insufferable Tessa Dunlop woman (yes, I know she likes to be called DR, too bad) was going to be flaunting her book! How unfortunate that she would chose to write on such a beautiful love story which, I’m sure, would have benefited from being written by a much more knowledgeable royal author like Angela Levin or Richard Eden 🤗 I will try to watch but cannot promise i’ll be able to stay until the end. Much love to the usual suspects 👏💕🌟❤️
My narcissist, psycho, abusive mother also had a PhD. In Clinical Psychology, no less. Doesn't mean a thing when all she could talk about was herself & 🦬💩. Insane people are always seen through. Tessa Dumb-Lop is such a person. Probably won't make a difference if I don't watch.....but still, * I WON'T BE WATCHING* if that woman is on the show. She makes my teeth itch! 🤮
I watched the first seasons, but I won’t be tunning in for anymore. It’s disgusting of Netflix. I hope the royals have enough to Sue. Netflix should be blackballed.
Great show, as always. Love Jo's deep violet, velvety shirt-dress. Also, Richard and Rebecca, two of my favourite panelists! 🙂 I'm wondering: How on earth Harry can fill 3 books with his life's story, without making it drag on foever!?! Also, what is meant to be in the content of their Netflix show!? A Kardashian-style, window into their lives, type of thing? Not very 'Royal'!
Good show. On the Crown, I think there is a big difference between dramatizing historical events and making up events that didn't occur in a majorly damaging way. Many people - especially younger folks and people from countries like the US totally believe the Crown is portraying actual history. Outrageous misinformation and defamatory twisting. Ugh
It seems to me Harry is exploiting his mothers memory, and will continue to do so as long as someone pays him--or not since his whine is the most notable thing about him now.
So lovely to see you all ! I do enjoy when Jo morphs into her English Extension Master role and corrects everyone's grammar even while reading comments on air. Brilliant !!
I've never watched The Crown, after watching a film based on Diana's affair with the doctor, I found it weird watching non documentaries on the Royals. It's just creepy.
This was an excellent episode! Everything was discussed in a calm, respectful, and reasonable manner. I agree with Rebecca English that Netflix has taken way too much liberty with the story line in The Crown. It began as historical fiction, but so many plot lines take so much liberty with the actual events that it should ditch the historical bit. It's amazing that for all their money and privilege, the royals get absolutely no respect or consideration. What recourse do they have? It is awful the way that their privacy is invaded and their stories violated. And sadly, this is not a new development. Just take a quick look at the 18th century cartoons lampooning the kings. The difference now is that it's not a local but an international situation. There is no privacy, no respite, no escape, and the royals are supposed to just take it. I truly pity them.
ALWAYS LOVE the “old friends of the show” as well as the new background…plus Jo’s shoes. Idea: Richard could have a side gig baking show (I imagine him to be a great baker) and Jo could have a side gig of shoe shopping worldwide show. 👠
Reminds me of the shoes in the 60's-70's. And be aware, if you kick your own ankles, you can get some nasty cuts from those sharp-edged heels! (I'm old enough to know this first hand.)
If this is the way Harry demonstrates his love and respect for his mother then he has lost every respect that I and vast numbers of people might have had for him…..he has made it a money maker. ..demonstrates his lack of integrity and respect for his father and Camilla together with the rest of the royal family…… Would there be more momentum should the book come out before or after Christmas??? Before Xmas could simply ruin the royals Xmas, after Xmas it gets closer to the coronation and might make any repercussions by the palace less likely….. Either way Harry’s reputation will struggle to keep his head above water………
Netflix should be ashamed of themselves making money rehashing such personal painful events which should at this stage should be well and truly buried. Wish they would just "Let It Lie"...Leave our Royal Family alone. Pleeeze!!
Strange that lady Rebecca English don't remember that Diana after HRH was stripped from her alone refused bodyguard protection from Palace it's not that Palace didn't give more protection to her. At the end of the day she was ex wife of Charles but she was a mother of future king of UK
Yes Diana lost her HRH title and the paid for top level 24/7 Royal Police Protection after her divorce. She also chose not to put in place personal Police Protection once she was no longer with Charles as she always hated the invasion into her personal life and wanted to be left alone. Ken Wharfe her former personal body guard speaks of how Diana would not accept Police Protection after her divorce apart from when she was out with her boys or doing official public engagements.
@@peteregan7864 Not at all. That is how it went down . There are many interviews by former staff and close friends who know first hand what happened when Charles and Diana divorced, as well as books written by well respected Royal authors, documentary's, highly respected Royal News Correspondents who have reported on the Royals for 20 years and the public who were around at the time who remember what happened. It is social media that tries to change history
@@peteregan7864 That is not what I was referring to. The point I was picking up on was that Diana lost her "Royal" Police Protection at the same time as she lost her HRH after the divorce. She did not refuse it she lost it. Later as a single independent woman, according to her body guard Ken Wharfe, she wouldn't agree to setting herself up with a personal security team because of the invasion into her privacy, fear of people betraying her and reporting back to Charles' 'camp' etc
Shame on those well known actors who chose to keep on working on the show. Shame on Netflix for making this. Sadly, though we Brits understand that a lot of it is fiction, and has dramatic licence others around the world, especially the gullible American market believe it's all true. That's the problem. Shame on Harry too for not speaking out. I sincerely hope that the RF decides to sue Netflix for defamation.
Please don't assume that the entire "American market" is "gullible." It's entirely possible to watch fiction, understand that it's fiction (based on historical data), enjoy the fiction without mistaking it for fact. The Royal Family (and I use that term with both respect and question) may not have any basis for "defamation" since much of what The Crown produces is in fact fiction based upon historical facts. Some Americans (myself) rarely watch The Crown because quite frankly I find the royal family "truths" to be far more interesting and even entertaining than the Netflix show, and I am, quite frankly, astonished at how much power GB is giving this fictitious series! LOL!
Why are the British so worried about what the Americans think about the crown? I see these comments everywhere. Is the USA a part of the commonwealth? Brigderton is more popular in the USA than the Crown.

Tessa is awful. Can’t watch her either. Totally turn her off. She is very very rude
I just can bear to watch her Woke, overbearing, nasty performances. She is a real Harpy. Please don't allow her on the show. She just ruins anything she does. 😡
If Tessa is ON......I'll switch OFF. And THAT's a promise!
Won't be watching Tessa EVER AGAIN!!!!!
Tessa Dunlop, well I'm definitely skipping that episode... terribly rude person.
Tessa is so cringe. Can't stand that weird-o. But like her idol MeMeMeGain, Tessa THRIVES on people disliking her. Why Palace Confidential would give that creature the time of day is beyond me. I'll pass on that show too.
Just the sound of her voice is nails on a chalkboard
Great programme ,so much better without Tessa Dunlop who has no concept of anyone else's opinion other than her own.
Lorna yes she's intolerable to listen to
@@eileenbytheway3684 I agree! The woman is insufferable!! no matter what panel she appears on, other guests don’t stand a chance to get a word in edgewise. And her high-falooting mannerisms…don’t get me started!
She’s a harpy.
Agreed!!
Agreed as well 👍
Tessa is nauseating and I will not watch on Monday. Otherwise, great show!
Love the new set! Great that Tess isn't on. You 3 carry the show superbly.
Agree. These three are a treat to listen to. Calm and Polite.
I could be wrong, but didn’t Diana dismiss her royal protection officers herself? Hasn’t Ken Wharfe said that he advised her not to, and she did it anyway? Why is it being repeated that Diana’s protection was taken away when she lost her HRH? Please clarify.
She did! She thought they would be telling the men in grey what she was up to! She NEVER would have been in that car, with a playboy " security" , and a drunk driver, driving well over the speed limit!😢😢😢
Diana had dispensed with the Met police because Martin Bashir and the BBC had wound her up by showing her forged documents. Among which was the libelous "Tiggy pregnant by Charles" plus an intimation that the RF was plotting to kill her. Without Bashir & BBC, Diana would've had Met police protection and would still be alive.
You're not wrong, but people have selective memories where Diana is concerned. She is never given responsibility for her own actions.
Agree. It was Diana’s decision to dismiss her protection. She didn’t want “spies”
When Charles and Diana divorced Diana lost her HRH title and the Royal Family Members
24/7 Royal Police Protection given to them by Scotland Yard.
As a single woman, after the divorce, Ken Wharfe her body guard wanted Diana to keep a level of
24/7 security but she was by then fearful of being spied on and would only keep Police Protection for her official public engagements and when she was out with her boys
Please "DO NOT" bring in Dr. Tessa. Not because she has a different opinion of things than the others but for her condescending attitude and always needing to take over the conversation and talking over and belittling the others. Please it's irritating to watch her. See how beautiful and authentic this episode was. I hope you will think about it twice or thrice before you bring her again. Thank you.
Thanks for the warning about Tessa Dunlop...
Nobody exploits Harry’s mother more than Harry himself…
Ya, he have his "helpful finger" in Netflix scenario about Diana, Charles & Camila. I hope Palace will sue Netflix. Because William as well is Diana son, and he explicitly told that he not what that his mother is trusting around.. So if Netflix follow Harry's memories (?) William is older and Harry is 5th in line but William is 1st , so...?!
True. How he's turned his wife into Diana is creepy. She likes pretending she is Diana as well. That's the hook she has in him. People will be studying all the documentation on this for hundreds of years from now.
Spot on.
And it will break his heart when he realizes it.
@johnnyhock, not a fan of Harry here but exploitation of the death for PR purposes and selfish agendas began with the RF and Firm’s insistence the boys follow their Mum’s coffin thru the streets of LONDON on intimate historical display. We need to be truthful.
I loooooove the way the 3 journalists speak about Netflix. It's all calm and very British.
Yea no Tess yuck
I'm again confused why the Americans hate everything. I'm not that invested in other companies to get that emotionally involved. Companies like Netflix are their for my entertainment I'm not interested in its history or politics, why get upset about some entertainment company that is supposed to be there for my relaxation.

Tessa Dunlop on next week….? Did anyone see the way she behaved on Piers Morgan Uncensored a few days ago? Unbelievable!
Well I guess I’ll be missing Monday, unless she started her meds again. Are you doing her a favour? Great program today 👏👏😊
If that Tessa is who I think she is, no thanks.
A brilliant channel.
This team is very calm and measured,
a pleasure to listen to.
Richard is wonderful and Rebecca is very professional and authentic.

No Tessa!!!!

Tessa runs roughshod over the journalists-and they are so polite they just take it. 🙄
Oh Totally Agree No Tessa Dunlop she is one crazy lady
@@GloriaLasace
She does not make PC
interesting or enjoyable.
She is too over the top and annoying.
The big difference is, that Diana never trashed the Royal Family, but Harry and his terrible wife do just that constantly. That is why they should lose the titles Duke & Duchess of Sussex. They use the titles the worst way possible. The people of Sussex are ashamed by this couple.
Thanks for the warning. Will be missing next week…Tessa Dunlop 🤦🏻♀️. I’m with Richard 100%! Can’t be bothered with her!
I won't be watching if she's on either. The way she spoke to Tom Bower was disgusting. I've always disliked the way she is rude to anyone who she disagrees with.

Might someone wake Harry up and advise him he hasn’t been the “spare” in a long time? Talk about arrested development.
Despite all the “woke” talk and conversations, it seems like poor little Harry has been asleep for centuries. He is terribly out of date and anachronistic. Your comment was brilliant @Jan Williams
I think the title was for shock value or to fuel Sparry’s victim mentality. Let’s knight him Prince Sparry - soon to be King of Perpetual Whine-Dom.
Harry's a spoiled brat. Anne isn't. That's the difference.
Princess Anne is a lady; Hazard isn't a gentleman.
Anne was only the spare for 10 years!

He’s such a sad man, so ungrateful so angry, so privileged Diana would be so upset
Harry is bitter
It is very rare seeing Jayne (mine) spelled the right way! I always tell people I'm no plain Jane..
Princess Anne said in an interview...that there was a very different way a nanny treats the heir and the other child. It was said with a wry smile and almost an eye roll. So SHE KNOWS how it feels,and how others may treat "extras" less than.....yet she has all taken it in stride and made a great life and EARNED the love and respect of the world regardless.
Why in the hell did H not speak to her about how to master his lot in life!!!!!!
I'll tell youShe would say.."Get ocer it and get on with it!"
Not what he wanted to hear.
She is no nonsense. Takes what life gives her..and runs with it! She has what it takes to be a self satisfied human being.
Comparing the two... proves there is something missing in H....a "chip" like Aniston once famously said about Brad Pitt.
H needs to get on and get over it!
Princess Anne had a different nanny to the next generation ! It was a totally new generation . The favoured child was NOT William by any means . Harry was treated as Numero UNO !
@@BlackStump172 the Anne story was just an example of how SOME outside of the immediate family who spoiled him, could treat a spare different....and also an example of how Harry should JUST GET OVER IT!

Sorry about typos. I think I fixed them all
Dr Tessa-NO!!!!!!!!
I know what Rebecca meant when she said Harry’s book is being translated into 16 languages, “including English,” but I still chuckled. It must’ve been difficult to translate Harry’s crayon scribbles into English. 😂
Great broadcast, love Richard and Rebecca, good discussion and conversation. Thank you
I’m always interested as to what the Spencer family thinks of all of this? Earl Spencer must have opinions!
They don’t even to Harry do they since Harry is dragging Diana’s memory through the pig trough. At least I hope not . Wish someone would sue both Harry & Meghan for the mud slinging. Harry needs a gag order against how he talks about Diana.

He is offended and said it needs a disclaimer.
Thanks goodness you returned this week... was having serious withdrawal symptoms! Another great episode - my favourite presenter combo!
Thank you for the warning regarding Dr Dunlop.Definately one to miss for me.
Why waste your time on Dr Tessa's book? What does she know about Elisabeth and Philip? She can only read the "Body" (outward form), but she couldn't read the "Soul" (the real person) nor the "Spirit" (why Elizabeth had faith in God). Why Dr Tessa gets angry with Bowel's book? Write for $$$ too is it?
This is my favourite RUclips video of the week. (Better for not having Tessa Dunlop. So will NOT be watching the special Monday edition where she promotes her book) I cancelled our Netflix contract because I couldn’t bear any of our hard earned money going to Harry and his wife. Netflix and the Sussexes remind me of Dr Faustus. Sell your soul to the devil, he will claim it for his own.
Tessa Dunlop is rude, aggressive and thinks she has better ideas than others! She also put me off every time she is on the programme so please please DON’T invite her anymore! Thank you.
Tessa is horrible!
Tessa .....Screech on Stilts .... absolutely rude undignified individual, unpalatable to eyes and ears of this viewer. Spare us.
Can't stand Tessa Dunlap.....
I stopped my contract with Netflix from very first year of Crown when I saw how they presented UK Royals and I am not British😊
Imaging William coming out with his own book called: Heir
😄
It would be good, but he will never do it. He hated his parents books and interviews and now Harry's.
William would provably not cooperate with such a book, but I think it would be a HUGE HIT. I'd read it for sure!

Tessa has been on all the shows this week and has been just as horrible as you could imagine her being. She’s always so unpleasant to everyone
Great panel and an entertaining discussion. Harry's book title is truly pathetic. I'll be sure to avoid Dr Tessa Dunlop on Monday. 👍
They really need to know haw many people dislike Tessa Dump-A-Lot.
Me too. Who on earth thought Tessa Dunlop a good contributor? Generally, it’s a good idea to have a contributor who has an opposing opinion in the mix. Promotes a balance of opinion and so on. However, she’s just unhinged and keeps talking over others and completely ignores facts.
Thanks for the warning, regarding you having Tessa D. next week. Ghastly woman!
See you in a fortnight.
One word about Harry changing his tune: Yoko. I mean Meghan. It’s not all Meghan’s fault of course. It reflects poorly on Harry’s judgment.
Exactly!
Hazard has no judgment.
@@rileyperkins2724 Love your first name! My surname was O'Reilly growing up, and wanted to keep the name going on in some way, bcuz my Dad had no boys to carry it on, so I named my son Riley. ☘ ☘️
Harry's judgement? He hasn't got enough brain to judge or foresee anything and if he has, the more shame on him.
@@KristieMAC1 My predominate lineage is Scottish, England and Swiss; however, there is an Irish cousin who was very close to my father: hence, Riley.
Giving children surnames as a first and/or second name is an old, old custom. I like it; it identifies people for me. Usually the first child might have the father's maternal surname; later children could have the grandparents' surnames or that of a close relative or friend. Unfortunately, a confusion has been added, at least in America, where they are giving children first names that are surnames but have nothing at all to do with family. I find that deplorable.
I just want to say to Rebecca that I think you are lovely! Your hair is so beautiful and your makeup is so flattering. I always find the information your add to be both interesting and reliable. Richard is pretty too and I have a "Grandma Crush" on him for his personality! ~ An American Grandmother

Love the new set...love this channel discussing the royal family...As long as Tess doesn't re-appear I'm truly happy 😊 shame the charity the sales going to won't be making much from this book no one I've spoken to is interested in what he has to say infact they say it should be advertised as a fiction story
I agree with you no Tessa
It seems she’ll be back on Monday 🙃
agree 100 percent please no Tess
She's a Suxes' camper and got really angry during the Pier's interview. Saaadddd! If she speaks the truth, it will set her free:)
No! NO TESSA! 😣 She is so rude, steam rolls over everyone else & disparages any one else’s opinion ! I mute immediately when she opens her big mouth!
I do not believe it's true that the proceeds from Harry's book are going to charity. I have heard that approximately £1.5M out of profits has been promised to Sentebale and several hundred thousand, also after profits, to Well Child. I would like to hear if that's your understanding or not and, if so, how "profits" are defined -- i.e., are profits calculated after Harry's fees, signing fee, etc. have been netted out of proceeds.
Probably donating to Archwell🙄
he certainly isn't giving much away
The amount given will be miniscule in comparison to how much he'll make. Ofc giving to any charity however small is a good thing but most of us don't use it as a ploy to sell books where most of the money raised from the book will line his and his wifes pocket. I wont be buying it, would rather give my money to a charity where i know the majority of my money if not all is going to a good cause
That Tess woman is aggressive and rude. If you're going to keep using her please send her to Anger Management first.
Correction Diana didn't have the police protection after her divorce because she refused it. It was offered to her and in her paranoia she refused it because she felt they were spies.
Harry was the "spare" as in, privileged son of the Prince of Wales, now King Charles, without the responsibility of William. As for proceeds going to charity, only a portion are going to charities and it's only a small percentage. I've little doubt that Meghan "educated" Harry about how being "the spare" was insulting to him.
I won't be watching The Crown this season. It is distasteful and hurtful, and as an American I'm embarrassed that it is an American production doing it.
Exactly! I hope they correct that statement. Really disappointed in Rebecca for repeating the lie that her police protection was taken. Nobody was happy with that decision other than Diana thanks to Bashir.
Diana was a wealthy woman and could have paid for her own securiry.
Thank you for letting us know that Tessa is coming. Love the show, but I will not be watching any episodes where she is coming.
I watch a lot of historical fiction and docu-series and they ALL say as a matter of form "this is based on historical events but is ficitionalized for dramatic purposes". I think it is actually weird and sinister that The Crown has not done this.
I agree!
Didn't the term Spare in reference to Harry stem from his mother? She was the one who adressed him like that in the media and no doubt how he knew about being a 'spare' from a young age. I wonder if he'll include that fact in the book. He's out out to make his mother a saint and everyone else in his family a villian. I've got to question his therapy and how they're enabling such destructive behaviour.
His therapy appears to be enabling him to be even more destructive to his family and more isolated from them. Rather odd IMHO. Why would anyone pay to get coaching from someone who appears to be so bitter, angry and badly behaved. Not a good role model IMO.
Of all the potential stories, possibly the most interesting is the surrogacy issue. I wonder why it isn’t investigated more in the British press? The inconsistencies are more than enough for a story.
It is not picked up because it is a conspiracy theory that was started by the twitter trolls who get off on claiming certain celebrities have faked their pregnancies.

Interesting comment made that Princess Ann was once the "spare". She was only the spare until Andrew was born, at which time he became the spare to Charles. I know things have since changed, but when we hear about the entitled, petulant behaviour of Andrew, much like Harry's, perhaps being considered the "spare" contributes to that sense of entitlement.
It seems as if Margaret was also petulant and entitled. I firmly believe this attitude has to do with being “the spare”. These people are raised to believe they will have a large role in history without having to fall into the same line as the future monarch. Then, later in life they learn what their real place is, and that’s behind the future monarch and all of their children.
I don’t blame Harry for leaving or for being upset about how his life has turned out. I blame him for being a whiny hypocrite. 🤷♀️

Can’t stand Tessa Dunlop so sorry will give it a miss
Oops, not watching on Monday. Ms. Dunlap is not a favorite of mine. Beautiful view from your new studio.
Will Netflix bring up the topic that keeps buzzing about referring to the paternity of Harry since they wish to throw as much damage as they can to the King and Queen and the rest of the family? Has Harry claimed immunity?
Thank goodness Jo is back. Couldn't cope with that stand in.
Re: members of the family treating staff badly, I’m reading Valentine Low’s book right now. He certainly references instances when other royals besides Meghan have been difficult to work for, but nothing seems to be on the scale of Meghan’s bald rudeness. That woman is a piece of work. The sooner she and Harry are relieved of their titles and any royal association, the better. Harry can come by himself for family funerals, but I can’t imagine why they’d even want to turn up for the coronation. It’s abundantly clear they have no regard for anyone but themselves and their endless petty grievances.
Of course they'll come to the coronation. They have to keep reviving the royal connection. That is the only reason anyone is interested in them----they have no talents to offer.
@@nancymoore1240 oh I'm sure they WANT and PLAN to come to the coronation, but I would hope that the RF will not INVITE them. They bring nothing but grief and suck the air out of the room. The sob stories about such inanities as epaulets for uniforms that were bandied about the week of the late Queen's funeral--utterly shocking. They don't need to come. They can stay in California and watch it on TV like the rest of us!
@@StrongopinionsRus So true. Hawwy's book comes out in January, that should be the end of them and their plans to go swanning around the coronation taking the focus from KC. Maybe, if he removed their titles, they'll be so mad they won't come. We can only hope.
I'm sorry but The late Princess of Wales REFUSED the protection. That night she called the papers to take pictures and got in the car with a drunk driver and didn't wear her seat belt let's not use feelings to gets in the way of the actual facts. As many I loved PD however she like all of us was human and we floored this constant putting her on a pedestal is ridiculous
I agree.I heard that she refused Royal Police protection which I believe was partly due to the false claims made to her by Martin Bashir.
@@kathleenmatthews6145 correct. I do get frustrated with Royal commentators going with the false narrative it's no better than the rubbish Harry says about his Mother and things surrounding her unfortunate and very sad passing away.
Diana did not call the papps. They had been following her relentlessly since her time on Dodi's yacht in the Mediterranean.
After the divorce Diana lost the paid for top level 24/7 Royal Police Protection when she lost her
HRH title.
As a single woman she was happy not to have any form of 24/7 protection as she hated the intrusion into her life.
She did however keep Police Protection for when she was out with her boys and on official public engagements
@@nancymoore1240 this isn't true I think you can look up and see. She was known for calling them, she did it to make her the other man she was involved with jealous. As I said I liked her but I refuse to ignore facts if she had have worn her belt she would have survived.
I enjoy your podcasts, interesting updates on the RF. Richard and Rebecca are great, Jo is fab, but next time you have that banshee Tessa Dunlop on I'll be turning off
This woman doesn't read much social media...... A large percentage of the public don't understand why their titles haven't been taken away before !!!
I won't be buying 'Spare" on principal alone. I did not like the way Harry and Meghan treated Harry's Grandparents in the last years of their life. Prince Phillip was dying everyone knew it, but both still appeared on Oprah. Her Majesty asked the couple to visit with her - August, as well as other times and just before she passed, they refused. Ruthless, uncaring, vindictive, self-absorbed behavior. IMO mud sticks. No amount of PR and consultants hired by Harry, will change that fact. With regards to this book being out in January, people including myself give vouchers for presents, this is not going to be an issue at all. It has been stated only a portion of the proceeds of this book will go to charity. If Harry dumps on his family in this book, the Sussex's titles should be striped. Their behavior is a reflection of what they deserve, book and otherwise. What goes around comes around. P.S Thank you for the heads up, I will be giving Monday a miss. Tessa is odious and rude.
Sincerely, New South Wales, Australia
The more Netflix is ignored by the royal family and the media less attention will be given to the series. What I'm observing this content talking about it is acting as free publicity for Netflix. The attention should be on the positive work of the Royals rather than the book or docuseries or the crown.
I have never and will never watch the Crown based on principle that it is damaging and exploiting the Royal family. There are REAL British documentaries out there to watch. I won’t give one penny to any company that employees the Despicable Duo (Sparry and Megaliar).
Loved this episode and, as usual, salivated as soon as I saw Jo’s spectacular shoes ❤️
Everything had me smiling until you mentioned that insufferable Tessa Dunlop woman (yes, I know she likes to be called DR, too bad) was going to be flaunting her book! How unfortunate that she would chose to write on such a beautiful love story which, I’m sure, would have benefited from being written by a much more knowledgeable royal author like Angela Levin or Richard Eden 🤗
I will try to watch but cannot promise i’ll be able to stay until the end. Much love to the usual suspects 👏💕🌟❤️
My narcissist, psycho, abusive mother also had a PhD. In Clinical Psychology, no less. Doesn't mean a thing when all she could talk about was herself & 🦬💩. Insane people are always seen through. Tessa Dumb-Lop is such a person. Probably won't make a difference if I don't watch.....but still, * I WON'T BE WATCHING* if that woman is on the show. She makes my teeth itch! 🤮
I watched the first seasons, but I won’t be tunning in for anymore. It’s disgusting of Netflix. I hope the royals have enough to Sue. Netflix should be blackballed.
I look at the book and the title and it’s just simply depressing and don’t want any part of
Great episode! Will skip Monday show w Tessa though. Ugh
Great show, as always. Love Jo's deep violet, velvety shirt-dress. Also, Richard and Rebecca, two of my favourite panelists! 🙂 I'm wondering: How on earth Harry can fill 3 books with his life's story, without making it drag on foever!?! Also, what is meant to be in the content of their Netflix show!? A Kardashian-style, window into their lives, type of thing? Not very 'Royal'!
Good show. On the Crown, I think there is a big difference between dramatizing historical events and making up events that didn't occur in a majorly damaging way. Many people - especially younger folks and people from countries like the US totally believe the Crown is portraying actual history. Outrageous misinformation and defamatory twisting. Ugh
How many young people watch the crown? It is not woke enough for them. Bridgeton is their kind of vibe.
Netflix lost me a long time ago !! I don’t even miss them 😂
It seems to me Harry is exploiting his mothers memory, and will continue to do so as long as someone pays him--or not since his whine is the most notable thing about him now.
This is such a CLASS show, well articulated and professional, relaxed, calm presenters. Tessa is not in the same league imo. So over bearing.
So lovely to see you all ! I do enjoy when Jo morphs into her English Extension Master role and corrects everyone's grammar even while reading comments on air. Brilliant !!
I've never watched The Crown, after watching a film based on Diana's affair with the doctor, I found it weird watching non documentaries on the Royals. It's just creepy.
Why do you keep promoting Tessa Dunlop?
She is a shouty pushy woman and not nice to listen to...actually she promotes BS
@Tab Ford UNSUBSCRIBE. Simple. Then they will stop!
This was an excellent episode! Everything was discussed in a calm, respectful, and reasonable manner. I agree with Rebecca English that Netflix has taken way too much liberty with the story line in The Crown. It began as historical fiction, but so many plot lines take so much liberty with the actual events that it should ditch the historical bit. It's amazing that for all their money and privilege, the royals get absolutely no respect or consideration. What recourse do they have? It is awful the way that their privacy is invaded and their stories violated. And sadly, this is not a new development. Just take a quick look at the 18th century cartoons lampooning the kings. The difference now is that it's not a local but an international situation. There is no privacy, no respite, no escape, and the royals are supposed to just take it. I truly pity them.
ALWAYS LOVE the “old friends of the show” as well as the new background…plus Jo’s shoes. Idea: Richard could have a side gig baking show (I imagine him to be a great baker) and Jo could have a side gig of shoe shopping worldwide show. 👠
Reminds me of the shoes in the 60's-70's. And be aware, if you kick your own ankles, you can get some nasty cuts from those sharp-edged heels! (I'm old enough to know this first hand.)
If this is the way Harry demonstrates his love and respect for his mother then he has lost every respect that I and vast numbers of people might have had for him…..he has made it a money maker. ..demonstrates his lack of integrity and respect for his father and Camilla together with the rest of the royal family……
Would there be more momentum should the book come out before or after Christmas??? Before Xmas could simply ruin the royals Xmas, after Xmas it gets closer to the coronation and might make any repercussions by the palace less likely…..
Either way Harry’s reputation will struggle to keep his head above water………
Netflix should be ashamed of themselves making money rehashing such personal painful events which should at this stage should be well and truly buried. Wish they would just "Let It Lie"...Leave our Royal Family alone. Pleeeze!!
Strange that lady Rebecca English don't remember that Diana after HRH was stripped from her alone refused bodyguard protection from Palace it's not that Palace didn't give more protection to her. At the end of the day she was ex wife of Charles but she was a mother of future king of UK
Yes Diana lost her HRH title and the paid for top level 24/7
Royal Police Protection after her divorce.
She also chose not to put in place personal Police Protection once she was no longer with Charles as she always hated the invasion into her personal life and wanted to be left alone.
Ken Wharfe her former personal body guard speaks of how Diana would not accept Police Protection after her divorce apart from when she was out with her boys or doing official public engagements.
@@delwynjenkins3581 Rubbish.

Not at all.
That is how it went down .
There are many interviews by former staff and close friends who know first hand what happened when Charles and Diana divorced, as well as books written by well respected Royal authors, documentary's, highly respected Royal News Correspondents who have reported on the Royals for 20 years and the public who were around at the time who remember what happened.
It is social media that tries to change history
@@delwynjenkins3581 She refused Royal Police Protection because she thought they would be spying on her.

That is not what I was referring to.
The point I was picking up on was that Diana lost her "Royal"
Police Protection at the same time as she lost her HRH after the divorce. She did not refuse it she lost it.
Later as a single independent woman, according to her body guard Ken Wharfe, she wouldn't agree to setting herself up with a personal security team because of the invasion into her privacy, fear of people betraying her and reporting back to Charles' 'camp' etc
Good video very informative thank you. Won’t be watching Monday thanks for the warning
Have not watched the crown and will not watch the crown especially now with their disgusting to near life storyline.
Same here. It’s a disgrace.
Same. It's in such poor taste.
Is I understand Diana refused security, also Harry is not donating all proceeds from the book 1.3 million !
Five cents from each dollar to charity
Shame on those well known actors who chose to keep on working on the show. Shame on Netflix for making this. Sadly, though we Brits understand that a lot of it is fiction, and has dramatic licence others around the world, especially the gullible American market believe it's all true. That's the problem. Shame on Harry too for not speaking out. I sincerely hope that the RF decides to sue Netflix for defamation.
Americans are not gullible. We do have enough intelligence to realize that this is fiction.
👏👏👏
Please don't assume that the entire "American market" is "gullible." It's entirely possible to watch fiction, understand that it's fiction (based on historical data), enjoy the fiction without mistaking it for fact. The Royal Family (and I use that term with both respect and question) may not have any basis for "defamation" since much of what The Crown produces is in fact fiction based upon historical facts.
Some Americans (myself) rarely watch The Crown because quite frankly I find the royal family "truths" to be far more interesting and even entertaining than the Netflix show, and I am, quite frankly, astonished at how much power GB is giving this fictitious series! LOL!
Why are the British so worried about what the Americans think about the crown? I see these comments everywhere. Is the USA a part of the commonwealth? Brigderton is more popular in the USA than the Crown.
Tessa has lost in on tv loads this week, she’s too woke now 😢
