Sooperstar Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Pure speculation from me but I'm pretty sure this is the end of the old chap. Prince Charles visiting him in hospital, which wouldn't happen unless it was serious. Once he is gone I reckon auld Queeny won't be far behind him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
