The BBC has gone full black suit and all the royals are rushing to Balmoral.

 This thread for all Queen / Royal succession chat 🤔

I'm disappointed that you didn't start this thread with "So... this is going to be a thing isn’t it?" I genuinely clicked on the thread title thinking that would be the first words I saw. oh well.

In other areas of the internet I've already seen people saying this is going to have a bigger impact than the Covid lockdowns. 

The country is going to go in to full meltdown mode isn't it? It will be a spectacle to behold.

I wonder how many days off we will get? One for the funeral and one for Charles' coronation?

Apparently yes, a bank holiday for the funeral and another for the coronation is expected so I'm led to believe.

The day of the funeral and the coronation will both be bank holidays, and there's an official period of mourning (10-12 days), but it's unlikely we'll get that off. Which is a shame, I was hoping this would at least push back my deadline on Monday...

There's going to be a surge of insane flag-shagging nationalism, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Truss curry favour by getting us another day or two, to be honest.

Dan Wooton is cluching his pearls on twitter. You know, the gutter journalist guy who complains of comedy being cancelled because of all the lefty snowflakes. 

 

He was right about Johnny Depp being a wifebeater. A stopped clock etc.
