the only things i remember from watching the Two Ronnies as a kid was a series they did called the Phantom Raspberry Blower.. and another series they did about a world where women were in charge and wore leather fetish outfits and men wore dresses. the two Ronnies were plotting the overthrow of the matriarchy.
>>67672349

Attenborough is immortal. He won't die. Who would even Narrate the nature programmes? There's only Morgan Freeman who could do it.
>>67672392
5'11
>>67672396
david tennant is pretty good at them
the thing that makes attenborough so special though is that he was a naturalist first, broadcaster second. He knows what he's talking about rather than just reading a script
>>67672396
the only reason i can think of for developing the technology to download a person's mind to a computer would be to preserve David Attenborough's brain in case .. anything happened. which it won't.
>Still no sticky
This man is a comedy legend
>>67672392
he was a big guy
>>67672392
>>67672429
Britain isn't short of decent narrators - David Tennant as you say is alright. Paul McGann is good too. Michelle Dockery was lovely for that Japan: Earth's Enchanted Islands programme. There's a number of others who aren't actors. Attenborough can't truly be replaced anyway.
>>67672396
>Who would even Narrate the nature programmes?
Me, anon. While those documentaries are generally quite good they could still be better and I think it's safe to say the path forward definitely involves me narrating 'em in my thick Burnley accent, which certain persons assure me they can't even understand.
...
Besides, do you *really* want Stephen Fry doing 'em in addition to every shiteing thing else?

He was once the shortest commissioned officer in the Royal Air Force

>The Queen
I kind of want this to happen just because of how crazy it'll get. It'll be beyond any celebrity by several magnitudes, and then afterwards it'll have completely shaken up the image of the British monarchy, because it'll be a king instead of a queen.
Hell, the Brits might even throw the whole monarchy thing out while they're at it, because there'll no longer be a nostalgia thing with the regal queen everyone's used to, just that funny bumbling Charles dude or the balding dude who doesn't look royal at all.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, I was lucky enough to live in a town in the U.S. where the local PBS station actually aired The Two Ronnies. When I went to England in 1979, three books I picked up as souvenirs were But First The News, Nice To Be With You Again, and The Bumper Book of The Two Ronnies. I remember them with great fondness, and I think it's sad that most Americans (Or "Yanks" if you prefer) never heard of them, never seen their show, don't know who they are, or even care. This is a sad day indeed, but take hart that Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbet are somewhere in the afterlife providing loads of laughs. So, with a heavy heart, but with a melancholy smile, I say that it's good night from me, and it's good night from them.
RIP British Danny Devito
>>67677183
>the Brits might even throw the whole monarchy thing out while they're at it
Will we fuck, cucky republicans will use it as a platform to push the idea of a republic but nobody will take any notice of them.
>>67677367
I meant more it fading completely into obscurity in the minds of the public, because it'll no longer be "the queen".
Your biggest reason to keep them around is for tourism, and with the queen gone that plummets. Nobody will want to go to Buckingham palace in the hopes of seeing Dobby the king.
>>67675959
I'm guessing was there a lot of sneering involved?
>>67677455
>Nobody will want to go to Buckingham palace in the hopes of seeing Dobby the king.
Nobody gets a chance to see the Queen except for a special occasion anyway, besides women around the world are wet for William and Kate and they'll drag their husbands and kids half way around the world to Londonistan because of it. Tourism is never going to plummet when Her Maj snuffs it
>>67677183
>the Brits might even throw the whole monarchy thing out
That's not how monarchy works. There'd have to be a revolution, and that's not happening any time soon.
Besides, without the monarchy, thre's no Commonwealth. Without the Commonwealth there'd be much less security in terms of military might. Our monarchy bsically ensures the loyalty of 50+ countries, over a quarter of the world's population, including Canada and Australia. You don't kick that out because Charles III would be a bit wacky.
There's talk of the throne going straight to William anyway, and that would be pretty cool. He's a bit thin on top as well but he's a helicopter pilot in the RAF and looks pretty alpha.
>>67677183
it's gonna be a habbening of a lifetime when she dies. i can't see myself unironically supporting the crown anymore if it's King Charles, and I suspect a lot of the world doesn't care for him either
It really could be the end of the line!
>>67677455
William and Kate already have more star power than the Queen.
Many will hope that Charles will abdicate, but he won't
The monarchy overseas (Canada, Australia, NZ) is in far more jeopardy then it is in Britain.
>>67677842
I hope Charles doesn't abdicate the bantz would be off the charts
