Despite speculation he's not dead, simply retiring from public duties.
I guess he'll have to do all of his casual racism in private now.

I met him once, at Holker Hall.
Well when I said met him, what I actually meant is he shouted "Bagger orf, out of the way" at me and I gave him the finger.

I have met him on many occasions (along with most of the Royal Family) and in most cases he alway made me chuckle.
But I used to dread his callsign coming up on the radio. If he saw someone who he thought was a drink driver he would radio it in and we would have to go charging to the opposite end of the Motorway for what invariably just turned out to be a tired driver.
He meant well, but it was a pain sometimes.
I will miss him though.

I'm not sure you should have given him his own radio

He used to regularly drive himself with his protection officer alongsise in the passenger seat.
The 2 of them came across a crash on the M4 one night which I had to attend and I got talking to hos protection officer and I made the very point abot getting him to stay quiet.
Apparently it was tried. The protection officer was told to "Shut the f*ck up" literally and so the subject was never raised again
Back in the day, Philip had a Scimitar (which I remember was a nice car and something I always hankered after despite being a Reliant) and it was his toy which is why he was often driving rather than hos protection officer.
