    No-Longer-Prince Andrew

    Given how freaked out Harry is about security, I can't imagine this scenario actually happening.

    No-Longer-Prince Andrew

    I think Andrew did things that are beyond the pale and deserves to lose his titles. Harry married an American and wrote a memoir. Nobody is going to take away his titles for that.

    No-Longer-Prince Andrew

    Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, born with all the privilege in the world, and all he had to do to keep it was not be a sexual predator who cosies up to the worst people imaginable. Incredible that this was too much to ask. My heart goes out to those he hurt.

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    I think it was more or less mutual. They did not get along. IMO they were better matched with each other than with their subsequent partners, but what can you do...

    Wasn't it right after but everyone knew about it except her? I remember Nathalie Pechalat saying something like that at the time. He'd already finished 5th with Hurtado, and that didn't end well...

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    I'm at a loss as to why anyone - let alone someone close to him - would be surprised that Diaz wanted to retire when he was in his 30s, had skated at the senior level for over a decade, and was engaged and likely wanted to start a family.

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    I can understand hoping that a skater one admires won't turn out to be the bad guy in someone's story. But Papadakis should certainly not be compelled to stay quiet because of that. Well, this is when a memoir like this will sell... I assume she and whoever is working with her knows that there...

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    After watching Fear/Gibson's (not bad) FD, I had to go back and watch the Kerrs' Scottish OD. Now, I am hardly FSU's foremost technical expert and the Kerrs were not the strongest technical skaters, but it's striking how much more that program required of them as ice dancers than the current RD...

    I guess she is ready to move on to a job with the Italian Police.

    SOMEONE should. And think of the costume opportunities!

    As the Page Turns (the Book Thread)

    I always found Nora Roberts's books perfectly adequate and entirely forgettable. I do like her interviews and public persona, though.

    Royalty Thread #16: the best of times, the worst of times

    Ordered to for sure. There's supposed to be a separate thread for him because what he stands accused of is really beyond the scope of this thread (and potentially trigerring for people).
