Camilla - marriage made in a road accident
Following up to a.spencer3
When Diana died in the road accident she was not the wife of Charles. They were divorced. And Diana, of course, was then sleeping around with far more abandon than Charles ever did. Isn't it said that one of the princes looks very like her lover rather than Charlie? I seem to remember the press trying to get hold of DNA? -- Mike Reid Wasdale-Thames path-London-photos "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk" -- you can email us@ this site Eat-walk-Spain "http://www.fell-walker.co.uk" -- dontuse@ all, it's a spamtrap |

It's Harry that the rumour is about. Funny you mention that, because looking at a recent photo of Charles on the internet last night, I was struck for the first time by the resemblance Harry has to his father. Oh, and I noticed that the Italian newsreader that the BBC replayed (they were surveying international reaction) referred to Charles as Carlo (Carlo d'Inghilterra.) If the Italians even pronounce the christian names of foreigners in their vernacular, then I wouldn't worry about the anglicisation of place names! -- David Horne- www.davidhorne.net usenet (at) davidhorne (dot) co (dot) uk |

Following up to Dave Smith
When Diana died in the road accident she was not the wife of Charles. They were divorced. How dare you allow facts to interfere with conspiracy theory. These wackos give Charles much more credit than I would. I just can't imagine him having the brains to arrange for his ex-wife's lover's chauffeur to get drunk and to also arrange for them to be pursued at high speeds through the streets of Paris where they end up flipping a luxury car. he might well have the brains to know that such a risky strategy was highly dangerous, unnecessary and counter productive in making Di a sort of saint figure. -- Mike Reid Wasdale-Thames path-London-photos "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk" -- you can email us@ this site Eat-walk-Spain "http://www.fell-walker.co.uk" -- dontuse@ all, it's a spamtrap |

If the Italians even pronounce the christian names of foreigners in their vernacular, then I wouldn't worry about the anglicisation of place names! how odd! I shall start talking about John Charles of Spain :-) Strange thing is that British newspapers, which have generally adopted the practice of using the original name of modern foreign monarchs, like Juan Carlos, frequently anglicise the Italain pretender's name as Victor Emmanuel. (One spectacularly egregious example in the Grauniad went on to call him "Mr Emmanuel".) His son's name is often given the illogical Bayern Munich treatment, being half-anglicised as Emmanuel Filiberto, rather than Emanuele Filiberto or Emmanuel Philbert. The Italians are pretty consistent in italianising the British royal family - la regina Elisabetta, il principe Filippo, il principe Carlo (but, as noted, bizarrely "d'Inghilterra" rather than "di Galles"), la principessa Anna.... In Monaco, they italianise il principe Ranieri, but leave his late wife in English and the daughters in French! Alan Harrison |

I do not want to be rude, but you are begging the question. One can just as easily argue that Prince Charles did order Diana's death because no one would believe he would be so stupid, as Charles has "the brains to know that such a risky strategy was highly dangerous, unnecessary and counter productive in making Di a sort of saint figure." Put it another way. Lawyer accuses Charles of arranging the death of Diana Princess of Wales. Charles responds, "why would I do that?
