My real answerKing Harold  I wish I could time travel and bring him some pukka weapons to change the  result at Hastings!Royalty has been rubbish since Charles1st

No wonder my son is so protective of his shoes £350 ! and no wonder he didn't tell me how much they cost, and he's got the audacity to moan about my handbag fixation phhhht

Always preferred the Gibsons myself.I am still buying the same loafers that I used to get at 9 Hill Rise!

I bought a pair of seemingly unworn Gant brogues from a charity shop in Chiswick for £20 about 6 months ago. I know Gant are a very good brand and had a shufty on the website. They retail at £350.

Yes Keith 7 guineas a pair back in 1969 , the tasselled  loafers were smart as well . The owner of the Ivy Shop or who had a lot to do with it - John Simon - now has a shop in Chiltern Street Marylebone still  selling the same American preppy stuff.

Oooops autocorrect I didn't mean prune Harry lol

Tracey Mehdizadeh ● 4417d

Princess Ann, nobody seems to remember all her work with orphans in far flung countries, long before Diana came along, ok she's considered rude, but she says what she feels and I have more respect for people that do than those that don't, next would have to be prune Harry another maverick and finally Prince William as long as he doesn't morph into his father, Prince Phillip is way down my list due to his philandering.

I remember them from the 70's Dave. I have a couple of pairs now, but better quality than I could afford back then.

Keith Iddon ● 4417d

The brogues that the Ivy Shop used to sell,brilliant shoes.

I have a soft spot for Phil the Greek, who has survived a nightmare childhood and always having to play second fiddle to his wife mostly with good humour.

Any who's names appear on a head stone will do!

Edward Rountree ● 4417d

Jim Royle. And Joe.

I think it is rather tough of us to expect them to be perfect.  I'm not sure that I have any favourites.We saw this just the other day which really made us laugh.  Don't remember seeing it before:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UVgZNf2b_0

No difficulty for me in declaring my three favourite Royals.Our present Queen is tops. She's got characteristics I admire, loyalty, wisdom, an understanding and diplomatic matriarch, a noble monarch.Next the Queen's eldest daughter Anne the Princess Royal for being so long and faithful Patron of the Scottish Rugby Union - poor Scotland the serial rugby union losers.Finally, the new'ish Duke and Duchess of Cambridge - they've started well, lets hope they continue to be unlike most of their family Royals who have had flawed characters and personalities - 'nuff said about them.

George III coz he had the Cartwheel Penny and Tuppence coins minted (1797 for Googlers),takes two people to lift each one.Henry VIII Just liked his style.Edward VIII for abdicating.

Tony Wood ● 4417d

My order as well Rhys with a mention though of Prince Harry who has that 'maverick' quality I like in a sea of 'grey'.
