Most amusing！ Although it certainly doesn't spare the occasional blush and gasp。 Most amusing！ Although it certainly doesn't spare the occasional blush and gasp。 。。。more

Si tratta semplicemente di una raccolta di aneddoti e citazioni del Principe Filippo， suddivisa per macroargomenti。 Una buona lettura per farsi due risate （e， qualche volta， anche per riflettere） e per delineare sommariamente il personaggio， ma niente di più。Mancano fonti e riferimenti da parte dell'autore， quindi si ha un po' il dubbio circa l'affidabilità del materiale。Due stellette e mezza。 Si tratta semplicemente di una raccolta di aneddoti e citazioni del Principe Filippo， suddivisa per macroargomenti。 Una buona lettura per farsi due risate （e， qualche volta， anche per riflettere） e per delineare sommariamente il personaggio， ma niente di più。Mancano fonti e riferimenti da parte dell'autore， quindi si ha un po' il dubbio circa l'affidabilità del materiale。Due stellette e mezza。 。。。more

Royal Archie Bunker No doubt the Prince would bristle at the comparison， but he makes the same sort of cringe-worthy， "Ohmigod！！" -sort of comments that Archie did--only be was a sitcom character back in the 1970's， not a figure in English society for decades。 Philip never seems to evolve with the times， but I guess that's part of his charm。 Among many gems， one of my favorites is when he blandly makes conversation with 2 Irish Catholic nuns during the 1980's by asking whether or not they smuggl Royal Archie Bunker No doubt the Prince would bristle at the comparison， but he makes the same sort of cringe-worthy， "Ohmigod！！" -sort of comments that Archie did--only be was a sitcom character back in the 1970's， not a figure in English society for decades。 Philip never seems to evolve with the times， but I guess that's part of his charm。 Among many gems， one of my favorites is when he blandly makes conversation with 2 Irish Catholic nuns during the 1980's by asking whether or not they smuggled bombs in under their skirts to blow everyone up "to bits。"。 。。。more

Amusing and cringeworthyThis is an amusing read but you are left with the sense that an ordinary person would've been "taught some manners" long ago， indeed I began to find it rather depressing in the end， he clearly gets away with it because of who he is。。It is still worth reading to get a real sense of who Phil the Greek really is。。 Amusing and cringeworthyThis is an amusing read but you are left with the sense that an ordinary person would've been "taught some manners" long ago， indeed I began to find it rather depressing in the end， he clearly gets away with it because of who he is。。It is still worth reading to get a real sense of who Phil the Greek really is。。 。。。more

I can't help but like the old curmudgeon。 He's like an uncle you learn to tolerate because， well， it's not what he says but how he says it。 I can't help but like the old curmudgeon。 He's like an uncle you learn to tolerate because， well， it's not what he says but how he says it。 。。。more

A collection of Prince Phillips gaffs。 He's a good sense of humour， but the book just felt like a list by the end。 A collection of Prince Phillips gaffs。 He's a good sense of humour， but the book just felt like a list by the end。 。。。more

There are plenty of amusing - and/or offensive， depending on where you draw the line - anecdotes between Prince Phillip: I Know。。。's covers。 Unfortunately， however， Cawthorne's writing is rather amateurish and lets its material down。 There is little evidence of proof-reading or editing。 Mistakes are abundant。 There are no sources or references and so no way of knowing whether any of the stories mentioned are actually true。 To quote Prince Philip， somewhat ironically from this book， "You cannot t There are plenty of amusing - and/or offensive， depending on where you draw the line - anecdotes between Prince Phillip: I Know。。。's covers。 Unfortunately， however， Cawthorne's writing is rather amateurish and lets its material down。 There is little evidence of proof-reading or editing。 Mistakes are abundant。 There are no sources or references and so no way of knowing whether any of the stories mentioned are actually true。 To quote Prince Philip， somewhat ironically from this book， "You cannot take quotations in newspapers seriously。 It so happens that it is perfectly legal to put anything in a newspaper in quotation marks， and there is nothing you can do about it。 You have no copyright on what other people say you said。" The anecdotes are grouped under vaguely related themes and Cawthorne makes some very half-hearted attempts at linking them。 This mostly consists of a few "on the other hand"s and similar， like an essay written by a schoolchild。 The segues are haphazard where they exist at all。 The humour is present:"On being told that Prince Edward had secured a place at Jesus College， Cambridge with only a grade C and two Ds at A-level， he quipped: 'What a friend we have in Jesus。'""On a visit to caves in Australia， he was told 'beware of the drips'， to which he replied: 'Oh I've run into plenty in my life'"After he and the Queen watched the stripping scene from The Full Monty at the Royal Variety Show， he said to biographer Gyles Brandreth， "Don't worry， she's been to Papua New Guinea and seen it all before！" And so forth。 But this is not the best place to find it。 。。。more

Not Worth ReadingThe Prince appears full of himself with a sense of entitlement because of his birth and marriage。 His faux pas out of sheer ignorance are appalling。Carl Roache

My reading experience was marred by the number of typographical errors in this book。 Agreed， that this is the first edition; but that doesn't excuse such sloppiness。 That too in a book on a British royal！ As for Prince Philip- the man shocks and entertains in equal measure。 My reading experience was marred by the number of typographical errors in this book。 Agreed， that this is the first edition; but that doesn't excuse such sloppiness。 That too in a book on a British royal！ As for Prince Philip- the man shocks and entertains in equal measure。 。。。more
