Update: The Queen Mum finally powered down on Saturday 30
th March 2002 after an
uptime of nearly 102 years.
100 years old? Yeah, right..
Look at the evidence:
- Never speaks.
- 'Hip replacements' in her 90s. She's obviously going in for upgrades.
- Slightly scary and largely emotionless face.
I think
she popped off in the early eighties, maybe around the same time and
Charles and Di got married, and instead of facing all the embarrassment and losing this figurehead they called in
Jim Henson and then..
West World time! Nothing too complicated; mobility capabilities (cunning use of stick/radio-receiver or golf caddy with recharging facility) the simple wave and that's about it!
I predict she'll either 'pass away' at a convenient point in time or will go haywire and take out a couple of race horses at Ascot.
Just found out
Eddie Izzard makes a similar observation in his
Glorious tour. The
truth is coming out!
