Title: The King
Post by: SydneyRover on September 24, 2022, 12:15:11 am
The PR machine rolls on aided by the bbc.

 ............... ''And this shows a King getting straight down to business, with his work literally in the foreground. The angle of the picture emphasises the desk and the papers he has to sign''

All nicely posed in natural light, life is tough at the top

Artfully placed photo of Mummy and Daddy too. This photo shows no signs of staging at all.

He looks like Mountbatten in that pic.

Some people must spend hours and hours looking to find fault with everything
Why wouldn’t it be a staged photo.  When are any photos of this nature not posed for or set up in some way. 
To suggest otherwise is ridiculous

Some people get comfort from believing others are as fake as they themselves are. The big giveaway is the knowledge they have of how to be fake!

Chuff me, I'm agreeing with CDH. I think it's to have a drink. Or stop drinking. One or the other.

Let's be honest, you do comment on virtually every thread, multiple times, so the law of averages says it had to happen sometime lol

Oddly enough, that is what forums are for. To comment about things. Many other posters also make multiple comments across different threads too but best not mention them, eh?  ;)

If people didn't comment about things, then there wouldn't be a forum.

Logical?

Sydney was probably wetting his nappies then  (nothing changes does it)  :crying: and I am sure his parents would have taken a "staged managed" picture of him

I can see your point phil, better to stage them yourself than let others control the narrative as in 1937 and the recent informal photo op for Andrew hasn't gone down too well either aye?
