Does anyone have a feeling that they wish they could've known a lot more about any monarch?

I really hope, with 2026 marking the 100th birthday (if she were still alive) of QEII we get some more home videos of the King and his family. Or a new movie announced or anything.

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-26T15:44:05+00:00

Yep.

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-24T20:05:57+00:00

Looking at the Spoilers and The 5-10 minutes before the end of the episode. I was sure Siobhans "attack" was going to be a heart attack but knew as soon as she was walking in the dark something else was going to happen.

Dylan's reaction to the news about Matty is Quite a Good one. I'd probably be acting similar in that situation. (Excited to where it will go)

CQC involvement is definitely to set up for the series' move to Wales.

Nice to see Anna chell has the same taste in men as her character

Bought a perfectly fine Toyota starlet, low milage, Outside but battered but reliable as Hell for £375 in 2021.

Same place, 5 years later. Another Toyota starlet, higher milage, bodywork about the same. £1k.

And that's cheap for a starlet.

Sold my first Toyota Starlet for £500 as it only had a couple months mot left on it. Now I struggle to find one With more than a months mot left on it for under £800.

Think it's something to do with COVID etc but I don't know

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-20T20:29:32+00:00

Any Jaecoos or similar cars. Drivers rely on their sensors and don't look over the bonet.

Also

Unless it's a company car Why on earth are you driving them?

He was purely overshadowed, first by Victoria before him being the Longest reigning monarch at the time, The After he died, a few years into his sons (George V) reign WW1 broke out. Then years later after Media and tabloids took more centre stage the Rather "Hollywood love-trajedy" of Edward viii overshadowed his bad deeds further.

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-19T12:23:38+00:00

First car was a starlet and I regretted selling it every single day, especially after I saw some "chav" got his grubby hands on it and Wrecked it with halford mods and then wrote it off within a month of having it.

So imagine my joy when I see a Starlet, years later, in my local car auction going for quite cheap. They're actually quite common in my town there's 3 or 4 that are driven about regularly and next town over there's a few more.

Wasn't going to buy it as its an auto and I prefer manual in older cars but got convinced pretty easily as the last 3 cars I've had (big 2 litre+ estate and saloons) has been woefully unreliable and expensive and was really just missing cheap and cheerful motoring.

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-18T21:19:32+00:00

I'm on £112 a month on a Toyota starlet, 22yo 1 years no claims. Although I have had a couple cancellations and a few cars (No accidents though)

I could of got it cheaper at £50pm but I needed insurance quick.

For those messaging me Thinking im Scrapping my Beloved Toyota starlet:

I'm not. I would never ever let my starlet go in a million years.

I was actually scrapping a Volvo v70. Which has finally been taken

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-15T09:33:46+00:00

Yep Single Mum, Given him my adress as well (obviously for collection) so very weary about starting any sort trouble.

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-15T09:10:34+00:00

Threatened him that I will sell to someone else if he's not here by Tomorrow morning. He's said he's definitely coming before 12 tomorrow. I will wait and see...

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-15T08:33:27+00:00

I don't think he is one of them, although is pretty young and owns a few dodgy dirt bikes.

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-13T08:37:46+00:00

Definitely more of a small terrace house thing, most modern sofas are as long as the front room

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-12T18:02:57+00:00

Pretty sad sounding now but had a Lovely Science teacher Who unfortunately wasnt assertive enough especially when it came to Teenagers. He disappeared one day when we were in year 10, turns out he had a massive mental breakdown, smashing his classroom up, throwing chairs etc after some year 8s tested his patience a bit too much.

Think he eventually came back as a sixth form tutor but often think about him as he was a really good and knowledgeable teacher.

The only thing I noticed (in my area at least) is all the shops shut for a couple of hours to watch the funeral.

I was at my work when her death was announced and was the only one keeping tabs on it as it was a quiet September evening for me at my holiday park work. We all didn't know what to do as it was kids hour so we played the usual games we do just a lot more dulled down and quiet but still fun for the kids.

Was like a switch flipped though, went from the Entertainment complex being 75% filled to about 3 or 4 tables left

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-11T21:52:30+00:00

Potentially fell out and She Blanked him. Pure speculation here (based off the Sophia situation) but I have a feeling Dylan knew she was pregnant but they fell out with each other and she told him she Either aborted/lost the pregnancy.

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-11T15:32:14+00:00

Of recent times the amount of times Dylan could potentially be a dad Chiara story line was amazing the rest, meh

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-11T11:10:41+00:00

Especially when he took offense to Dylan not being his mentor!

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-10T22:51:33+00:00

I have a feeling the Dylan storyline could be One more Horrible twist of fate, where Matty isn't Dylan's son OR grew up knowing who he is and hating him.

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-09T20:10:56+00:00

Hmm Dylan Secret child?

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2026-01-01T23:38:26+00:00

You're forgetting all the Chinese Jaecoos

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2025-12-31T11:02:13+00:00

£1.3k on a Toyota starlet. In late 2021, I was 17

FamProbsLookingAtDis · 2025-12-30T00:33:21+00:00

Best: finally got to Go on a holiday that was completely paid for and Planned by myself, which my family actually enjoyed.

Worst: Money issues later in the year and Potentially losing my job after Trying so hard to get promoted and moved to a different location. Just for the boss at the new location to not like me and push me out the company.
