This article reckons that someone has worked out that Queen Elizabeth shouldn't be on the throne at all ...

Yes. Yes. Oh god yes!

Frogmarch the lot of 'em to the guillotine.

Yeah its some guy called Hastings.

My last name also.

Maybe I'm owed some money...

I'm the king

Yeah.

Dad was killing Frogs, while Mum was fraternising with an Archer at the time he was supposed to have been concieved.

Indeed.

I'm not sure on the exact ins and outs - I just scanned through the article and thought it would be an amusing post.

I'll read it later when I've finished what I'm doing ...

I saw a programme about this the other day, where Balrdick from Blackadder claimed that his research team figured out that Edward II was illegitimate, and so the whole monarchy descended from him isn't actually from the royal birthline after all! And that's why the 2 princes were murdered in the tower, because they were standing in the way of him and the throne, or something like that. Quite interesting, as the royals popularity is at an all-time low. It's not a new theory though - apparently it was common knowledge amongst the royal household and servants at the time that the baby wasn't the Kings. Didn't they work it out because the King was away at battle at the time she conceived?

It would involve Australians wouldn't it... :)
