I must admit to being very skeptical of the idea that Prince Philip would be without any security at all. As he once said in an interview he would be totally unable to get away to have an affair! He was a tall man at 6 feet by anyone’s standards. I also very much doubt that he would be derogatory about his family. My personal opinion is that he would not get drunk, nor have drugs. The image that Richard Dowson gives, of someone who has recently died and is in no position to defend himself, is in very poor taste as is the paper’s decision to print it.
