15.05 The
Sussex show
“Prince Harry
had appeared on
Armchair Expert,
a podcast with Dax
Shepard and Monica
Padman. In the
recording he said
that in his early
twenties he wanted
to quit his royal
life, describing it
as a cross between
living in a zoo and
The Truman Show,
a film in which a
man lives in a reality
TV programme.
But that’s exactly
what he’s gone to
California for. He
and Meghan are a
good couple to draw
and, obviously not
deliberately, they do
make total bloody
arses of themselves.
It’s almost too easy.”

12.05 Those social
care proposals in full
“The government
had been talking
about social care
proposals for years,
including in the 2019
manifesto. However,
when the Queen’s
Speech rolled
around, there was
no mention of them.
I think this makes
clear what had
happened to
the proposals.”
