King of the Clangers: Top 20 Prince Philip Gaffes
To mark the 94th birthday of Prince Philip – officially the longest-serving spouse of a reigning British monarch – we've rounded up his most cringeworthy (and hilarious) comments.
The beloved king of politically insensitive clangers, Prince Philip, turns 94 today.
