There have been touching tributes from Prince Charles, tears from the Countess of Wessex, rosy family photographs from the Duchess of Cambridge, St Fergie of Condolence nipping over to comfort the Queen.
We had Prince Andrew sidling in from stage right, hoping everyone will forget the embarrassments of the recent past; Princess Anne paying tribute to her teacher, supporter and critic and Princess Eugenie rather patronisingly promising to look after Granny while 94-year-old Granny was already out there, having returned to royal duties four days after the death of her husband.
As Prince Philip lies in rest at Windsor Castle, his nearest and dearest are preparing themselves for his funeral tomorrow as only they know how. Yet nestled among the tea and the nation s sympathies has been an unedifying row over who will and who won t be allowed to wear military uniform to the service.

The most expensive house on the market in South Africa – or at least publicly listed for sale – is usually somewhere between R100 and R150 million.
It’s all about location, I guess, and if you want to spend roughly 23 times that amount, you can snap up Britain’s most expensive apartment, a penthouse that overlooks London’s Hyde Park.
You can even cover the £175 million (around R3,5 billion) with Bitcoin, as 48-year-old developer Nick Candy says he is looking to cash in on increased demand for London’s most exclusive homes.
The property, which is 18 times larger than the average UK home, has a media room, private spa, cocktail bar, two terraces, four car parking spaces and a wine room that can hold 750 bottles.
