We need Brian Blessed!?

Question

At the moment the Royal Family are a bunch of slimey, spindley german weirdos, so I think it's time for a change. I'm sure we could bend the rules just a little bit here, you know, re-arrange some birth certificates and rewrite the odd history book and bam! A new Monarchy!

We need a real British seeming King with a big round belly, hearty voice and a great big beard. Brian Blessed!

Anyone else agree?

Answer 1

I think we also need a little weasly manipulator in the Royal Family like .... oh, Edmund Blackadder!

Answer 2

who is Brian Blessed?

Answer 3

Excellent suggestion - loved him as the big blustery bully of a father to Rowan Atkinson's first Blackadder series.  Failing that how 'bout Billy Connelly?

Answer 4

....    someone like Henry  VIII you mean ....  ?
