9:07 pm
palace for us. cameron, thank you very much. what do we know so far .7 so far.7 >> well, patrick, at 6:00 this evening, buckingham palace released a pretty lengthy statement confirming that the king has been diagnosed with a form of cancer . king has been diagnosed with a form of cancer. now it's understood that it is not prostate cancer. if you remember a few weeks ago , he was in a few weeks ago, he was in hospital receiving treatment for an enlarged prostate, which buckingham palace at the time said was benign. and it's understood that doctors, by treating the king for that separate condition, discovered something else. and that is why the king returned to sandringham , returned to london from sandringham. this morning to begin outpatient treatment. begin his outpatient treatment. so he is travelling to and from hospital, but then is staying at clarence house, so he's not expected to spend night at expected to spend the night at at any hospital. but of course , at any hospital. but of course, it's not just a uk story. this actually it's pretty global events and we've had tributes flooding in from across the world most recently from president joe biden as well, who
9:08 pm
has sent his best wishes in the last few minutes. the media here are all from different countries , us. and then we had about an hour later this statement from a source close to the duke of sussex, prince harry, who not only heard of the king's diagnosis from the king himself, as well as prince william, but he's also chosen to come back from the united states to be with his father at this time . so with his father at this time. so he expected to arrive in he is expected to arrive in london within the coming days, which suggests to me perhaps a bit of an olive branch, and does really show that perhaps the king does love his king still really does love his son. and meghan, as we understand it, is not expected to travel with him. he's she's going to stay in the california with the two children on the surface , a cancer diagnosis surface, a cancer diagnosis seems pretty scary. we're told that the king is grateful to his medical staff for catching it, and he's also pretty hopeful for the that perhaps it's been caught early . early enough caught early. early enough because we know that the king is
9:09 pm
going to be very much carrying on with duties behind the scenes. so although we're not going to see him in public, he is going to be carrying on signing those government papers, reading cabinet minutes. it's understood he's going to continue , um, meeting prime continue, um, meeting the prime minister weekly well as minister weekly as well as attend council meetings. attend privy council meetings. so diagnosis, but it so a scary diagnosis, but it looks like he's got the best possible care. possible medical care. >> cameron walker, >> absolutely. cameron walker, thank much. outside thank you very much. outside buckingham palace for us, our royal correspondent. now tonight i am joined by a very, very special panel to react to all of this shocking news at this shocking news editor at large and royal ncuti gatwa extraordinaire , charlotte extraordinaire, charlotte griffiths , former bbc chief griffiths, former bbc chief political correspondent john sergeant, and former brexit party mep belinda de luci. arguably the most patriotic woman in britain, now , just woman in britain, now, just before i come to my wonderful panel before i come to my wonderful panel, because we have a heck of a lot to pick through tonight, obviously this diagnosis itself what may mean, we're going obviously this diagnosis itself wae may mean, we're going obviously this diagnosis itself wae ma asnean, we're going obviously this diagnosis itself wae ma as well we're going obviously this diagnosis itself wae ma as well about going obviously this diagnosis itself wae ma as well about the 1g to be talking as well about the role it's going play for role that it's going to play for william. what the nation, uh, will of this as will react to all of this as well. and of course, that news
9:10 pm
that harry is coming back. but before of that, i just want before all of that, i just want to go straight to princess diana's butler confidant, diana's former butler confidant, paul burrell. you were paul burrell. uh, paul, you were diagnosed prostate cancer diagnosed with prostate cancer last year, i believe. now the palace have confirmed that the king's own illness is not prostate cancer, despite the fact what he fact that that's what he initially for a initially went for in a procedure his prostate. how procedure on his prostate. how do you think he'll be feeling at the moment? >> i think he's , um, feeling >> i think he's, um, feeling shocked the way we are to hear this news. i mean, first we were told that his condition is benign and then we're told that he has some form of cancer. so it's very worrying. uh, my thoughts are king, and thoughts are with the king, and i him a very speedy and i wish him a very speedy and full recovery . i know from full recovery. i know from personal experience, patrick, that, um, this impact is on the whole family . and in this case, whole family. and in this case, it's on the whole nation. um, millions are touched by cancer, as you know, and, um, the king is no exception to this. now, he's he's joined that club. um, but what he's doing is, um , is but what he's doing is, um, is brilliant. he's he's he's using
9:11 pm
his his, um, condition , uh, to his his, um, condition, uh, to get to other people. he's using the platform for the best possible reasons. um, and it's changed a lot since the last monarchy because, um, i remember the no, no conditions were ever released by buckingham palace. they didn't talk about medical records . and many of us in our records. and many of us in our country are still, um , blind as country are still, um, blind as to what happened to our dear late queen. so things have moved on a great deal since, um, the queen's passing . um, i don't queen's passing. um, i don't think it's a time to panic, though, patrick. it's not. i mean, people have said that he's continuing with his work behind closed doors. his government papers and things, and he he seems to be in good spirits. papers and things, and he he seems to be in good spirits . and seems to be in good spirits. and he's got the very best medical care. so, you know, i think he should lean on the princess royal and the duke and duchess of edinburgh and william to such an extent that he can, um, to keep the show on the road . keep the show on the road. >> yeah. spare a thought for
9:12 pm
william as well. we've had catherine in hospital by. yes. very serious operation by the sounds of it. uh, obviously we've got sarah ferguson, who's recently had a cancer diagnosis herself. some other issues affecting the royal family, which we don't need to go into this evening. a heavy burden to fall william. of course, fall on william. and of course, he be greeting brother he will be greeting his brother harry days. we harry in the coming days. we believe as well. >> yes. well, it's not william's time you know. thought time yet, you know. he thought he'd have least another he'd have at least another ten years family and to years to grow his family and to live a happy family, private life with kate and at adelaide cottage. and then probably royal lodge in the future . um, it's lodge in the future. um, it's not his time . um, and i think not his time. um, and i think this is a great burden for william to think about with harry coming back as well. well listen, uh, the king loves both his sons. when i was diagnosed with cancer, the first thing i thought about were my two sons and i told them. the king has done the same. and quite rightly, harry's coming back to show public face. perhaps. but then to support the king and his
9:13 pm
brother . and then to support the king and his brother. and i think this could be the step we need towards reconciling ation between william and harry. the their father is ill and the two sons should come together to support the king, certainly in private, behind closed doors. this doesn't mean, of course, that harry is going to start doing pubuc harry is going to start doing public duties in this country. thatis public duties in this country. that is not the case. he's coming because his father is sick and that's that's what we all do, isn't it? we all rally and this family know better than anyone on, um, how to rally together, how to pull the troops together, how to pull the troops together and how to carry on regardless , he will be getting regardless, he will be getting some of the best medical care. >> paul, i mean, look, you will have had an insight into the kind medical that kind of medical attention that the family received. and the royal family received. and i think, first thought think, look, my first thought with goodness gracious with this was, goodness gracious me, king must getting me, the king must be getting more check—ups. at more medical check—ups. and at the highest level than the highest possible level than pretty anyone else in the pretty much anyone else in the country. and yet, this seems like it a shock finding. i
9:14 pm
like it was a shock finding. i mean, what kind of care do you think you'll be getting now? it does outpatient . does seem to be outpatient. >> a shock because >> well, it is a shock because once your prostate is looked at, there are other things in the region which people look at too. i mean, that is a very delicate area where your prostate is and the urethra and the lower bowel and all of those things could be and all of those things could be a problem in later life. but what is good is the fact that they found it so early, early diagnosis can save lives , not diagnosis can save lives, not just in prostate cancer , but in just in prostate cancer, but in any cancer. and they found something worrying. and they're deaung something worrying. and they're dealing with it. and he's being treated by it. and i think that's an incredible that they've actually found it . they've actually found it. >> mm hmm. >> mm hmm. >> and camilla as well now will also face a heavy burden. it's worth remembering her at this particular time, isn't it? how do you think she'll be dealing with this? >> well, i think she's the steady hand on the tiller and she's she's the guiding she's the she's the guiding force. think this new
9:15 pm
force. and i think all this new movement prince of wales movement of the prince of wales being so or the sorry, the king being so or the sorry, the king being so or the sorry, the king being so open, i think it's down to camilla. i think she is the, the stabiliser on the royal family's. >> uh, so you think, paul, that the reason why the king has gone pubuc the reason why the king has gone public about his cancer diagnosis is because of camilla? >> i do i think she has that touch.i >> i do i think she has that touch. i think she's able to reach people in a way. the king can't. and i think she's taught him a lot in the last few years about the monarchy and how to be king. and isn't that odd, really? that she should come up through the ranks and be so supportive and such a stabilising influence in our modern day royal family and you mentioned a little earlier there about prince harry doing the right thing coming back. >> i think everybody agrees with that. i think that this is a moment for potential reconciliation . ian, do you reconciliation. ian, do you think it's right that meghan markle is staying away? >> personally , i think she
9:16 pm
>> um, personally, i think she would confuse and cloud the issue if she came over . would confuse and cloud the issue if she came over. um, i think her best place is in america. she should stay there and look after the children. this is harry. will deal with this personally . he came over this personally. he came over for the coronation by himself. he's over now to wish his he's coming over now to wish his father well by himself . i think father well by himself. i think that's going to. what's happened in the future. that will it will follow this this pattern . i follow this this pattern. i think meghan doesn't have much. um love of these islands, whereas harry does . whereas harry does. >> okay, just one final one with you, paul. thank you very much for your time this evening. could you just issue a message to king charles the third, please? i mean, you have been through something relatively please? i mean, you have been throughquitezthing relatively please? i mean, you have been throughquite recently.atively please? i mean, you have been throughquite recently .tively please? i mean, you have been throughquite recently . you.y similar quite recently. you obviously family . obviously know that family. well, what would your message be? >> my message to the king would be, um, you're in very good hands. we have the most incredible national health service in our country. you have the very best medical care. um, put your faith in them and
9:17 pm

9:19 pm
9:20 pm
9:21 pm
9:22 pm
sunday mornings from 930 on gb news . news. >> this is patrick christys tonight only on gb news. now buckingham palace has tonight made public king charles's diagnosis of cancer. just over a week after a visit to a private london hospital for an unrelated prostate procedure . the king was prostate procedure. the king was then spotted looking quite frail at a church service in sandringham yesterday before buckingham palace told the nafion buckingham palace told the nation today during the king's recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. subsequent diagnostic tests have been identified as a form of cancer. his majesty has today commenced a schedule of regular treatments. he remains wholly positive about his
9:23 pm
treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible. i'm joined now by private gp doctor laurence gerlis to shed some more light on the medical hurdles that could be facing the monarch. doctor laurence, when you look at this statement from the palace, what do you see with your medical hat on? what what do you think we know about the king's problems ? king's problems? >> well, i think the most telling piece of information is that he's been advised to avoid a public facing duties. i think you can infer what you like from that. but let me just go back because i've got it wrong. i assumed he'd had prostate cancer . in fact, i've been assuming it for a couple of weeks because nowadays we rarely do surgery for benign prostatic disease. so i. i was surprised. anyway, he was having an operation. i had assumed that they were keeping it quiet. and when the announcement first came out tonight, i wrongly assumed it was prostate cancer . so i've was prostate cancer. so i've been wrong once and it's difficult to speculate, i'll difficult to speculate, but i'll throw it back you and i can throw it back to you and i can let do speculation. if he
9:24 pm
let you do speculation. if he cannot be in public facing, um, situations . there's a reason for situations. there's a reason for that because his immunity will be affected and that's going to be affected and that's going to be by the treatment that he's probably already having. um, now there's a whole range of possibilities as to what sort of cancer he's got. and it may actually be helpful if they release that information , release that information, because i think it is quite frightening. listen, i wish him well. i'm sure he will do well. he's got the best quality of medical care. um, there's there are a few mutterings on social media about, well, wish media about, well, i wish everyone could have same everyone could have the same treatment. now may be a treatment. now that may be a little negative, but does little bit negative, but it does bnng little bit negative, but it does bring home to us how common cancer is. and we i know we have friends currently treated friends being currently treated for cancer. this is a frightening time because the mere mention of the word just upsets people. and there'll be people watching this who who need the reassurance and love that they're going to get first class treatment in the way that the king is. yeah >> doctor lawrence, when you go in for some kind of procedure
9:25 pm
that we believe the king did for an enlarged prostate, common that we believe the king did for arit nlarged prostate, common that we believe the king did for arit thatjed prostate, common that we believe the king did for arit that they rostate, common that we believe the king did for arit that they then e, common that we believe the king did for arit that they then find common is it that they then find something else? could you just talk us through that procedure a little bit, please? talk us through that procedure a littiyeah, please? talk us through that procedure a littiyeah, well, e? talk us through that procedure a littiyeah, well, it’ talk us through that procedure a littiyeah, well, it would be >> yeah, well, it would be common for most people. >> i'm just surprised that the king doesn't have regular blood tests. and regular scans. um and so i'm slightly surprised that this was an incidental diagnosis . this, um. now, it may well be, um, as a result of a blood test or maybe he would have had a full body ct scan which has picked up something incidental, and i suspect it's one of those two. there's either a blood test or a ct scan. has found something else . um, it's something else. um, it's interesting that he's not going back for further surgery. he's being treated as an outpatient. i do have i or 2 ideas, but i just think it would be a little bit unprofessional at this stage to speculate because as i say, i've already got it wrong. once i've already got it wrong. once ihave i've already got it wrong. once i have i or 2 ideas as a sort of cancer he might have, and i just
9:26 pm
wish the palace would actually let us know. so i think that would be useful for us and for other with similar other people with similar conditions. just just, just quickly, again , quickly, doctor lawrence again, you know, you're you know, without you're obviously reluctant to name i >> -- >> and i m >> and i think you're right to do that. by the way, what do you think might in your think it might be in your professional but in professional opinion. but in relation to you think relation to what you think it might you think that the might be, do you think that the king a relatively good king has a relatively good chance of recovery in today's with modern medicine, etc. >> hope so. and even >> i would hope so. and even what cancer is what i mean, prostate cancer is actually one of the better ones to he hasn't got that. to have. but he hasn't got that. i would if it's one i would think that if it's one of the given his age, he's 75. many of the conditions that are more serious, you can live for ten, 15 years. so i think he's he's got plenty of mileage left in him. and hopefully it's been caught early. okay >> doctor lawrence girl is their private gp. thank you very very much. now we will welcome tonight's panel. we've got editor at large and royal scoop gets a mail on sunday. charlotte griffiths. we've got former bbc chief political correspondent
9:27 pm
john sergeant and former brexit party mep and certainly a proud patriot , party mep and certainly a proud patriot, belinda de party mep and certainly a proud patriot , belinda de lucy. thank patriot, belinda de lucy. thank you very , very much, john. how you very, very much, john. how serious do you think this is? >> well, i think it is serious. i had the same operation for enlarged prostate a year ago and i was surprised at the beginning when they said he might be in for three days and i thought, that's a bit odd . i remember at that's a bit odd. i remember at the first night thinking, oh, i want home. and they said, want to go home. and they said, look, for another look, just stay for another night. for whatever reason, night. now, for whatever reason, whether were doing tests whether they were doing tests but what the but not telling me what the results i then left on results were. but i then left on the the second night, i only the on the second night, i only had two nights and i was raring to go home and i when queen camilla came out and said that the king was doing his best, i thought, that's pretty. so he was in for three nights doing his best and i thought, well, that seems strange . and then you that seems strange. and then you realise that by being open, which was of course marvellous, highly praised. he's open about these things, more open than
9:28 pm
when his grandfather had lung cancer and died. king charles x, king sorry, king george vi people didn't know what it was. and of course this is strikingly different and impressive. but it does mean inevitably , the does mean inevitably, the speculation, because people think what sort of what form of cancer , what are his chances? cancer, what are his chances? all perfectly reasonable questions and all those, of course, i'm afraid encourage edged by this evening's statement . statement. >> yeah, indeed. charlotte, your views on the announcement today we know that william will obviously be stepping up to the plate massively. as stands , plate massively. as it stands, harry back. meghan harry is coming back. meghan is not be him. you'll not going to be with him. you'll take that . take on that. >> well, i think i think probably he's right to leave meghan behind. know for meghan behind. we don't know for certain come. certain she won't come. by the way, but omitted her name way, but they omitted her name so likely. and so it's pretty likely. and i think it's going to be difficult for william to be honest, because with harry around, of course going have to course he's going to have to talk harry. i mean, is talk to harry. i mean, this is a man he literally has not said a word to months and months word to for months and months and months. um, think and months. um, but i think it'll be very reassuring for charles to have harry there. and
9:29 pm
i think when cancer comes up in a family, do of forget a family, you do kind of forget those, arguments, those, those arguments, at least for time being. those will for the time being. those will all be aside. and i think all be set aside. and i think that it be a really good that it could be a really good moment. there could only moment. there could be the only silver is that could silver lining here is that could be a really good moment for their relationship a father their relationship as a father and but it will a and son, but it will be a tremendously difficult for william. >> linda, what do you think >> but linda, what do you think this for i think this means for britain? i think the health and success of the royal intrinsically royal family is intrinsically unked royal family is intrinsically linked and success linked to the health and success of nation, and this is of the nation, and this is devastating news. but what's your what this means your take on on what this means for britain is it moment for for britain is it a moment for us all come together? do you us to all come together? do you think again? >> oh, very so. you know, >> oh, very much so. you know, for me the royal family, the monarchy is physical monarchy is a physical embodiment it's embodiment of the flag. it's part of they're part of our national identity. it's like having flag walk among us having our flag walk among us and uniting us all against a great symbol. and i think for many, for millions, the royal families also somewhat of an extension of their own family when they're in pain, when they're suffering, we feel it more than say, you know, distant politicians. i think it's the
9:30 pm
envy of the world having a monarchy. and the reason i'm so protective the monarchy is protective of the monarchy is because a deep because i have a deep appreciation of how lucky we are having this ancient institution instead of a politician. and in instead of a politician. and in in the same thread you were talking about, charlotte in terms of cancer, bringing families together, father, terms of cancer, bringing fami hadn't jether, father, terms of cancer, bringing famihadn't spoken father, terms of cancer, bringing fami hadn't spoken to father, terms of cancer, bringing famihadn't spoken to his|er, terms of cancer, bringing famihadn't spoken to his twin who hadn't spoken to his twin for 30 years, they did not get on at all, got a phone call a few years ago, out of the blue from his twin, to call him up to and tell him he had prostate cancer to and go and check it. and my father did, and he did have prostate cancer. and that olive branch between the two twins after 30 years, actually brought them, you know, closer together and saved my father's life. wow >> i was really, really interesting story, actually, and something that hopefully , you something that hopefully, you know, this royal family now can come together result of this. jon, do you think mistake jon, do you think it's a mistake to queen didn't, to go public? the queen didn't, did she? >> yeah. i think it's very >> yeah. no, i think it's very difficult modern terms difficult in modern terms because people people, as because people are people, as i say, the moment you know he's going in, you want to know what
9:31 pm
it's about. and everyone is concerned. then particularly in charles's the king charles's case, because the king has waited for so long to be king. he's prepared for it. we've all been for prepared it in terms of the family , it's in terms of the family, it's very much something that this is why i think it touches everyone in so closely, because we know him. we've known him for years and years, and we've known how much it means. and years, and we've known how much it means . 17 months after much it means. 17 months after his coronation then told that he's stepping back from his pubuc he's stepping back from his public duties now we know that there'll be the boxes and the audience with the prime minister every week, but it's not the same. this is a this is a very worrying period. and he's they're saying that he's going to have a schedule of treatments . it's a treatment schedule which implies that he's going to be on drugs or something regularly. it's going to be very unhappy. period. >> no it is. >> no it is. >> well, i was going to say he's just he's worked so hard and we've all been praising him for a year for doing a great job and be working his socks off. and,

9:38 pm
about reaction about the media reaction and what expect going what we can expect going forward. but now the king's son, the duke of sussex, will be flying back to the uk in the coming days to visit his father and offer support. however, the office of the duke and duchess office of the duke and duchess of sussex have tonight confirmed to gb news that his to us here at gb news that his wife, meghan markle, will stay in states, leaving in the united states, leaving harry to travel alone. i'm delighted to be joined now by royal author and commentator lady campbell . lady c, lady colin campbell. lady c, thank you very much. to great see you. although of course it is depressing circumstances. see you. although of course it is dejdo.sing circumstances. see you. although of course it is dejdo you circumstances. see you. although of course it is dejdo you make nstances. see you. although of course it is dejdo you make nstharry. see you. although of course it is dejdo you make nstharry coming what do you make of harry coming home to his and home to see his father and brother ? brother? >> well, i don't think he's coming to see his brother, but i'm delighted to see that he's doing the decent thing and coming to see his father. and you know , i would say the only you know, i would say the only temptation for the family is to forgive and forget and don't. >> and not understand that leopards never change their spots . but leopards never change their spots. but i'm delighted leopards never change their spots . but i'm delighted that spots. but i'm delighted that meghan is coming, because that
9:39 pm
would have added a whole different awkward dimension to the whole situation. and as one of your men just said , you know, of your men just said, you know, a lot of this is stress related and i think the king can well do without any drama . without any drama. >> all right. i mean, i think it's obviously a good thing that harry is coming back. and surely this is an opportunity for reconciliation mean, reconciliation now. i mean, i think most people will absolutely prince harry absolutely agree. prince harry definitely doing the right thing here. if something can bring them together, it's them all together, surely it's this well , i them all together, surely it's this well, i think it is this lady c well, i think it is a good opportunity for improved relations . relations. >> i also speak from personal experience that the mistake people make in a situation like this is to think that a leopard changes its spot. leopards do not change their spots . as long not change their spots. as long as harry and meghan are together, there is no
9:40 pm
possibility of a genuine rapprochement . tom moore between rapprochement. tom moore between his family and him and his wife. so i think, though, that it will be a very nice thing for the king to have because the king has always said he loves harry and he would like to see that he and he would like to see that he and harry mend fences , and i'm and harry mend fences, and i'm delighted to see that harry is doing the decent thing. but the dangeris doing the decent thing. but the danger is to expect the leopard 2 change its spots. okay now, can we have a little word on camilla, please? >> because this will have rocked everybody behind the scenes. lady c won't it? and i mean, i know that you're aware of everything that goes on around the buckingham the corridors of buckingham palace , but what will be palace, but what will be happening with camilla now, do you think? >> well , of course you think? >> well, of course she's going to be worried , you know, but to be worried, you know, but they've caught it early and you know, it's an inadvertent catch
9:41 pm
and, and you know , as long as and, and you know, as long as you get good treatment, hopefully everything will be okay. i mean, these things are never 100% certain, but he he will have the very best medical treatment on earth. and hopefully everything is going to be okay. and of course, she's going to be worried. she loves him very much . him very much. >> okay. and look, what do you think about the fact that the king has gone public with this? there was the initial announcement that he was going in for treatment on an enlarged prostate. and then this announcement has announcement today that he has a form of cancer. what read form of cancer. what do you read into that? form of cancer. what do you read inthell? form of cancer. what do you read inthell , i'm trying to respect >> well, i'm trying to respect the fact that the king doesn't actually want anybody to know what the form of cancer is . i what the form of cancer is. i mean, as you might know , there mean, as you might know, there have been announcements made as to what it is not, but i would prefer not to be drawn on what
9:42 pm
it might be because, you know, it's an invasion of his privacy and as long as he doesn't want to reveal it, i think we should respect that. he has already revealed that he does have cancer and that it was caught during, uh, the investigation. with regard to his prostate. so i mean, if people add up to and two, they will come up with four or maybe even five, but they're not going to come up with 27. and you know, i think we just leave it at that. and and you know, i think the king will keep everybody abreast as and when it is necessary. and i think we should give him space. i mean, you know, the man is 70 something years old. he worked like a slave constantly and i think he's had the most awful time, not only in terms of having succeeded his mother, which he's done very well with.
9:43 pm
but, you know, he's had all of his stresses and dramas to do with harry and meghan, which have helped nobody at all. and hopefully harry and meghan will now take their their foot off that accelerator so that the car will not continue. >> well, hopefully, hopefully. >> well, hopefully, hopefully. >> ladies, see this is something that can bring be bring people together. like with many families in times of great adversity. i'm really grateful for you coming on tonight and adversity. i'm really grateful for y0|you�*ning on tonight and adversity. i'm really grateful for y0|you very, on tonight and adversity. i'm really grateful for y0|you very, very»night and adversity. i'm really grateful for y0|you very, very much.and adversity. i'm really grateful for y0|you very, very much. that thank you very, very much. that is colin campbell now is lady colin campbell now joining studio is joining me live in the studio is social and gb news social commentator and gb news regular albie amankona. now regular is albie amankona. now we thank good evening very we thank you. good evening very much. to you in the much. great to have you in the studio. now prince harry will be obviously coming back to visit the king without his wife or his two understand two children. as we understand it. saw you tweeted it. but i saw that you tweeted something branding something earlier on branding the between the ongoing separation between king charles his king charles and his two grandchildren. could you grandchildren. cruel. could you tell me a bit more on that, please? >> well, i think, like everyone in the country, i was shocked and to hear the news and saddened to hear the news about king charles ii earlier on today and his cancer diagnosis.
9:44 pm
and i commend being and i commend him for being pubuc and i commend him for being public hope it public about it, and i hope it does encourage men to be does encourage more men to be open about their health struggles. on point struggles. but on the point about coming, about prince harry coming, i think that is a good thing. it is absolutely a good thing. but i think it is cruel and wicked in a sense, for children, grandchildren to be separated from their grandparents for no apparent reason. and i would implore prince harry to be bringing along those two grandchildren who i'm sure the king loves very much. over to the united kingdom to get to know and love their grandfather, the king. prince archie and princess lilibet , it would seem princess lilibet, it would seem barely even know him and might not even remember him if they don't get the chance to meet him sooi'i. 500“. >> soon. >> and do you think that will be again another wonderful opportunity, really, for this reconciliation? it's important as well frame this in the as well to frame this in the tone of this. it's i think everyone wants reconciliation . everyone wants reconciliation. nobody kind of nobody is enjoying the kind of division and hatred and the division and the hatred and the disagreement that we've seen spill everywhere in the spill out everywhere in the royal family at the moment. and
9:45 pm
it something that comes up it is something that comes up time comes up time and time again and comes up time and time again and comes up time time again in the gb time and time again in the gb views well. i will views inbox as well. i will go to that shortly, which is about surely, surely prince harry's kids to get to know the kids have got to get to know the king at some point. >> well, speaking from a personal experience, patrick, one important one of the most important relationships in my life has been the relationships that i have with my two living grandparents , yao and elizabeth. grandparents, yao and elizabeth. >> one of them 87, the other well into their 90s now, and i think it has been such a privilege and an honour to know them when know there are them when i know that there are so other people who never so many other people who never got the chance to meet their grandparents were got the chance to meet their gralongernts were got the chance to meet their gra longer with were got the chance to meet their gra longer with them were got the chance to meet their gra longer with them when were got the chance to meet their gra longer with them when theye no longer with them when they were alive, and with prince archie princess lilibet . archie and princess lilibet. they grandparents that are they have grandparents that are alive, but they're not in touch with them, and i just can't help but that that is but feel that that is desperately sad . and i really do desperately sad. and i really do hope that this can be a chance for reconciliation and i really do hope that prince arch and princess lilibet get know princess lilibet can get to know their in the united their family here in the united kingdom. we? kingdom. are we? >> you very, very much. >> thank you very, very much. really on the

9:49 pm
it's patrick christys tonight. we are only on gb news as we've been hearing already. the nation, of course, is reeling from the news tonight that king charles has been
9:50 pm
diagnosed with a form of cancer. but some just can't help themselves taking cheap themselves from taking a cheap shot monarch. with shot at the monarch. with academic lisa academic and broadcaster lisa mackenzie writing what an insult to all of us that the king can get an immediate diagnosis and treatment for cancer. while people sit and suffer on nhs waiting lists for years . i'm waiting lists for years. i'm joined now by the former editor of the sun, kelvin mackenzie. kelvin what do you make of this? is, by the way, doing the rounds a lot on social media at the moment. >> it's what you'd expect rather than rather, you know, revolting people having a view. >> the most important person, the continuum of power in our country has been the royal family and honestly, we all love the queen and bizarrely, now we all love charles and we love his queen. it's a very strange. there are a percentage, and one of the great things about free speech is that these horrible people can have this view, but they don't represent anything. and like doing, they and what they like doing, they know well if they know full well that if they tweet or whatsapp it, they tweet it or whatsapp it, they know that their minority view
9:51 pm
will get publicity. so so anyway, nobody takes it right that we have a hierarchy. >> you know, this is the thing for me. when you look at any kind of nature documentary whatsoever, there a hierarchy whatsoever, there is a hierarchy in kingdom. now. in the animal kingdom. now. people might loathe it about humans, have a hierarchy. humans, but we have a hierarchy. the king right at the top of the king is right at the top of that. he should be getting, should he not? the best care, even better care even if that means better care than else. why do we than anybody else. why do we have to level down for the king? >> oh yes. no, i totally agree. and him. and and we want him. and the alternative having king alternative to not having king charles being right up there charles and being right up there is actually a president heseltine . or in the old days of heseltine. or in the old days of president prescott . we don't president prescott. we don't want that. right. what we like, we like, it works nice. how much is that worth to us as a country, as a tourist attraction 7 country, as a tourist attraction ? it's worth billions to us. so you know, when there is a serious issue like this actually the country i have a i have a kind of a stepdaughter who's like 26, 27, she's quite shocked
9:52 pm
about all this , and i think so. about all this, and i think so. i think it transcends generations . generations. >> all right. can i just ask you, with your fleet street cap on now, the fact that he's gone public, this is a feeding frenzy for the british press, is it not less, actually, strangely less so than it would have been 30 or 40 years ago. >> because what would have happened 30 or 40 years ago is that that the journalists would have identified wide awake, cancerous and published that cancerous is and published that and that would have been part of the kind of tabloid culture you do that today without the permission of the people involved, right? you will suffer a huge commercial effect . and a huge commercial effect. and so, for instance , princess kate, so, for instance, princess kate, nobody has ever said, actually, this is what this is. and they don't do it because people would stop either reading their news digests or reading their papers. the world has changed. yeah yeah, the world has changed. >> definitely. i mean, back in the day, they'd go into the
9:53 pm
hospital and, well, they were there. >> i mean, the sun, they used to have a i used to hang up a white coat there and whenever any big story involved a hospital was on, the reporter would put on the old coat and the the old white coat and the stethoscope, and they'd down stethoscope, and they'd be down outside hospital outside king's college hospital before around. before he could turn around. it's remarkable things have it's remarkable how things have changed, calvin, politicians >> now look, calvin, politicians have been reacting to this news rishi sunak wishing his majesty a full and speedy recovery. sir keir sending his keir starmer also sending his good on good wishes to the monarch on behalf labour party and behalf of the labour party and the made it across the the news has made it across the pond. kelvin, because, writing on social media platform on his social media platform today, truth donald today, truth social, donald trump king trump said all in caps. king charles . he is charles has cancer. he is a wonderful man got to know wonderful man who i got to know well my presidency. we well during my presidency. we all he has a fast and all pray that he has a fast and full recovery. and asked about the king's cancer diagnosis dunng the king's cancer diagnosis during vegas. here during a trip to las vegas. here is biden had to is what joe biden had to say. the president i'm concerned about him. >> just heard his diagnosis , but >> just heard his diagnosis, but i'll be talking to him, god willing, calvin, i'll be talking to him , god willing, says biden. to him, god willing, says biden. >> what do you make of that? >> what do you make of that? >> well, unrwa fortunately , mr

9:55 pm
strange decision, because all it doesisit strange decision, because all it does is it continues to focus the spotlight on the difficulties. there aren't a lot of members of the royal family who can fill in for charles. and, you know , they're going to and, you know, they're going to have to deal with it. so instead of the after all, charles wanted to reduce the size of the royal family. actually we may not have enough open various things. enough to open various things. >> exactly. calvin , >> yeah, exactly. look, calvin, thank very much. that thank you very, very much. that is of the sun, is the former editor of the sun, kelvin mackenzie now royal is the former editor of the sun, kelvin and

10:06 pm
at home to be with his father, the king. prince william is understood, always, is the understood, as always, is the case is in constant contact with his father as well. the king is still well enough, we're told, to carry out constitutional dufies to carry out constitutional duties going through those government's boxes and government's red boxes and signing official government's papers and attending privy council meetings, and his meeting with the prime minister that happens every week, buckingham palace are really keen that they don't want lots of people speculating about the diagnosis, real diagnosis, but it's a real balancing for buckingham balancing act for buckingham palace hand, palace because on the one hand, the king is a private individual who has a right to have medical details on the other, details private. on the other, he's is he's head of state and it is a legitimate public interest that we should know about the king's diagnosis course, it diagnosis of course, it emphasises the fragility of the slimmed down monarchy. we've now got the princess of got the king and the princess of wales of action for some wales out of action for some time. the king will not doing time. the king will not be doing pubuc public engagements for quite some time, but he remains positive . we're told by positive. we're told by buckingham evening buckingham palace this evening and is looking forward to returning to public as returning to public duties as soon possible . soon as possible. >> thank you very much. that's cameron there. our royal cameron walker there. our royal correspondent buckingham
10:07 pm
cameron walker there. our royal correspforient buckingham cameron walker there. our royal correspfor us. buckingham cameron walker there. our royal correspfor us. look, buckingham cameron walker there. our royal correspfor us. look, joining ingham cameron walker there. our royal correspfor us. look, joining me|am palace for us. look, joining me now the news that now to react to the news that the king has cancer is the former director of the world health cancer health organisation's cancer program, professor karol sikora . program, professor karol sikora. professor, thank very much professor, thank you very much for tremendous to forjoining us. tremendous to have the show. what do have you on the show. what do you make of what we've been told so professional opinion? >> well, it's a bit of a medical puzzle, as you know. he goes into hospital nearly two weeks ago benign condition of ago with a benign condition of the prostate. clearly, something's found, something's been found, whether it's biopsy, it's been found in the biopsy, that's likely thing. that's the most likely thing. when the tissue is removed from the prostate to essentially decode the outlet of the bladder and that's been sent for pathology. it takes about ten days get the result because days to get the result because it requires special staining. some cases molecular analysis. and that's come back and it's obviously showing cancer. the likely sites could be bladder or it could be in the lymph nodes around that area . we just don't around that area. we just don't know the good news for the king for and all of us is that clearly they have done tests to look and see if there was any
10:08 pm
involvement of the liver, lungs and bones before they did the surgery anyway, just routinely, everyone would get the same on the nhs. no problem . um, and uh, the nhs. no problem. um, and uh, clearly it was negative before. so it is, as we've heard said, a problem for the palace. how open to be when maybe no one's really sure at the moment. more tests may be needed and certainly some sort of treatment is going to be needed. i suspect radio therapy is being planned because that is something that the palace have put out as well, saying that he is going to avoid and postpone pubuc is going to avoid and postpone public facing duties. >> what do you read into that ? >> what do you read into that? >> what do you read into that? >> i suspect he's going to have a course of treatment. probably as i say, radiotherapy to somewhere in the pelvis down the bottom there, the bladder and the chances of success are high. >> you know, as you get older and i'm the same age as the king, uh, the cancer tends to grow more slowly. it's a puzzle . grow more slowly. it's a puzzle. we don't know why, but it grows
10:09 pm
more slowly. and, you know , the more slowly. and, you know, the chances of having a normal life span are great. >> i think he'll do well. >> i think he'll do well. >> he's a great believer in openness, as we've seen . i think openness, as we've seen. i think the problem at the moment is not hiding anything. >> it's just uncertain what's happening. >> and i'm sure clarity will come over the weekend and okay. >> all right . do you come over the weekend and okay. >> all right. do you think the chances of success are relatively high and you think just looking at what we know so far in your professional opinion, does look as though opinion, does it look as though they probably have caught something quite early here? i mean, it obviously mean, it was obviously unexpected, mean, it was obviously une it»ected, mean, it was obviously une it was d, mean, it was obviously une it was completely unexpected. >> it was completely unexpected. >> it was completely unexpected. >> so that suggests that it has been caught early. if it is a small bladder tumour , for small bladder tumour, for example, could be relatively example, it could be relatively minor treatment. it's difficult to give a prognosis an outcome without knowing all the details. it's very difficult for doctors all the time. >> we're facing these decisions and patients are very good about it. >> what's great about the king is it's. and the palace, how they're handling it is they brought it out into the open,
10:10 pm
which is great for all the cancer patients all around the country. >> yes, indeed. what do you make of him going public with it, then? do you think that this is likely that it will make other people checked? people get checked? how important mean, every important is that? i mean, every single really, single family really, unfortunately, uk is at unfortunately, in the uk is at some point touched by that horrible hand cancer. horrible hand of cancer. >> absolutely. know, when i >> absolutely. you know, when i started years started in oncology, many years ago, we didn't tell people that cancen ago, we didn't tell people that cancer, we had all sorts of lies that we told them about cysts, about infections. that's all gone. and what the king's doing is bringing it right out into the open . and that can only be the open. and that can only be for everybody's good. it helps to treat someone if you're being honest with them, to hide information from one family member and not others is very confusing for everybody . confusing for everybody. >> can i just ask you how important will family medical history be here? you know, when you go in for a kind of procedure, very they say procedure, very often they say to what's your family to you, look, what's your family history? presumably could history? that presumably could have led to form of check have led to some form of check for king charles that maybe otherwise wouldn't have been done. we are .
10:11 pm
done. and here we are. >> about 10% of cancer has a family background. there's something in the genetics of the family that's resulted in the cancer. family that's resulted in the cancer . as we go forward with cancer. as we go forward with all the dna analysis that's going on, we'll work out much more precisely what your risk is. >> patrick. and you know, we'll work out everybody's risk . but work out everybody's risk. but at the moment it's sort of in its infancy. so all we can look at is what family history you have of cancer . at is what family history you have of cancer. but i think it's important that everything is done openly because if you don't know, your granddad had cancer , know, your granddad had cancer, you're not going to realise that there inherited there could be an inherited pattern could change for pattern that could change for the better. the way that you're treated. absolutely >> look, carol, thank you very, very much. that is professor karol sikora there. he's the former director the world former director of the world health cancer health organisation's cancer program really program with some really fascinating insight there. i'm going to get the thoughts of my panel now. we've got editor at large the on sunday, large at the mail on sunday, charlotte griffiths, we've got former bbc chief political correspondent and correspondent john sergeant and former mep belinda former brexit party mep belinda de lucy. belinda, can start de lucy. belinda, can i start with this is with you? actually, this is something absolutely
10:12 pm
with you? actually, this is somethiroff absolutely with you? actually, this is somethiroff in absolutely with you? actually, this is somethiroff in my absolutely with you? actually, this is somethiroff in my inbothely with you? actually, this is somethiroff in my inbox atly with you? actually, this is somethiroff in my inbox at the popping off in my inbox at the moment, which is about some of the, i think it's fair to say, vile comments about, oh, it's all for king. he gets all right for the king. he gets to private. he gets best to go private. he gets the best medical the rest of us medical care, the rest of us were languishing on the nhs . were languishing on the nhs. what do you make of that? >> ah, i just i think it's quite cruel. mean, to start cruel. i mean, to start attacking someone who's just announced cancer. announced they have cancer. anyway very sad. but anyway i think is very sad. but also i don't have private health insurance. i use the nhs. i'm not envious or angry or hateful towards those who can. i wish them well. you know, they're they're not taking up a bed in they're not taking up a bed in the ward that i may, may use. i think all wishes for anyone who has cancer all over the world right now should just be good wishes, not this jealous, envious anger that it seems to trigger. and by the way, republicans have had day. republicans have had their day. patrick, these angry anti —royalists, patrick, these angry anti—royalists, peaked anti—royalists, you know, peaked on of january, 1649 on the 30th of january, 1649 when beheaded king charles when they beheaded king charles and the british people weren't having any of it. they rejected it and allowed ii to it and allowed charles ii to come in because we love our come back in because we love our royal this country.
10:13 pm
royal family in this country. >> now, john, do think >> yeah. now, john, do you think that potentially charles that potentially king charles backed himself into a bit of a corner here by initially saying he was going in for a benign, enlarged prostate? >> think that the >> well, i think that is the problem. know, once you problem. you know, that once you start saying it's not this, it's that. and we're all fine. it's going well. but we all know that when something like this happens , they can find other things. so there's always an element of doubt. there's always an element of doubt . and there's even, of doubt. and there's even, of course, now an element of doubt as to how how well he will get on with his treatment. so although everyone says, oh, you know, don't speculate, you know, that's all wrong. people are bound to speculate and people are bound to make comparisons with own lives. but that's with their own lives. but that's the of the royal family the strength of the royal family that feel. we know that people do feel. we know this man. we know about families. we've got our own families. we've got our own families to compare with, and people often do that in a very good way . so you can't sort of good way. so you can't sort of you can't have it both ways, saying, oh, he must be treated like a private individual. he's never been treated.
10:14 pm
>> but in your time cover, i mean, in your time covering royal news and there's been a heck of a lot of it. i mean, we were talking a bit air about were talking a bit off air about you were you were covering the evening of diana's death, for example. you we've evening of diana's death, for examjreally you we've evening of diana's death, for examjreally seen you we've evening of diana's death, for examjreally seen anyone e've never really seen anyone come out about medical out publicly about medical conditions the royal family, conditions in the royal family, have we? >> like this. and of >> no, not like this. and of course, it. it's course, it's it. it's marvellous. you know, at one level, is sort of this is level, this is sort of this is grown up sovereignty, isn't it? grown saying, look, grown up behaviour saying, look, i've serious. i've got this, it's serious. it can rather than can be treated rather than treating cancer as a kind of awful, sort of dreadful sort of word. it like saying don't word. isn't it like saying don't go there because they've got go in there because they've got cancer , you know, this is , cancer, you know, and this is, after all, where, where diana was so good, you know, going into hospitals and the whole idea here that that we should be so terrified and it's sort of voodoo curse , you know, don't voodoo curse, you know, don't talk to that person because they've got cancer . well, so they've got cancer. well, so it's very important for, for the king to make it clear that, no, he's not going to do that. >> charlotte, what will this mean for the royal family in
10:15 pm
terms of them coming together? now? that harry is now? we know that harry is flying meghan and the flying back. meghan and the children, as we understand it, are him. there was are not with him. there was actually quite a lot of controversy previous controversy in the previous houn controversy in the previous hour. people saying, look, why doesn't he bring the grandkids with know, it not with him? you know, is it not fair that these children should have relationship have some form of relationship with no. with our king? no. >> think mean, i think >> and i think i mean, i think he probably will bring the grandchildren over, but we should that should be worried if that happens. know what i happens. do you know what i mean? because i think if there's a point where meghan and the grandchildren a point where meghan and the gra know.dren a point where meghan and the gra know that he does like to we know that he does like to keep them in america and keep them away, you know, it them away, um, you know, it might something really might mean something really serious on. so i think serious is going on. so i think we should actually be kind of relieved if she does stay behind. know, he'll behind. um, but, you know, he'll behind. um, but, you know, he'll be to see his grandkids. be dying to see his grandkids. he's a real softie at prince charles. he actually really loves grandchildren. like, loves his grandchildren. like, genuinely, loves genuinely, you know, he loves playing he loves playing with them. he loves being grandchildren. being around his grandchildren. it's you it's times like this when you think actually really sad think it's actually really sad he doesn't know them that well. >> indeed. and i'm >> yeah. no, indeed. and i'm just now because just going to play now because we about earlier on and we went out about earlier on and we went out about earlier on and we were speaking ordinary we were speaking to ordinary members british

10:36 pm
whereabouts. the police are issuing quite strong statements about the idea that people might be . i'm also going to be hiding him. i'm also going to be hiding him. i'm also going to be discussing with my panel as well. question the well. serious question about the role of england role that the church of england is asylum system. is playing in our asylum system. are they responsible for helping asylum seekers get into britain to stay in britain or create asylum claims while they're actually in britain as well ? actually in britain as well? look, i'm going to go to that right now actually. and belinda, i will start with you, belinda de lucy joins us on the panel. when it comes to the church of england and the that they england and the role that they are allegedly with are allegedly playing with our asylum big for asylum claims. the big issue for me is that you can be an asylum seeker in britain. you can have your turned down your asylum claim turned down once and then you once or twice and then once you convert christianity , you can convert to christianity, you can create claim whilst create an asylum claim whilst you're here and the church of england is helping people with that, aren't they? >> so what i would say, although i am disappointed at the church of if they do have a of england, if they do have a role in facilitating bogus, uh, asylum claims with this quick
10:37 pm
conversion, it is the government that's in power and in charge. it is the home office. they are only working within the laws. so if the law is that you can convert to christianity or suddenly you're gay after suddenly say you're gay after arriving and saying you're not, that the problem that needs that is the problem that needs to be cut down there is to be cut down and there is nothing christian whatsoever about coming about prioritising men coming from the safety of france. when we a limited of funds we have a limited pot of funds over women and children in un camps, there's something deeply immoral unchristian at how immoral and unchristian at how our system is being our asylum system is being abused. but i do not put full responsibility of the church of england is on the heads of england. it is on the heads of the conservative government, 100. they've chosen to chain us to out—of—date , dangerous to bad, out—of—date, dangerous human law but allow all human rights law but allow all this, i mean, so a bishop has now attacked suella braverman. >> this is the news that's just landing front of here. landing in front of me here. a bishop has attacked. not physically. braverman. physically. suella braverman. that'll it? that'll be a story, wouldn't it? she church of she said that the church of england fuelling england were fuelling fake asylum yesterday asylum claims. well, yesterday the former home secretary said that during her tenure she became aware of churches around the country facilitating
10:38 pm
industrial scale bogus asylum claims . charlotte, i was reading claims. charlotte, i was reading earlier on because actually i was going to originally lead the show with with this story , but show with with this story, but i've got a scoop that i'm going to make you wait for tomorrow for. but part of was around for. but part of it was around europe going as far back as 2016, when they were seeing even mass baptisms of people from muslim countries on the continent . and you think there's continent. and you think there's a certain naivety here? surely when it comes to certain religious figures across the continent, i think that people really are seriously converting to christianity for any reason other than to try and stay in europe, think. europe, i think. >> well, think you're being >> well, i think you're being very generous to say naivete, because clearly that's a red flag. if you're suddenly baptising loads of muslims, basically it's exactly what it is. and it reminds me a little bit of when do you remember when, um, men were coming over and being taught in classrooms because they were saying they were children, they had were children, but they had beards men. i beards and they were men. but i have say, we didn't really have to say, we didn't really attack teachers blame attack the teachers and blame the moment. and the teachers at that moment. and maybe we should be a bit
10:39 pm
cautious suddenly blame cautious to suddenly blame bishops. but surely you raise a red flag, you know, and being wilfully naive is not ideal. you need to sort of flag it with someone when you're having these claims, surely. >> um, john, do you think that claims, surely. >> archbishopio you think that claims, surely. >> archbishop just,| think that claims, surely. >> archbishop just, uh. nk that claims, surely. >> archbishop just, uh. justint the archbishop just, uh. justin welby should be speaking out about this? yeah, i would strongly recommend a suspension for the approval of some of these asylum claims in relation to the liverpool maternity bomber who had converted to christianity after a couple of failed attempts . now, this failed attempts. now, this alleged attacker , who alleged clapham attacker, who again is believed to have converted to christianity after a of times, can they a couple of times, can they really be about people really be sure about the people they're vouching for? i mean, if this business and this was any business and something was going this badly wrong, suspend wrong, you would suspend proceedings, you look proceedings, you would look into it sure it it, you would make sure it didn't happen again. >> with that. >> no, i agree with that. i mean, i think that it's obviously if you're an asylum seeker, on. had seeker, you're on. they've had the barge, you the people on the barge, you know, in in know, the, the barge in in dorset. yeah. and apparently 20 of them are applying to become christian. yeah. well, it's not surprising because they know perfectly they're
10:40 pm
perfectly well if they're from afghanistan this will mean afghanistan, that this will mean that they cannot sent to that they cannot be sent back to afghanistan . they might not be afghanistan. they might not be anyway, but say , oh, by the anyway, but to say, oh, by the way, i've just converted to christianity. will christianity. we will, i will i be okay afghanistan ? i mean, be okay in afghanistan? i mean, you think, wait a minute. this whole thing is completely a lot of them are saying they're from iran well. of them are saying they're from irarand nell. of them are saying they're from irarand they can they prove >> and they can they can prove that in iran, obviously, christians badly well. particularly badly as well. i would people to watch would just urge people to watch this space when it comes to this show, have a big show, because i do have a big scoop this , uh, for tomorrow. scoop on this, uh, for tomorrow. we were originally do we were originally going to do it tonight. i'm sure most people can we were overtaken can understand we were overtaken some events, we some more by events, and we didn't want story to get didn't want that story to get lost about lost in all of the news about the but another aspect the king. but but another aspect of is the missing, the king. but but another aspect of remarkablyhe missing, the king. but but another aspect of remarkably missingng, the king. but but another aspect of remarkably missing abdul still remarkably missing abdul ezedl still remarkably missing abdul ezedi, who's believed to be responsible chemical responsible for this chemical attack has left a woman attack that has left a woman with life changing injuries, believed to be the loss of at least one eye. he obviously has been walking through london, at least in part anyway. uh, with, uh, you know, the issue with his face there as well. um, belinda , face there as well. um, belinda, i'll start with you. the police
10:41 pm
have now slapped a £20,000 reward offered to the public for information here. a man has been arrested and since bailed. who allegedly helping this guy, allegedly was helping this guy, abdul azad . do you think he's abdul azad. do you think he's getting help ? i suspect this is getting help? i suspect this is the story that's going to come in the days ahead , which i think in the days ahead, which i think will be a massive scandal as well. if this guy is getting help from certain people to stay hidden . hidden. >> i really worry if that's the case, i find it. i find it quite scary. i think it's dangerous to have a huge number of men coming from very misogynistic cultures , from very misogynistic cultures, uh, deeply violent , uh, cultures uh, deeply violent, uh, cultures that treat women very badly. we have bad eggs here already , have bad eggs here already, don't get me wrong. but to encourage them to come over here by allowing . i think he came by allowing. i think he came over on a bus on a lorry , sorry, over on a bus on a lorry, sorry, lorry on a lorry. he should have been deported immediately. whether afghanistan whether afghan is afghanistan is safe care . they safe or not, i don't care. they we have to have a deportation mechanism protects the and mechanism that protects the and women of this country, especially . i think it would be especially. i think it would be very sad if he's having help,
10:42 pm
but i wouldn't be surprised because are because some communities are much stronger in terms of culture. >> yeah. i mean, i think one of the is because don't the problems is because we don't know where he is, it's possible. all are possible. it may all things are possible. it may be attacked by be he's been attacked by somebody. been killed somebody. maybe he's been killed . he's committed suicide. . maybe he's committed suicide. i , i'm sorry. i mean, i've i mean, i'm sorry. i mean, i've got no evidence for this. i don't the impression that i don't give the impression that i know. that's where know. no, but that's where you've to be very careful in you've got to be very careful in a situation like just a situation like this. just coming to too many conclusions before we know. >> i mean, yeah, look , what we >> i mean, yeah, look, what we do know is that he's not been caught found. right? and caught or found. right? and i think the met have serious questions well questions to answer as well about why they not about why did they not immediately release whatever pictures that they had of this guy?i pictures that they had of this guy? i refuse to believe that had public, the wider public had the public, the wider public money was getting on and off pubuc money was getting on and off public transport, he was walking around if they didn't public transport, he was walking aroun immediatelyiey didn't public transport, he was walking aroun immediately who idn't public transport, he was walking aroun immediately who this guy know immediately who this guy was, you know, surely, surely we could have snared him by now. but this space when but again, watch this space when it the very latest on it comes to the very latest on this that's from this story. that's it from our panel now. we're going back panel for now. we're going back to little bit later on. to them a little bit later on. but as prince harry

10:48 pm
take a lot of time to repair your reputation and your relationship based on, you know, the damage and the hurt that's been done. um, but i don't think a medical emergency should, should be the basis for the mending of a of a relationship. that's that's bad . that's that's bad. >> um, i mean , a lot of people >> um, i mean, a lot of people will be thinking that it's absolute right for harry to come back.i absolute right for harry to come back. i think that i think it is undeniably. and harry is doing the there. think the right thing there. i think some be fair as well, some people, to be fair as well, will think it's absolutely right that does that meghan markle does stay where she maybe where she is and that she maybe takes and takes care of lilibet and archie. the only issue maybe that i would have with that as some people have raised already tonight it's what tonight on this show, it's what kind do lilibet kind of relationship do lilibet and really have with and archie really have with their grandfather, king charles? and this will be an and maybe this will be an opportunity for them to actually see think? see him. what do you think? >> a very good >> well, that's a very good point. um, rightly so. right. rightly so . um, every rightly so. um, every grandfather should be able to see his grandchildren, including my father . he should be able to my father. he should be able to see his grandchildren, um, and to to hold them back. is
10:49 pm
to hold to hold them back. is the worst thing you can do to a family . it's the worst thing you can do to a family. it's like the worst thing you can do to a family . it's like you're you're family. it's like you're you're driving wedges in between a relationship that should just you know, should be there . you know, should be there. >> i know that your father has unfortunately had a few health issues as well . and harry and issues as well. and harry and meghan, i don't think were particularly involved there. were they ? were they? >> i know . um, there were they? >> i know. um, there was were they? >> i know . um, there was there >> i know. um, there was there was no contact after his heart attack a few years ago and there was no contact, no calls after a stroke. uh, a couple of years ago. and that that's just not right, because everything should be set aside when it comes to a family emergency. and that's that's the top priority no matter what you have going on or or are or what your differences are and, and for them not to reach out or do anything , it's see out or do anything, it's see that's going to be hard to repair . that's going to be hard to repair. that's sincerely. i mean , how how would you how would you sell that ? you sell that? >> um, do you think there is any chance of reparation there ?
10:50 pm
