Duke of Marmalade said:Yep. He came across as arrogant, sleazy and with a body language that sreamed "liar". If any proof, such as the infamous pictures, should ever come to light he is finished.
Who on earth advised him to do such an interview at this stage, and even worse, allowed such a pitiful presentation of a Head of State. Now the hole that he has been digging since the first "interview" at the Hunting Lodge is even deeper than before. If you give an interview on the subject, either do it right and are well prepared in order to clear the case or keep your mouth shut.
The King chooses his own advisors, I think. It might have been his own idea. He should have been prepared for this interview.
If I were his advisor, I would say:
If all the accusations are completely false, say so directly and forcefully and leave open the possibility of suing.
If they are true, admit it as honestly as possible rather than wait for details to surface bit by bit. The sex scandals wouldn't necessarily finish him though I'd feel sorry for the Queen. His alleged associations could leave him vulnerable go blackmail, though, which is a bigger concern.
