God Save The Quing expected to be sung until after coronation

Decades of singing God Save The Queen at big international matches has left experienced English football fans struggling to switch to convincingly singing God Save The King, with the result that for this World Cup it’ll be a rousing chorus of God Save The Quing heard in stadiums.

Football fans who also play Scrabble are finding the transition easier because they know that Quing is not a valid Scrabble word. The rest of the fans are expected to need at least six months and a ruddy big ceremony about the King being the King until they can make the mental switch to singing about a male monarch.

Meanwhile, despairing Manchester United fans will continue to sing God Save The Keane until the Apocalypse.

Charles III going straight to cable

Expectations are low for the sequel to the sequel of Charles. The Newsbiscuit Culture Editor explains: “Look, Charles 1 was your classic, ballsy action movie, plenty of war scenes and an ending like Brave Heart. Definitely one to please the crowds, or at least anyone not dead by the end of it.

Charles 2 was not quite as ambitious plot-wise but defied the usual problem of sequels being a let-down, by adding a strong romantic aspect. I mean Chuck 2 had it Going On… was it 12 illegitimate kids by the curtain? Most viewers gave up counting half way through.

So what can Charles 3 bring to this franchise? At this stage, none of the above. It’s going to have to be something completely different. A man with three buttocks? He’s got some big underpants to fill.”
