Got to get your priorities right, d’ye see? The Torygraph reports on a pretender to the throne:
Hall, 33, was a former Shropshire police inspector who
had served as an ambulance driver at the front in the First World War
and been victim of a poison gas attack at Ypres.
He
maintained that he was descended in a direct male line from Henry VIII,
apparently through a secret son born to Anne Boleyn before she became
the second of his six wives.
He regarded James I as an imposter and he was scornful of the claims to the throne of George V and his German ancestors.
The last line?
His wife Ethel divorced him in 1938 for desertion and he died in 1947, leaving no male heir.
