Correction, the royal family does not "run" our country, parliament does, the oldest parliamentary democracy in the world. I can't believe that people follow Trump on twitter either.

The royal family are just there for the tourists and to sponge.
It's actually been proven with DNA that the bloodline to the thrown actually goes to a family in Australia so strictly speaking they shouldn't even hold the position. Oh, and I also have never heard of this channel. And I won't be looking for it either.

Did not even know The Royal Family Channel Existed. Now that I do, I have not rushed to access it. Enough said?

they are the worst spongers in Britain. they are something from the past that just doesn't belong here now. the kings and queens did use to rule and even head into battles but they do fuck all but shake hands and open new buildings now for an unbelievable amount. they are the most seen, most coveted but least known about inbreds we have and don't need.

I've lived in the UK my entire life, but I've never even heard of that channel. However, I'm the sort of Brit who thinks "FFS! It's the 21st Century - why do we still have these medieval throwbacks!" whenever I see any royal in the news.

There are people in Britain that love the roya family. Im not one of them. I don't read our tabloid newspapers but im pretty sure the royals feature in them probably every day. So it doesnt suprise me that there is a channel devoted to stories about them. There are channels devoted to pretty much everything else.
What makes royal descent suited to running a country? Nothing in my opinion but equally they don't run the country. Our country, like yours, is run by politicians on behalf of big business. The Royals are just another form of celebrity used to distract us
