I've no idea if the rumour is true, sir. Is it on Twitter and the like?

Based on past form, no. It does not even sound plausible: why would they need to wait till five?

"A friend just told me that the Duke of Edinburgh had passed away but there is a press blackout until 5"

I'd just take it as rumours, and these rumours seem to have started by a string of local newspaper websites publishing a story about what happens when the Duke does pass away.

Sky do not have a scooby. I swictched to BBC and The prime Minister is defending the lying Chief Whip! mazing!

Will be really interesting if anything happens at 5pm!

How could the Prime Minister defend a liar with news due at 5pm. If the rumour is true she shirley must be toast!

If he died during the night, the news would not be released on the bbc until 8am, so it's possible.

not being funny but why delay till 5? I mean who really cares?

Probably because people will be out of work at that time, listening to the radio etc, so they'd get massive publicity

Sounds disgusting saying that but I wouldn't put it past them

I have taken a dislike to the Gaffer, like many " Royals " who have nothing but contempt for the rest of us! I think the Queen is great and that is as far as I will go!

Buckingham Palace has quashed rumours swirling worldwide about the health of Prince Philip.

"You could safely assume the Queen and Prince Philip are not dead," a palace press officer told a TVNZ reporter this afternoon.

Also, a Buckingham Palace official has told The Associated Press that a meeting of royal household staff has been called, but that there is "no cause for concern".

The official, who spoke to the AP only on condition of anonymity, said household meetings are called from time to time.
