The Andrew formerly known as Prince (was: Jeffrey Epstein thread)

Pizza Express is our go-to meal out. Very veggie and vogon friendly amongst other things.

A friendly vogon?

[San Bernardhinault]

So it’s like a Pizzeria Uno in Braintree?

Yes. I think that’s about right.

When I go out to eat I want someone to bring me my food and drink. I don't want to face a series of challenges to get my own food to the table. Nandos can fuck right off.

[San Bernardhinault]

Nando’s is great. And can also make you sweat like Prince Andrew if you order too hot.

[San Bernardhinault]

Yeah. Pizza Express would be Bertucci’s or CPK here. Two steps up from Pizza Hut. One up from Olive Garden or Applebees.

[Lang Spoon]

I hate the combo of McDonalds and sit down restaurant, the whole order at the counter served at the table weirdness.

[Evariste Euler Gauss]

Nowhere but Nandos is Nandos, thank God. Fucking weird place.

Maybe to make himself seem normal and one of the people. Also Woking is a strange location too.

Isn't it nearish Windsor?

[Antepli Ejderha]

Pizza Express is both a popular chain but also a cut above most popular chains. It's the restaurant equivalent of smart casual

Nandos it ain't.

I’m trying to imagine why they picked Pizza Express.

It is a truly horrible alibi, all the more so for there being nothing to corroborate it, notwithstanding the paper and other trail created whenever a member of the hoi polloi visits such an establishment.

Which is why his lawyers are filing challenges to jurisdiction and other procedural motions with all of their might (each one of which somehow magically gets major media attention in the UK).

I haven’t been paying attention to the story and got the idea that he’d liaised with one of Epstein’s intermediaries at the Woking Pizza Express. That would make more sense.

[Evariste Euler Gauss]

I totally missed that part of the story.
Do princes usually hang out at chain pizza places?

HP. the Pizza Express Woking alibi featured quite prominently in Andrew's car-crash interview with the brilliant Newsnight journalist/presenter Emily Maitlis, along with other outlandish claims such as his "inability to sweat". It has provoked much ribaldry in the media and online, e.g. in the pages and pages of customer reviews left on the Tripadvisor page for Pizza Express Woking.

That gambit is their defence for putting her brother on.

Funny how the need for such "balance" never occurred to them after the trial of the "Rotherham Grooming Gang" or any other prominent convictions for sex trafficking.

I don’t know. I haven’t seen the BBC in years. But I know that TV news is kinda bullshit because it’s driven by the “guests.”

Ex-controller of BBC2?

Vic Reeves' real name.

Vic reeves.

I misread that as "Jim Moir" and was very disappointed for a moment.

Jan Moir has gone for "If Greta Thunberg can make a decision to campaign for climate change at age 15, why can't these girls have made the decision about their bodies at just a year less?".

(sorry)

Not a problem, lots of movement on this thread today.

“He probably just got mixed up and thought his local Pizza Express was the Lolita Express.”
