Maybe this'll be like a reverse Diana moment.
Pre-death, everyone thought she was a useless bimbo. Then she carked and suddenly became an angel. QEII, on the other hand, was widely respected and admired even by many republicans. Maybe now she's dead, her reputation will plummet and we'll end up with her corpse dangling from the turrets at Balmoral by tomorrow.

We all have different ideas of when it’s the best time to make fun of a public figure who’s died.

We all have our own "Dead Princess Diana" jokes, but I got into a lot of trouble for what I did,
which was to do a whole stand-up comedy routine consisting entirely of Dead Diana jokes,
five minutes after the crash.
