It
isn’t often that cinema goers are more shocked by an audience member rather than
the blood and guts of a Rambo movie playing out on the big screen.
However, Prince William managed to provoke more than a few double takes as
he made a surprise appearance at a cinema in Shropshire earlier this week.
Enjoying a night away from RAF Shrewsbury, where he’s training to earn his
wings ahead of a passing out ceremony in April, the future king walked into Cineworld
and took his seat alongside other customers on a quiet Tuesday night.
According to Spencer Owen, operations manager at the cinema in Old Potts Way,
staff originally thought that 'Prince William' was a look-a-like....that is
until the real thing felt the need to hand over a card bearing his name to prove that, yes, he really is Prince William Arthur Philip Louise of Wales.
It's not quite the reaction "papa" and "granny" receive whenever they walk into the cinema for a royal premiere of the latest blockbuster movie.
Comment: I think Blood Diamond is a much better movie than Rambo.

If I ever land up in his grocery trolley I will try my best to look normal, and glum. Assuming I don't fall over after I courtesy.

Comment: Appears both William and Harry are trying so hard to lead a so called normal life and as much as they try it will be an impossibility, also brings to mind again that unless there is somethng we arent hearing about that although they are in the armed forces seem to not have a goal or are doing chaaritable work making publc appearances as part of the monarchy their whole effort seems to try to be normal.

Comment: Exploora, if you ever end up in his grocery trolley, remember that you are not permitted to smile. It seems to be a no-no for woman in his presence. Lol!!

Comment: That is where I went to school in England for 2 years, Shrewsbury.
It is sort of sad he can't go anywhere without people staring at him.
Though I must confess, after a while life in Shrewsbury can get dull. It was probably incredibly thrilling for people to even wonder if it was him, let alone realizing it actually was him.
Of course he is only a mere mortal...but I wouldn't mind going for a right in his grocery trolly...
