An guy from Colorado has taken out a full page ad in the London Times to argue that he is the rightful King of England, and he will soon return to the UK to resume his place on the throne. The basis of his argument is that he is the direct descendant of some Welsh King from 1700 years ago.

I'm afraid he might be a bit too late, scobienz. The rightful descendant was living on a farm in Australia, last I heard. Tony Robinson presented a programme that tracked him down. True, though, that QE2 is descended from a line of illegitimate monarchs.
Having said that, it would be great if all the descendants of b******s would lay claim. Someone once calculated that a high percentage of British people descend from King John.
