A billboard for Prince Andrew: The Musical has been installed outside of the Woking branch of Pizza Express, according to reports.

The band said in a statement that the song aimed to “re-open the conversation around [the Queen’s] son Prince Andrew’s conduct at this time when the establishment appear to want it swept under the carpet”. “The story of Prince Andrew is tragedy and farce rolled into one, so why not add ‘musical’ for good measure?” Hodgson said in a statement. Prince Andrew: The Musical is described as a “satirical send-up” and will feature seven original songs. He added: “Going to Pizza Express in Woking is an unusual thing for me to do, a very unusual thing for me to do.

“However,” it adds, “he remains: duke of York, a counsellor of state and eighth in line to the throne.” It feels slightly wrong to be playing it merely for laughs, as if the Queen’s favourite son merely went slightly too far with his shenanigans this time. The characterisations, apart from Hodgson’s as the Duke of York, are oddly inaccurate, coming as they do from someone normally so brilliant at giving us the essence of a thing.
