Ed O'Neill's 'Modern Family' Role Was Almost Played By This Actor

Princess Margaret once gave her sister the Queen a dressing down in front of the Prime Minister by claiming “nobody would talk” to her if she was not the reigning monarch, according to a royal author.Her Majesty was in a private meeting with a Prime Minister, who has not been named, and was interrupted by Margaret storming into the Queen’s drawing room in Windsor Castle.Margaret had reportedly been frustrated over dropping in the line of succession and was therefore seeing her role in the Royal Family decrease when it seemed to boil over in an outburst.According to Andrew Morton, author of Elizabeth and Margaret: The Intimate World of the Windsor Sisters, he believes that the Queen’s sister had “jealousy” but was also “loyal”.However, that did not stop Margaret from telling the Queen her thoughts in front of one of the most important people in Britain.

BBC’s Garden Rescue have criticised a “nightmare” makeover, where a couple’s outside space was transformed into a mediterranean-style patio for £6000.The episode was originally broadcast in June last year, but a replay was shown on Tuesday night (February 8).At the start of the programme, Ben and Shelley explained that they hated their current patio, and described how they wanted a larger area to sit and have food on sunny days.The couple then outlined their plans for a mediterranean landscape in their suburban garden, hoping to mimic scenes in Italy and France.And, with two small daughters, the pair were also hoping for an area that suited their children’s outdoor play requirements.So, with a sizable budget of £6000, expectations were high for what the Rich brothers could produce.However, when the final reveal came around at the end of the programme, viewers were shocked.Pictures showed a slightly barren courtyard, with various planted trees and plants, and the grassy area reduced by over half its initial size.One Twitter user didn’t hold back, suggesting: “That has to be the most awful garden ever… just what the kids need; not to be able to run around in a pathetic stony waste of a garden.”Another commented: “That’s a nightmare garden #gardenrescue - too much going on and too much growing out of the gravel.”Despite the outcry on social media, Ben and Shelley appeared to be pleased when they were shown the finished product.“Wow… I cannot believe you did this,” Ben said.Shelley agreed, observing: “It’s beautiful, look at the apple tree, and the boulders.
