This year’s Royal Variety Performance was the first to take place since Queen Elizabeth II passed away on September 8, 2022, but host Lee Mack's risky gag about late Prince Philip has proved that it may be too soon to joke about the members of the Royal family who have passed away.

As Lee got stuck into hosting duties while performing a comedy routine, it seemed that one joke about Prince Philip left a sour taste in some ITV viewers mouths.
