IF ONLY WE HAD A MONARCHY WE WOULDN'T BE IN THIS MESS:

Harry told his interviewee that if he used long pauses between answers he would probably get "the face".

Mr Obama said: "Do I have to speak faster because I'm a slow speaker?"

Harry replied: "No, no, not at all."

Smiling cheekily, Mr Obama then said: "Do I need a British accent?"

Harry quipped back: "If you start using long pauses between the answers, you'll probably going to get the face."

Laughing, Mr Obama said: "Let me see the face."

When Harry showed him what he meant and adopted a stern expression, Mr Obama said: "I don't want to see that face."

Harry later said: "You're excited about this and I'm nervous about it, that's what's quite funny."

Mr Obama replied: "It's fun. I'll interview you if you want."

The prince responded laughing: "No, no, let's keep it this way I'd much prefer that."
