“I just don’t think there’s any excuse for him not to attend this memorial.”
Ruth Langsford cut in: “But he says he doesn’t feel safe.”
Carol replied: “What’s he talking about? The whole Royal Family is going to be there, do you think there will not be any kind of protection?
“What makes him so special? Why does he think there’s more of a threat to him if he’s there to the rest of his family?”
Carol continued: “I’m just so bored of him and his excuses, it’s not good enough.
“And he’s not doing himself any favours at all by not going. It’s just going to make him look worse.
“Everyone says, ‘stop slagging them off’ but what do you expect?”
Nadia Sawalha then chimed in, asking: “The thing is, what if he is very scared?
“He’s removed himself from official royal duties but they are supposed to have security from cradle to grave, that’s the actual saying.
“The risk to them is no less.”
What did viewers say?
Viewers felt divided over the debate, with many criticising Carol.
One person said on Twitter: “Wish Carol would [bleep]… Harry can’t win, people moan they are bored & he should go away, and next breath moaning he isn’t returning to the UK.”
Another wrote: “Never mind about the PTSD he may have from his mother’s death then Carol.”

Another said: “Carol is right Harry is just a petulant child.”
