Dyer recently said finding out he is related to royalty was a “complete surprise”. The actor featuring on the BBC’s genealogy programme Who Do You Think You Are? late last year, on which his family tree was traced back to Edward III, Thomas Cromwell and William The Conqueror.

“Basically, I am royalty,” he told Alan Carr. “I am royalty. Royalty that’s gone wrong, ain’t I? That’s what happened. I’m fucking royal.”

Dyer continued: “Edward III, Thomas Cromwell all the way back to William The Conqueror, and the geezer that built Westminster Abbey, but I can’t remember his fucking name! He is important though – proper geezer.”

Asked if he was aware of the connections before, he responded: “No, I didn’t have a clue. It was a complete surprise. I still don’t believe it now. I thought they were winding me up to be honest with you, but I am in line to the throne.

“And it got depressing first. There was a dead baby involved and all that. I don’t want to bring the party down, and then all of a sudden I’m bowling about at Hampton Court Palace giving it the big one. I couldn’t believe it.”

Dyer added: “What the fucking hell went wrong?”
