Prince Philip, known for his gaffe-prone remarks, asked a sea cadet whether she works at a strip club, a media report said Friday.

The Duke of Edinburgh was inspecting cadets in Exeter and asked 24-year-old barmaid Elizabeth Rendle what she did for a living, Daily Express reported.

'I told him I worked in a club.

'He then asked if it was a strip club. Then he said it's a bit too cold today anyway,' Rendle was quoted as saying.

She, however, added: 'He was just putting people at ease.'

The Sun reported that in 1986 he told a group of British students in China: 'If you stay here much longer, you'll all be slitty-eyed'.

Prince Philip asked a driving instructor in Scotland in 1995: 'How do you keep the natives off the booze long enough to get them through the test?'

During a tour of Australia in 2002 he asked an Aborigine if they still threw spears at each other.
