They lead a very private life. They have a boat and do a lot of sailing, especially around the coast of Scotland. They've stayed at little B&Bs and expected no special treatment.

Yes, they like to go lighthouse-spotting together. I came across this really interesting Tatler article while checking my facts!

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/10/2018 13:58

Great article. Anne is fab and I think out of all HM's children, she'd make the best monarch.

She also rewears outfits she first wore 30 years ago - which is a testament to her diet and exercise regime!

Isn't APB supposed to be the inspiration for Jilly Cooper's Rupert Campbell-Black?

I'm going to pretend you never said that. You can go off people you know!

There's been some continental royal wedding but I can't say I care for the bride's dress. Some very erm, unusual outfits on the guests too - that top hat???

The bride and groom Grin. They need a proper wedding photographer to style them properly rather than a bystander with an iPhone.

Clionba · 01/10/2018 17:51

That's a lovely tiara, but would look better set back a little. I love the lily of the valley posy, it's really pretty. Some of these European royal families convince me that "slimming down" is the way to go!

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/10/2018 18:28

The tiara is nice and the veil and dress look lovely from the back but not the front. Those weird boob flaps!

I read that Samantha Markle was on the Jeremy /Vile Kyle show .
Does anyone know when it was?

Paradyning · 01/10/2018 18:38

I was going to comment on her poor tiara hair and tiara placement too but thought that was a heel step too far Grin

Paradyning · 01/10/2018 18:38

Heel ffs. Geek step too far!

What is the name of the prog on the Royals that was on last week and is it on this week? Can't find it in the listings..

ajandjjmum · 01/10/2018 19:03

Queen of the World?

Paradyning · 01/10/2018 19:03

Queen of the World?

owlshooting · 01/10/2018 19:09

Thank you! What channel and what time? Can't find it in any of the TV listings!

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/10/2018 19:33

It's itv tomorrow. Last weeks ep should be on their player.

I enjoyed it. Nothing particularly new, but some good footage and I liked Princess Anne.

Butterymuffin · 01/10/2018 19:41

Is Eugenie's wedding definitely going to be televised? I didn't get a ticket in the ballot, but I have flex time I could use that day if it's going to be on.

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/10/2018 19:51

Anne was great, wasn't she @Clionba? Completely spot on with what she said about selfies!

OP posts:
Clionba · 01/10/2018 19:55

Yes! So right about the selfies. Just looking at a sea of phones and ipads in the crowd. She's always so direct.

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/10/2018 20:25

I've always got the feeling that she's the DoE's favourite child as she's most like him (but with more tact). So with Andrew HM's favourite, maybe that leaves Charles feeling resentful. And poor Edward seems resigned to being an afterthought!

'poor Edward' Smile and Sophie were in Dublin during the week meeting the Irish President and his wife.
That went under my radar.
Compared with the Megan and Harry frenzy when they visited in the summer.

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/10/2018 20:33

He and Sophie do a lot of engagements, far more than the Cambridges or Sussexes, but get very little attention for it. I guess that lack the glam factor, although she's upped her game in recent years.

Just marking place really .Thank you for the thread, the pics and everything people. I will be watching for the wedding outfits with interest, but wish they had just quietly got on with it.

MissLingoss · 01/10/2018 20:34

....maybe that leaves Charles feeling resentful.

I think Charles was the one who was closest to the QM, out of all the Queen's children, wasn't he?
