Description

There is no doubt that the British royal family is THE most famous family in the world. Watched and picked over in the media for everything from fashion choices to baby bumps, sporting achievements to nightclub preferences, there doesnt seem to be a moment when they can escape public scrutiny. But, somehow, they still manage to maintain a sense of humour and its those flashes of fun and brilliance that this book celebrates. From Prince Philips gaffe-prone remarks (most of which appear ON camera rather than off) to the in jokes shared by the knowing smiles of the younger royals and the Queens wickedly dry and often bitingly funny remarks; from Prince Charless asides to the Duchess of Cornwall to the self-deprecating smile of the Duchess of Cambridge and the belly laughs that appeal to Prince Harry. This book presents the other side of royal protocol and perhaps gives a glimpse of the real lives of this much-loved clan.
