Royal Servants: In Their Own Words
Royal Servants: In Their Own Words
The royal family have always tried to project an immaculate image, but this documentary reveals what goes on behind closed doors. Stories from the household's staff include a cook revealing the Queen's surprisingly simple favourite treat and a footman of the Queen Mother recounting his most embarrassing gaffe, involving wine and Princess Margaret. Also, historian Kate Williams examines some of the most bizarre and shocking servant duties from ancient times
Royal Servants: In Their Own Words airs on 5 at 4:55 PM, Saturday 17 May. (Subtitles, repeat.)
