Another opportunity to say how much one misses the dignified reporting from the old Pathe news reels. To include the intelligible speaking of the “Kings English” with an educated understanding of the English language . Something to be proud of and neither derided nor denied. Imo

If only they would have good meetings like this today.

Greetings from her cousin , who is also her husband's uncle - yes time have changed!

[@robertthomson1587]

Her 2nd cousin, once removed. Not particularly close.

[@sirwelch9991]

​@@faye3861Not really.

[@deaconthoresson-rw8hv]

Well almost everyone who is married to eachother are cousins in the royal family in those years ( a example let's say a female duchess wants to marry ( her parents wants her to marry a rich man and not a poor man ( poor =a stranger who is not related to the royal family ,,rich man = a cousin in the royal family 😂

I read the film was a bit boring, with no explosive revelations.....
