It looks at a varity of issues including: How does one get a job as personal footman to the Queen? Why does Prince Charles still have to send a note to her Page of the Backstairs requesting a meeting with his mother? How much do members of the household earn? Why does the Queen hate men in three-piece suits? Why are the Queens bedsheets six inches longer than Prince Philips? Why do her maids have to vacuum walking backwards? Why doesnt the Queen allow square ice-cubes to be put in her drinks? Подробнее
