US TV Alert: Monarchy: The Royal Family at Work
November 12th, 2008 | Posted in: General, The Queen
US network PBS will tonight air the first episode of Monarchy: The Royal Family at Work. Check local listings.
In the year of her 80th birthday, Queen Elizabeth II granted filmmakers an exclusive look inside the modern British monarchy. Join Queen Elizabeth and the rest of the royal family as they travel abroad, work at the palace, and meet people from all walks of life. Take a glimpse behind the velvet curtain and see what life is really like as a member of the family firm.
Visitors from other parts of the world can still check out preview videos of each episode on the PBS website.
The 5 part series is also available as a 2-DVD Set from Amazon.com (click the pic for details)

IMO, it was not very good, not worth buying.
Which parts of it didn’t you like PH?
I watched the series on TV earlier this year and thought it was quite a good documentary…
BRW,
I was ONLY referring to last night’s episode (1 of 5 parts) which was focused on the Queen’s visit to Virginia, William and Mary College, and the White House. Maybe it was the commentary provided by President Bush, countless chiefs and maids that turned me off.
I will have to weigh my opinions about the other four parts to determine if the whole is worth purchasing.
