Investigating into today’s power structure in the UK and the role played by the British monarchy, this eye-opening documentary reveals the grossly disproportionate and undemocratic wealth and power of Britain’s Royal Family.
The programmer educates the viewers about the sheer wealth of Britain’s unelected monarchy and trails through the various assets and sources of income to which a random family, born into a historic mesh of multiracial kings and queens, unfairly believe they are entitled.
The UK with its dark and scattered history of political struggles has become the playground of monarchic power and influence. The documentary exposes all the main instruments of wealth of the British monarchy and provides clear commentary as to why Britain may be the most contradictory democracy in the world.

The worst monarchs in British history. The united kingdom has witnessed some pretty terrible and ruthless monarchs and rulers over the years. To be fair a kingdom with a history as long and turbulent as Britain's is bound to have had its fair share of incompetent kings and queens. Whilst some of these people have been pure evil, others have just been useless due to mental illness or general incompetence. From the tyrant Tudor King Henry Viii who took six wives, to the truly evil King John who lost most of his territories in France, we're counting down 5 of UK’s worst and most useless kings and queens / monarchs.

William, Catherine and Harry joined The Queen and Prince Philip at Buckingham Palace to mark King Felipe VI and his wife Queen Letizia's royal visit to the UK.
The Duchess of Cambridge dazzled in Princess Diana 's signature tiara and a necklace borrowed from The Queen last night as Britain rolled out the red carpet for the Spanish state visit.
Kate and William joined The Queen and Prince Philip as they host King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain for a glittering State Banquet at Buckingham Palace.
It was just the sixth time Kate has worn a tiara and the third time she has chosen the pearl and diamond Cambridge Lover's Knot, which was given to Diana as a wedding present from The Queen in 1981.
The Duchess teamed the glittering headpiece with a dress by Marchesa and a dazzling necklace belonging to The Queen - the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Bandeau Necklace, a V shaped diamond and ruby collar ending in a diamond drop pendant.
The Cambridge Lover's Knot tiara was made by royal jewellers Garrard in 1914 for Queen Mary and passed down through royal generations.
It was allegedly so heavy that it gave Diana headaches, however she wore it several times.
After her death it was kept in a safe until it was given to Kate, who has worn it twice before - at the annual Buckingham Palace diplomatic reception in 2015 and 2016.
Kate also wore Princess Diana's Collingwood Pearl and Diamond Earrings.
Glamorous Queen Letizia, in her third outfit of the day, was also wearing a tiara and a full-length evening gown. Letizia also wore an impressive diamond tiara, which was a wedding present from King Alfonso XIII to his wife Princess Victoria Eugenie, who became Queen Ena of Spain - the great-grandmother of Felipe and also an ancestor of Elizabeth II. Kate is often seen as the more conservative dresser of the two with Letizia's sartorial choices considered more daring. But the Duchess's Marchesa gown featured flamboyant cuffs and a low lace V-shaped neckline at the front and back. Known for championing Spanish couturiers such as Felipe Varela and Lorenzo Caprile, Letizia supports high street chains Zara and Mango. Kate is a fan of British labels including Alexander McQueen and Jenny Packham, as well as high street labels Whistles and LK Bennett. At 35, the Duchess is nearly a decade younger than 44-year-old Letizia. Both have two children. Letizia and Felipe have two girls, 11-year-old Leonor and 10-year-old Sofia, while Kate and William have Prince George, nearly four, and two-year-old Princess Charlotte. Crown Prince Felipe's relationship with former journalist Letizia was conducted in complete secrecy until their surprise engagement was announced in 2003. Letizia Ortiz Rocasolano was already a household name - a well-recognised television presenter and award-winning reporter who covered events such as the Iraq War and 9/11. She had worked at various newspapers, as well at Bloomberg, CNN+ and Spain's state TV company Television Espanola.
The daughter of a journalist and a nurse, and the granddaughter of a taxi driver, she first met the prince at a colleague's dinner party in 2002.
The fact that she was also a divorcee led to criticism from hardline monarchists - Letizia wed a teacher in a civil ceremony 1998. Their marriage lasted just one year.
But the journalist-turned-royal bride - who became Queen consort at Felipe's side in 2014 - has proved popular with the public for her down-to-earth approach.
During her engagement photocall, she made headlines when she told Felipe in public to shut up. "Let me finish," she said, smiling, in front of the cameras.
Kate worked as a part-time accessories buyer for Jigsaw Junior, run by friends of her family, and then worked at her parents' firm Party Pieces.
She shot to fame because of her relationship with William, whom she met at university and dated for some eight years before they wed in 2011.
Kate has a mix of middle and working class heritage, descended from a family of solicitors and landed gentry on her father's side and butchers, plasterers, road sweepers and domestic servants on her mother's.
Charles and Camilla were also at the State Banquet having welcomed the Spanish couple earlier in the day. Camilla looked regal in a cream Bruce Oldfield gown, a sash with the Dame Grand Cross of the Victoria Order and a Queen's Family Order brooch given to her by The Queen on her 60th Birthday
The royals were all smiles at the grand State Visit, the highest form of diplomatic contact between Sovereign states, which it is hoped will nurture relations between the two countries as Britain prepares to leave the EU.
However, behind the gilded veneer were concerns about simmering tensions over Brexit negotiations and the thorny issue of Gibraltar's sovereignty (July 12, 2017)

Edward inherited the throne when he was only nine, his quest to change England was to tear apart his family and his country.
Written and presented by Dr David Starkey, this is the compelling story of two of England's most striking monarchs: a brother and sister, tied by blood and affection, and torn apart by religion, power, and some of the bloodiest episodes in English history. Mary (who was to become England's first reigning Queen since Matilda but who is best known to generations of British schoolchildren as Bloody Mary) was the first born child of Henry VIII. For 20 years she was heir to her adored father. Then came the birth of her little half-brother Edward, and Mary found herself cast into the shadows, ignored by her father and declared illegitimate by Act of Parliament. Nonetheless she became very attached to the motherless boy, and he to her, declaring her his dearest sister. When Edward was just nine, their father died and the young boy became King, surrounded by advisors and further distanced from his beloved elder sister. But by now they were divided not just by power and status, but also by faith. Mary was a staunch Catholic, Edward a reforming Protestant: at this time such matters were not an issue of personal choice but matters of life or death, treason or heresy. Within a few years Mary was under virtual house arrest and banned from celebrating mass; within a few more years Edward was dead at the tragically early age of 16 and Mary became Queen. She set about making England a Catholic country once more and hundreds of Protestants, including Edward's most trusted advisors, were burnt at the stake because they refused to renounce their faith.

Monarchy of the United Kingdom
The monarchy of the United Kingdom, commonly referred to as the British monarchy, is the constitutional monarchy of the United Kingdom and its overseas territories. The monarch's title is "King" (male) or "Queen" (female). The current monarch and head of state, Queen Elizabeth II, ascended the throne on the death of her father, King George VI, on 6 February 1952.
The monarch and his or her immediate family undertake various official, ceremonial, diplomatic and representational duties. As the monarchy is constitutional, the monarch is limited to non-partisan functions such as bestowing honours and appointing the Prime Minister. The monarch is, by tradition, commander-in-chief of the British Armed Forces. Though the ultimate formal executive authority over the government of the United Kingdom is still by and through the monarch's royal prerogative, these powers may only be used according to laws enacted in Parliament and, in practice, within the constraints of convention and precedent.

Royal family
A royal family is the immediate family of a king or queen regnant, and sometimes his or her extended family. The term imperial family appropriately describes the family of an emperor or empress, while the terms ducal family, grand ducal family or princely family are more appropriate to describe the relatives of a reigning duke, grand duke, or prince. However, in common parlance members of any family which reigns by hereditary right are often referred to as royalty or "royals." It is also customary in some circles to refer to the extended relations of a deposed monarch and his or her descendants as a royal family. A dynasty is sometimes referred to as "the House of ...". As of July 2013, there are 26 active sovereign monarchies in the world who rule or reign over 43 countries in all.
Members of a royal family
A royal family typically includes the spouse of the reigning monarch, surviving spouses of a deceased monarch, the children, grandchildren, brothers, sisters, and paternal cousins of the reigning monarch, as well as their spouses. In some cases, royal family membership may extend to great grandchildren and more distant descendants of a monarch. In certain monarchies where voluntary abdication is the norm, such as the Netherlands, a royal family may also include one or more former monarchs. There is often a distinction between persons of the blood royal and those that marry into the royal family. In certain instances, such as in Canada, the royal family is defined by who holds the styles Majesty and Royal Highness. Under most systems, only persons in the first category are dynasts, that is, potential successors to the throne (unless the member of the latter category is also in line to the throne in their own right, a frequent occurrence in royal families which frequently intermarry). This is not always observed; some monarchies have operated by the principle of jure uxoris.

The Royal
The Royal is a British medical drama series produced by ITV that ran from 2003 to 2011. The show comprised one-hour episodes which were normally first aired on ITV in the Sunday early evening slot.
The title of the series refers to the fictional "St Aidan's Royal Free Hospital", located in Elsinby, a fictional rural seaside town, portrayed as being close to Aidensfield, the fictional setting of the UK TV series Heartbeat. The series was shot in Whitby and Scarborough, in the North Riding of Yorkshire. The Royal is an NHS hospital serving the local town, countryside and visitors. The show was set in the 1960s. It began as a spin-off from another popular ITV show set in North Yorkshire, Heartbeat.
Stars of the show included Ian Carmichael, Wendy Craig, Robert Daws, and Amy Robbins. The last episode of the show aired at 7.00 pm on Sunday, 31 July 2011 on ITV.
Overview
The Royal was introduced in the 14th episode of the 12th series of Heartbeat entitled 'Out Of The Blue' and The Royal benefited from this connection to the extremely popular parent series; several Heartbeat characters appeared in the first couple of series of The Royal, most notably Bill Maynard as a bed-ridden Claude Greengrass, but as the series progressed it generally dropped its character crossovers with Heartbeat to become its own entity.

After her death it was kept in a safe until it was given to Kate, who has worn it twice before - at the annual Buckingham Palace diplomatic reception in 2015 and 2016. Kate also wore Princess Diana's Collingwood Pearl and Diamond Earrings. Glamorous Queen Letizia, in her third outfit of the day, was also wearing a tiara and a full-length evening gown. Letizia also wore an impressive diamond tiara, which was a wedding present from King Alfonso XIII to his wife Princess Victoria Eugenie, who became Queen Ena of Spain - the great-grandmother of Felipe and also an ancestor of Elizabeth II. Kate is often seen as the more conservative dresser of the two with Letizia's sartorial choices considered more daring. But the Duchess's Marchesa gown featured flamboyant cuffs and a low lace V-shaped neckline at the front and back. Known for championing Spanish couturiers such as Felipe Varela and Lorenzo Caprile, Letizia supports high street chains Zara and Mango. Kate is a fan of British labels including Alexander McQueen and Jenny Packham, as well as high street labels Whistles and LK Bennett. At 35, the Duchess is nearly a decade younger than 44-year-old Letizia. Both have two children. Letizia and Felipe have two girls, 11-year-old Leonor and 10-year-old Sofia, while Kate and William have Prince George, nearly four, and two-year-old Princess Charlotte. Crown Prince Felipe's relationship with former journalist Letizia was conducted in complete secrecy until their surprise engagement was announced in 2003. Letizia Ortiz Rocasolano was already a household name - a well-recognised television presenter and award-winning reporter who covered events such as the Iraq War and 9/11. She had worked at various newspapers, as well at Bloomberg, CNN+ and Spain's state TV company Television Espanola. The daughter of a journalist and a nurse, and the granddaughter of a taxi driver, she first met the prince at a colleague's dinner party in 2002. The fact that she was also a divorcee led to criticism from hardline monarchists - Letizia wed a teacher in a civil ceremony 1998. Their marriage lasted just one year. But the journalist-turned-royal bride - who became Queen consort at Felipe's side in 2014 - has proved popular with the public for her down-to-earth approach. During her engagement photocall, she made headlines when she told Felipe in public to shut up. "Let me finish," she said, smiling, in front of the cameras. Kate worked as a part-time accessories buyer for Jigsaw Junior, run by friends of her family, and then worked at her parents' firm Party Pieces. She shot to fame because of her relationship with William, whom she met at university and dated for some eight years before they wed in 2011. Kate has a mix of middle and working class heritage, descended from a family of solicitors and landed gentry on her father's side and butchers, plasterers, road sweepers and domestic servants on her mother's. Charles and Camilla were also at the State Banquet having welcomed the Spanish couple earlier in the day. Camilla looked regal in a cream Bruce Oldfield gown, a sash with the Dame Grand Cross of the Victoria Order and a Queen's Family Order brooch given to her by The Queen on her 60th Birthday The royals were all smiles at the grand State Visit, the highest form of diplomatic contact between Sovereign states, which it is hoped will nurture relations between the two countries as Britain prepares to leave the EU. However, behind the gilded veneer were concerns about simmering tensions over Brexit negotiations and the thorny issue of Gibraltar's sovereignty (July 12, 2017) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE_hLN0nt2G3z7dQGSktiLA/videos -
47:39Edward VI - The Boy King (British Monarchy Documentary) | Timeline
Edward VI - The Boy King (British Monarchy Documentary) | TimelineEdward VI - The Boy King (British Monarchy Documentary) | Timeline
Edward inherited the throne when he was only nine, his quest to change England was to tear apart his family and his country. Written and presented by Dr David Starkey, this is the compelling story of two of England's most striking monarchs: a brother and sister, tied by blood and affection, and torn apart by religion, power, and some of the bloodiest episodes in English history. Mary (who was to become England's first reigning Queen since Matilda but who is best known to generations of British schoolchildren as Bloody Mary) was the first born child of Henry VIII. For 20 years she was heir to her adored father. Then came the birth of her little half-brother Edward, and Mary found herself cast into the shadows, ignored by her father and declared illegitimate by Act of Parliament. Nonetheless she became very attached to the motherless boy, and he to her, declaring her his dearest sister. When Edward was just nine, their father died and the young boy became King, surrounded by advisors and further distanced from his beloved elder sister. But by now they were divided not just by power and status, but also by faith. Mary was a staunch Catholic, Edward a reforming Protestant: at this time such matters were not an issue of personal choice but matters of life or death, treason or heresy. Within a few years Mary was under virtual house arrest and banned from celebrating mass; within a few more years Edward was dead at the tragically early age of 16 and Mary became Queen. She set about making England a Catholic country once more and hundreds of Protestants, including Edward's most trusted advisors, were burnt at the stake because they refused to renounce their faith.

The Power behind the Throne (The position of power occupied by the Royal Family in today’s UK)
Investigating into today’s power structure in the UK and the role played by the British monarchy, this eye-opening documentary reveals the grossly disproportionate and undemocratic wealth and power of Britain’s Royal Family. The programmer educates the viewers about the sheer wealth of Britain’s unelected monarchy and trails through the various assets and sources of income to which a random family, born into a historic mesh of multiracial kings and queens, unfairly believe they are entitled. The UK with its dark and scattered history of political struggles has become the playground of monarchic power and influence. The documentary exposes all the main instruments of wealth of the British monarchy and provides clear commentary as to why Britain may be the most contradictory democracy in...

5 worst British Monarchs
The worst monarchs in British history. The united kingdom has witnessed some pretty terrible and ruthless monarchs and rulers over the years. To be fair a kingdom with a history as long and turbulent as Britain's is bound to have had its fair share of incompetent kings and queens. Whilst some of these people have been pure evil, others have just been useless due to mental illness or general incompetence. From the tyrant Tudor King Henry Viii who took six wives, to the truly evil King John who lost most of his territories in France, we're counting down 5 of UK’s worst and most useless kings and queens / monarchs.

Investigating into today’s power structure in the UK and the role played by the British monarchy, this eye-opening documentary reveals the grossly disproportionate and undemocratic wealth and power of Britain’s Royal Family.
The programmer educates the viewers about the sheer wealth of Britain’s unelected monarchy and trails through the various assets and sources of income to which a random family, born into a historic mesh of multiracial kings and queens, unfairly believe they are entitled.
The UK with its dark and scattered history of political struggles has become the playground of monarchic power and influence. The documentary exposes all the main instruments of wealth of the British monarchy and provides clear commentary as to why Britain may be the most contradictory democracy in the world.

The worst monarchs in British history. The united kingdom has witnessed some pretty terrible and ruthless monarchs and rulers over the years. To be fair a kingdom with a history as long and turbulent as Britain's is bound to have had its fair share of incompetent kings and queens. Whilst some of these people have been pure evil, others have just been useless due to mental illness or general incompetence. From the tyrant Tudor King Henry Viii who took six wives, to the truly evil King John who lost most of his territories in France, we're counting down 5 of UK’s worst and most useless kings and queens / monarchs.

The Royal Family attend a State Banquet at Buckingham Palace of the Spanish State Visit

...
William, Catherine and Harry joined The Queen and Prince Philip at Buckingham Palace to mark King Felipe VI and his wife Queen Letizia's royal visit to the UK.
The Duchess of Cambridge dazzled in Princess Diana 's signature tiara and a necklace borrowed from The Queen last night as Britain rolled out the red carpet for the Spanish state visit.
Kate and William joined The Queen and Prince Philip as they host King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain for a glittering State Banquet at Buckingham Palace.
It was just the sixth time Kate has worn a tiara and the third time she has chosen the pearl and diamond Cambridge Lover's Knot, which was given to Diana as a wedding present from The Queen in 1981.
The Duchess teamed the glittering headpiece with a dress by Marchesa and a dazzling necklace belonging to The Queen - the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Bandeau Necklace, a V shaped diamond and ruby collar ending in a diamond drop pendant.
The Cambridge Lover's Knot tiara was made by royal jewellers Garrard in 1914 for Queen Mary and passed down through royal generations.
It was allegedly so heavy that it gave Diana headaches, however she wore it several times.
After her death it was kept in a safe until it was given to Kate, who has worn it twice before - at the annual Buckingham Palace diplomatic reception in 2015 and 2016.
Kate also wore Princess Diana's Collingwood Pearl and Diamond Earrings.
Glamorous Queen Letizia, in her third outfit of the day, was also wearing a tiara and a full-length evening gown. Letizia also wore an impressive diamond tiara, which was a wedding present from King Alfonso XIII to his wife Princess Victoria Eugenie, who became Queen Ena of Spain - the great-grandmother of Felipe and also an ancestor of Elizabeth II. Kate is often seen as the more conservative dresser of the two with Letizia's sartorial choices considered more daring. But the Duchess's Marchesa gown featured flamboyant cuffs and a low lace V-shaped neckline at the front and back. Known for championing Spanish couturiers such as Felipe Varela and Lorenzo Caprile, Letizia supports high street chains Zara and Mango. Kate is a fan of British labels including Alexander McQueen and Jenny Packham, as well as high street labels Whistles and LK Bennett. At 35, the Duchess is nearly a decade younger than 44-year-old Letizia. Both have two children. Letizia and Felipe have two girls, 11-year-old Leonor and 10-year-old Sofia, while Kate and William have Prince George, nearly four, and two-year-old Princess Charlotte. Crown Prince Felipe's relationship with former journalist Letizia was conducted in complete secrecy until their surprise engagement was announced in 2003. Letizia Ortiz Rocasolano was already a household name - a well-recognised television presenter and award-winning reporter who covered events such as the Iraq War and 9/11. She had worked at various newspapers, as well at Bloomberg, CNN+ and Spain's state TV company Television Espanola.
The daughter of a journalist and a nurse, and the granddaughter of a taxi driver, she first met the prince at a colleague's dinner party in 2002.
The fact that she was also a divorcee led to criticism from hardline monarchists - Letizia wed a teacher in a civil ceremony 1998. Their marriage lasted just one year.
But the journalist-turned-royal bride - who became Queen consort at Felipe's side in 2014 - has proved popular with the public for her down-to-earth approach.
During her engagement photocall, she made headlines when she told Felipe in public to shut up. "Let me finish," she said, smiling, in front of the cameras.
Kate worked as a part-time accessories buyer for Jigsaw Junior, run by friends of her family, and then worked at her parents' firm Party Pieces.
She shot to fame because of her relationship with William, whom she met at university and dated for some eight years before they wed in 2011.
Kate has a mix of middle and working class heritage, descended from a family of solicitors and landed gentry on her father's side and butchers, plasterers, road sweepers and domestic servants on her mother's.
Charles and Camilla were also at the State Banquet having welcomed the Spanish couple earlier in the day. Camilla looked regal in a cream Bruce Oldfield gown, a sash with the Dame Grand Cross of the Victoria Order and a Queen's Family Order brooch given to her by The Queen on her 60th Birthday
The royals were all smiles at the grand State Visit, the highest form of diplomatic contact between Sovereign states, which it is hoped will nurture relations between the two countries as Britain prepares to leave the EU.
However, behind the gilded veneer were concerns about simmering tensions over Brexit negotiations and the thorny issue of Gibraltar's sovereignty (July 12, 2017)

Edward inherited the throne when he was only nine, his quest to change England was to tear apart his family and his country.
Written and presented by Dr David Starkey, this is the compelling story of two of England's most striking monarchs: a brother and sister, tied by blood and affection, and torn apart by religion, power, and some of the bloodiest episodes in English history. Mary (who was to become England's first reigning Queen since Matilda but who is best known to generations of British schoolchildren as Bloody Mary) was the first born child of Henry VIII. For 20 years she was heir to her adored father. Then came the birth of her little half-brother Edward, and Mary found herself cast into the shadows, ignored by her father and declared illegitimate by Act of Parliament. Nonetheless she became very attached to the motherless boy, and he to her, declaring her his dearest sister. When Edward was just nine, their father died and the young boy became King, surrounded by advisors and further distanced from his beloved elder sister. But by now they were divided not just by power and status, but also by faith. Mary was a staunch Catholic, Edward a reforming Protestant: at this time such matters were not an issue of personal choice but matters of life or death, treason or heresy. Within a few years Mary was under virtual house arrest and banned from celebrating mass; within a few more years Edward was dead at the tragically early age of 16 and Mary became Queen. She set about making England a Catholic country once more and hundreds of Protestants, including Edward's most trusted advisors, were burnt at the stake because they refused to renounce their faith.
