À propos de cet épisode
You might think that working for the Queen or any other member of the Royal family is a glamorous and prestigious job, but not all positions within the British Royal Household are as glamorous as they sound. Some of them are downright weird, and some of them no longer exist. An exhibition opening in Kensington palace from March ‘Untold Lives: A Palace at Work’ hopes to bring to life these forgotten professionals who kept the palace running. What are some roles that no longer exist? What are some unusual roles that still exist? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
