The look of the Royals has changed over the course of history; from the domineering power projected by Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, to the preening extravagance of George IV, to the aspirational elegance of the House of Windsor and today’s Queen Elizabeth II.
News that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are expecting their first child sent the media into a royal baby frenzy. This coupled with the fact they have embarked on their first tour together has meant they’ve remained very much in the limelight. Back home, senior royals have been remembering old heroes and meeting new ones.
With Meghan and Harry firmly in the spotlight – the current success of their antipodean tour coupled with the happy news that Meghan is expecting – our pick of the week simply had to be Meghan and Harry: The First 100 Days.

Prince Charles and The Duchess of Cornwall received a warm welcome during their visit to West Africa over the last five days.
