"But instead of practicing piano I used to play with the dagger" drops rope to check on her dagger. Boss lady

I love how the Duke’s daughter attending the Queen at her coronation had to hurry home for her mom’s barbecue, lol. As an American I can relate a little!

"She went to Paris for a weekend and dropped dead" LOL! She said it so nonchalantly that it made me laugh. I respect that old woman for ensuring that her granddaughter would be able to live comfortably for the rest of her life. Mothers and Grandmothers always think about the future of their children.

Imagine going to a museum that used to be your family home and there are chords round your stuff and you nonchalantly just go and remove said ropes.

A humble South African sign-maker finding out he's to be made duke of Atholl is like something out of a 1990s romcom.

“The marriage ran into difficulties.” Love how British people manage to make everything sound so posh. Very interesting documentary and great questions by the host!

"He had absolutely no purpose in his life"..... I'll remember this one from this very interesting documentary. Thank you.

Lady Rosemary is what really makes this documentary, i.e. “I don’t think we’re aloud to do this” [does it anyway] 😆. Personal goals.

The Duke of Atholl is such a lovely person! He just seems like a solid guy who truly understands how blessed he is. And the moment when we learned that they really don’t wear anything under their kilt had me laughing so hard!

Imagine her life as a young girl growing up. Her mother left her. Her father, the duke died and left her with a nasty stepmother.

"I'm here because of an accident of birth, and I didn't actually do anything to deserve this huge privilege that I have." As an American, I'm really heartened by his expressed self-awareness. In the US, we may not have titles of nobility, but we have our share of people born into wealth and privilege -- recognizing my own fortunate circumstance, of course. We can't justifiably demand anyone give up what family and circumstance has blessed them with, but self-awareness of the kind expressed by the duke would still be welcome.

The lady of the yellow castle seems like she really loves the business side of it and taking care of her inheritance. Also the first lady was really interesting, it will be amazing to see old royals walk through their palaces and tell all those stories about childhood and teenage years.

"I Haven't done anything to deserve it". Respect!

" I just hate things on the slant." LOL shes adorable!

Oh to be British, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry to leave the coronation early, but I must get home bc Mum is roasted an ox".

The thing that interests me most about Dukes and Royals is their proximity to so much history! What a joy to see so much of it an to have access to archives and architecture.

If only Agatha Christie were still alive to write a mystery where the Dyuke is murdered in the library by the dagger hidden near the family portrait.

I'm surprised a 400 year old historical robe is just hung in a garment bag. His wife's robe too. Very beautiful items. I've seen modern wedding dresses with better preservation. The family seems very nice and humble. I hope the robes don't deteriorate.

The daughter of the Duke of Leads is so nice to listen to. I like her sensitive and realistic way of describing the various scenarios in the lives of she and her father. Money isn't everything.
