And what an extraordinary moment for the new Princess of Wales to look out at this
sea of human beings... ..who now will feel that they,
in some way, own her. At the time, the future of the monarchy
had never seemed more secure than with the birth of
Prince William of Wales in 1982. Two years later,
a second son was born. Prince Harry appeared
for the cameras wearing the christening robe
of Honiton lace worn by generations of royal babies. For his father, Prince Charles, it was an excuse to give
an instant history lesson to young Prince William. Granny was christened in this. Great Granny. And Great Granny. And I was. But by the mid-1990s,
the final scenes and confrontations between them were being
played out in public
