Do you realise how incredible that is that you were one of the very few privileged people to witness the Queen recording a Christmas messages for nearly 10 years?

I've never realised until you just said that.

I've really got a vision of Harry and Will like little boys making gingerbread with you.

We did, we did lots of baking.

They both really enjoyed that, yes.

I did see one recording, and I thought the producer was a little bit, like,

I got the queen under my control, and he sort of asked her to do some sentence again.

Oh, no.

She said it was a bit mumbly, yeah.

Oh, you don't tell the queen that her sentence a bit mumbling.

The house was always beautifully decorated and the boys would certainly have had a hand in that and Princess Diana, definitely.

Hello and welcome to our first ever episode of the Bright Rural podcast with me, Emmy.

And me, Andrea.

In this new podcast with Hello, we'll be talking all

things royal with the people who have worked with them and know them best. And so, we thought we

kick things off with the Christmas gift to you all and chat festivities at the palace. From this

episode, I headed to Windsor Castle to chat to Royal Collection Trust Curator Catherine Jones.

And we speak about festive food with Charles and Diana's former chef Carolyn Robb.

We also sit down with John Stillwell, who photographed the Queen during her iconic Christmas

speeches for many years.

But first, we're joined by our very own Royal editor, Emily Nash.

Hi, Emily.
