Summary

From converting planes into living quarters to extensive outfit planning, it's safe to say a lot of hard work goes into royal tours. In this episode of The Right Royal Podcast we speak with HELLO!'s royal editor Emily Nash, who has travelled to nearly every continent with the royal family. Emily also recounts the night she took part in a pub quiz against Prince Harry in New Zealand! We also speak with Dickie Arbiter who planned many tours over the 12 years he worked as Press Secretary to the late Queen. Dickie talks about King Charles' pilot skills and also speaks about the very unusual things that need to be packed for all eventualities on a tour. Finally, Andrea and Emmy speak with journalist and WhatKateWore founder Susan E. Kelley about the creativity and pressure that goes into the outfits that are worn on these high profile visits.
