Summary

The Windsors takes fragments of royal reality and has turned them into a comedy hit. The irreverent Channel 4 show, which has just completed its third series, turns the royal family into pantomime characters in a Dynasty style soap. Writers George Jeffrie and Bert Tyler-Moore join Pod Save The Queen host Ann Gripper to discuss extreme storylines and plots that are oddly prescient, their favourite characters and why they would rather write the royals than be them. The Windsors Series 3 and the 1-3 Boxset are out on DVD & digital now. Join the conversation about the episode on Instagram and Twitter @podsave - and subscribe to the podcast to follow unfolding royal family news.Upcoming episodes: A royal expert answers your questions, update on the royal family during the coronavirus crisis Learn more about your ad choices.

to liven up your lockdown wherever you are because I am still in the corner of my spare bedroom talking to the wardrobe

0:25.6

so I am still in the same place but excitingly we have actually also moved virtually

But if you've bookmarked our show page or you listen via the a cast app then we'll be adding new links in the show notes to our page on Dax and the global player
