We are amused – HTI and RDF do The Monarchy

Since the death of Diana almost 10 years ago, and the consequential number of salacious docs on the Windsor family, it's understandable if the British Monarchy's first instinct is to mistrust the camera. Even before the infamous Paris crash, it was still rare for documentary filmmakers to gain access into the inner workings of the Royal Family, but London-based copro partners hti and RDF Television have managed to do it twice in as many years, first with 2005's The Queen's Castle and now again with the upcoming The Monarchy (w/t).
