A new podcast series On Royal Watch delves into the complicated relationship between the British royal family and the media. In today's episode we talk to Anna Whitelock, professor of the History of Monarchy at City, University of London, and look at the past, present and future relationship that the media have with the royal family, and in particular how the Queen is portrayed. How has that changed – and will the way the Firm as it’s known be covered in the same way when Prince Charles or Prince William is on the throne? And what effect are fictional portrayals of the Windsors having on their image?
