About this listen

A Windsor Castle video sparks online outrage when staff handle a rare book without gloves, and the Royal Collection Trust has to explain why bare, clean hands are actually best practice. Plus, the real-world cost of dressing like a senior royal, new numbers on the royal helicopter fleet and sustainable fuel claims, and a few lighter royal-adjacent items to close out the week.

Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy.
