Q What can we expect from the show?

A It’s fascinating! It tells the story of the role the palace has played in public life, and also of the people who have lived and worked in it. Buckingham Palace was originally a modest country house on the edge of London surrounded by cow fields, until it was gradually ‘upgraded’. The original house has been completely subsumed into the mega-scale building we know now!
