I’m sure this has been asked before but will all of this be broadcast in the US? If not what’s the best online stream to watch? Thanks.

Hi. Is there anyway I can get the iPhone version of the new mobile to display the categories to look like the online laptop version?

Did the royal palace serve as the presidential palace during the second republic? Was it damaged badly during the civil war? Thanks!

On a post about the Queen not attending COP26 it mentioned that Prince Edward had cancelled a trip he had planned this week to visit relatives in Germany. Who would that have been?

Does Karl, as current head of the House, own any castles or palaces? I know all the family had were expropriated but did he recover anything? On another note does the current President of Austria actually live in the Hofburg or just have his office there?

Caethi - Sorry for the three year delay. I am not 100% certain of the circumstances of the Imperial family leaving Schonbrunn but I seem to recall reading - years and years ago - that the family decided to move to one of their privately owned villas to avoid being evicted. I believe they went...

I know I read it in the Daily Mail but now the article seems to have disappeared. The video is still there but not the article. Oh well.

A few days ago I saw photos (in the Daily Mail) of a party Charles and Camilla hosted at Clarence House. Does it have a ballroom or is it large enough to entertain large numbers of guests? It's connected to St James' Palace, correct? Could they use the ballroom there (if there is one)? Thanks...

I apologize if this has been answered but what were the medals Prince Charles wore today at the D-Day commemoration? Especially the one around his neck? Thanks.

Yes, but why remove the double-headed eagle? That is such a Habsburg symbol.

Regarding the palace in Berlin was any thought given to restoring at least part of the interior to its pre-destruction state?

Hello. It looks as if the rostrum in the main chamber of parliament is removed and replaced with thrones for the opening of parliament. Is this correct?
