William & Catherine: Putting Family First

CHANNEL 5, 1 X 90

This powerful and revelatory film explores the little-known story of how the Prince and Princess of Wales are revolutionising the Royal family by prioritising their family above duty to the crown, breaking centuries of royal tradition. Theirs is a royal rebellion not heralded by fanfares but brought about through quiet acts of revolution behind palace doors.  

Featuring in-depth interviews with those who’ve worked for the royals, combined with compelling, rarely seen archive footage, we take a look at how William and Catherine are daring to do things differently, and what they’ve learnt from the heartbreaking mistakes of the royal past - from rejecting the traditional stiff upper lip to encouraging Charlotte, George and Louis to cook in the royal kitchen.  

We’ll discover how the way they’re bringing up the next generation of royals is redefining what it means to serve the crown, and why their commitment to ensuring their children’s wellbeing has caused them to question royal protocols set in stone for centuries.   

William and Catherine's bold decision to be ‘hands on’ parents and embrace what most of us would consider 'ordinary', may well have achieved something remarkable - secured the future of the crown.
