Always in the right place at the right time Karen Anvil snapped this great shot: https://twitter.com/Anvilius/status/1094669717858586624
She's the lady who grabbed the famous Fab Four shot Christmas 2017.

This is one couple that knows how to make an entrance.
Yes, the whole evening was nice. Joanna’s jokes weren’t all that funny, but the Cambridge’s always put the icing on the cake at this event. They got a chance to meet Spike Lee, so that was exciting.

I couldn't quite get the conversation, what they was saying - but I don't think Prince William made that joke this time. He already did that with Dame Helen Mirren in 2014, and I thought that was cute, but from what Dame.H.Mirren said on another TV interview, she did not like it.

In this particular case, the joke wouldn’t make any sense as William is not a descendant of Queen Anne. Dame Helen on the other hand was playing William’s actual grandmother !

I love the comment one of the guests made: ‘Who do I bow too ? William and Kate or Olivia and Claire Foy?’ 
It was great to see the couple there. I love the interactions between Catherine and Olivia Colman - and of course we can always rely on Karen Anvil for good photos!

These videos of the Cambridges chatting with folks after the ceremony really highlight for me just how skilled Kate has become at making each person she’s with feel like they’re the center of her world for a moment. It’s something I’ve noticed in videos of her interactions with people over the last year or so, but the way so many of these stars (who are far more used to meeting famous people than, say, the folks the royals meet during a visit to a school or charity) seem to be kind of thrilled by their conversations with her.
In her early years on the job I felt that Kate struggled at meet and greets. She tended to look a little scared with anyone over the age of 10. But I do think she’s put in some real work to master the skill of elevating small talk to something that makes the other person feel special, built her own confidence in the process, and now she has really blossomed into being one of the more personable royals in one-on-one interactions. Good job, Duchess!

I wonder if the BAFTA's is something that might be handed over to Meghan and Harry one day. I'm just thinking that Meghan would be a better fit since she has theater and acting quals etc.
Meghan wasn't on the scene when William got the BAFTA's so I just wonder if he's the best fit for it now.
Maybe when Charles succeeds there might be opportunity for a bit of re-shuffling, indeed I would think they would have to be given Charles will be stepping up and everyone else will have to share out or review what will happen to all the patronages across the board.
Have royals ever changed patronages 'mid stream' (excluding generational/retirement type handovers like the Queen giving the tennis to Catherine, I mean) amongst themselves?
Would it be seen as an insult to the patronage or would they just be grateful they have any royal support since it's in such demand?

I don't see what her theatre and acting qualification have to do with being a better fit to a role that is essentially to show up and hand out an award. William succeeded Sir Richard Attenborough as President of BAFTA after his Aunt Anne, Great Uncle Dickie and his grandfather Philip were Presidents. William has been President for 9 years so to take it away from the future King is futile I think.
I personally don't see it having a better impact for BAFTA if The Duchess of Sussex were to be President, than the future King.
Whilst there will be a division of patronages when HM and Philip pass on, most of which are being divided out now, this will no doubt have already been decided and will have little effect on the patronages royals already have.
