It was actually very sad to watch... I felt kind of bad for him.)
As the segment went on, we watched him workout at the gym with his private trainer, at an uber-exclusive club mind you. Shopping at the local newstand, then strolling in the park when the reporter snagged several people asking them, "Do you know who this is?" Their repsonses, "No." Followed by, "He is a prince..." Some were puzzled hence the didn't care while others were polite stating, "Oh...okay...um... it's nice to met you." I hate to say it, but the way his segment was edited, he came off like a buffoon.
Then after Frederik's segment another reporter, not Deborah Roberts, interviewed Prince Emmanual Filibreto (sp?). Again, the way he was edited they made him seem completely useless in today's world. He talked about his family's history, his new baby, and his recent return to his princely hometown (I don't remember the name.)
There were other segments which discussed Princess Stephanie and Monaco. I think. At the end of the program the head journalist hinted that royals were essentially not necessary; specifically those like Nikolas and Emanuelle Filibrito (sp?). Others, like Frederik and the British royals have some what of a siginificance to their respective countries such as Nationalism. In the end, they made it seem like most royals only survive these days for show.
Finally, it ended with "America's royalty" (hence cheesy celebrities and so forth.)
Overall the 20/20 program was okay, I was only interested because I knew Frederik was going to interviewed. By the way, the show was called Royals Rule.
Finally, I'm having a hard time uploading the Rapidshare file. Can someone help me?  |
Thanks GT - no need for me to try and hunt the rest down then huh?  What problems are you having with Rapidshare? Downloading it?

the accent

the accent is classic to voice coaching/elocution lessons where there is usually an attempt to neutralize the accent to remove the slangy expressions and abbreviations. Note the slow delivery every sentence delivered with thought and attention. Also standard i spoke like that for ages after mine after a while it does begin to sound normal but for me it took years. Her later interviews in Australia she sounds more normal but markedly different to her aus family though that is not strange as aussies often lose their accents easily and tend to adapt to the people that they are speaking with.

Does anyone have this pre wedding video? It features many royals (including Crown Prince Pavlos and Marie Chantal) discussing the upcoming royal wedding of Crown Prince Frederick and Mary: Fætre og kusiner om Frederik & Mary
It used to be on the web but I can't find it anywhere. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!!
