so the days of the windsor castle fire burned and the queen had a sad look on her face throughout the year and things were not really going well for the royal family, i think they have solidly put that behind them, between the wedding and this event, which will go on for 3 days and then they have the olympics in july. so a p.r. effort and very good material to work with by the p.r. folks has really changed the image of the royal family. they near a high point. >> jamie: and you mentioned that the middletons were on a royal barge as well. that seems pretty significant. >> reporter: yes, it is significant. the royal family does not easily embrace outsiders. there is no obligation, you know, you think back to princess diana's funeral. the spencers, once the divorce happened, were very much on the outs. they were not included in royal events. and sarah ferg son -- ferguson is not riding on the barges, so people who are outside the family are outside the family. the middletons are in-laws, but they are very much a part of the scene and the queen has been very gracious in giving them a roya

once you start doing that, why stick with the house of windsor? if you don't stick with the house of windsor you're into elections and then the great thing about the monarchy is it is a unifying factor in the country. the minute you have politicians or elections, half the country wants the person that's on the throne and the other half doesn't. so there's always discord. >> penny, on that historical point, it's very important i think we don't allow the monarchy to get politicized. >> i think it will be unacceptable. but the monarchy has power. it has soft power. it has moral leadership. i think that is what is -- you know, william and harry the pair of them are fantastic leaders. >> my brother-in-law actually was one of the colonels in charge of training them at the military academy. so my sister used to have the welcome the royals. what was fascinating was he said about both the boys they were great soldiers and they never wanted to be treated any differently than any of the others. they never asked for favors and never got favors. and that again

coalso be speaking about the family, about the windsors. >> i think so andrea.r thing to katy's point is that the queen represents a commitment of service to the country. something that although these, of course, the beneficiary of luxury in the form of various palaces, in terms of her practice, she serves the nation resolutely through many difficult times. of course, the last century marked by wars and the royal family themselves involved in being supportive during bombings in london during the second world war. it's kind of been a practice of we do voegs and public service which really has marked this family out. i think one of the difficulties for them is that prince charles has not really developed that kind of reputation. his mother is resolute and dedicated in her service. for many people, prince charles is slightly unhinged. he gets some interesting ideas about various issues. but ostensibly was cruel to his first wife. and hasn't really been somebody that has represented or at least embodied what his mother has done. and there are many people and katty w
