Ep 197: Royal Millions - Dispatches Unpacked

Prior to this episode, Jemma had mainly associated the word 'Duchy' with Musical Youth, the band from the 80's who used to pass it on the left hand side. Since delving into the C4 Dispatches 'The King, The Prince and Their Secret Millions' she's had to catch up pretty quickly. Marina feels a mixture of vindicated and furious and neither of the Trawl ladies can get their heads around charging high rents to charities you're patrons of, owning sea-beds and being an advocate for the climate issues when your own properties aren't insulated properly. There's a lot to discuss. After hearing a vintage clip of Robert Smith, lead singer of The Cure, Marina's a huge fan..Larry and Paul serve up a wonderful pudding. Enjoy!
