Royal

Britain's Duchess of Cambridge will join the 75th birthday celebrations of the RAF Air Cadets.
The 34-year-old royal - who is the Air Commodore-in-Chief after being handed the honour by her grandfather-in-law, the Duke of Edinburgh - is set to make an appearance on February 7 to pay tribute to the organisation's successes.
To mark the occasion, Duchess Catherine will attend a service at St Clement Danes church on the Strand, which has RAF links, before joining guests at a reception at the nearby Royal Courts of Justice.
Meanwhile, Prince Philip was previously praised for his outstanding 63 years of service to the Air Cadets as Air Commodore-in-Chief by Air Commodore Dawn McCafferty.
She said at the time of his departure: "We will be forever grateful to HRH The Duke of Edinburgh for his outstanding commitment to the Air Training Corps over the decades. He is admired and respected by cadets and volunteers alike and we will miss his ready sense of humour and genuine interest in the development of the nation's youth.
"Her links to the RAF family are already well-established and her desire to support youth development is well recognised around the world."

Penny Lancaster made an "embarrassing" mistake in front of Britain's Prince Charles.
The 44-year-old model was attending a dinner with her husband Rod Stewart in honour of The Princes' Trust and had the pleasure of sitting next to the 67-year-old royal during the meal, only for a slip up during the fish course make her "apologise profusely" to the heir to the throne.
She told the Daily Mail newspaper: "Rod and I are patrons of The Prince's Trust. They bring the food on a silver platter and you have to serve yourself from over the shoulder of the person next to you.
"Prince Charles was talking to me and I didn't want to divert my eyes while I was reaching for this food, and my fish dropped on the table between my plate and his!
"I was horrified and apologised profusely, but he just said 'I do it all the time' and helped me clear it up."
Meanwhile, it appears the Prince enjoyed the night with his dining companion as the Duchess of Cornwall previously told Penny that he liked sitting next to her.
During a chance meeting, Duchess Camilla quipped to the model: "Yes he told me [you had dinner together] and said what a really lovely evening it had been, particularly sitting next to you."

Britain's Prince Harry made a surprise phone call to a team of amputee rowers.
The sportsmen were forced to take a break because of the storms but were given a boost by the 31-year-old royal as they continued on their 3,000 mile journey across the Atlantic.
A source told PEOPLE magazine: "He heard about the storm and wanted to check in and give them a bit of a boost and some support."
Whilst a spokesperson for Row2Recovery added: "It gave them a real boost. It was a surprise phone call - they had no idea. He asked them about the storm and wished them well for the rest of the journey.
"They have been in good spirits throughout, which is a testament to their determination."
Despite dealing with their own tough trek, the group of rowers took time to pay tribute to the Prince's friend Henry Worsley, who tragically died after falling ill during his Antartica trek.
Taking to their Facebook site, they wrote: "Our team of @leglessrowers would like to dedicate their update today to Lt Col Henry Worsley, who sadly passed away yesterday after his solo trek across Antartica.
"Henry was raising funds for the Endeavour Fund to help injured servicemen and women, of which our wounded team are beneficiaries of and also raising funds for. A committed man, selfless veteran and true hero, to Henry."

Britain's Prince Charles was "honoured" to receive the European Union prize for Cultural Heritage on behalf of the newly-opened Prince of Wales Studios.
The 67-year-old royal was handed the award by Europa Nostra for the pottery studios in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent which have been revamped thanks to The Prince's Regeneration Trust, of which the Prince is a founding member and a patron.
He said: "I can't remember how many years ago I first met the former, eminent MP for Burslem, but I do remember she advanced on me determinedly - 'When are you coming to help Burslem?'
"I said I'd do my best and finally I have got here and I've been doing what I can to help little bits of Burslem. This project here is something, of which I could not be more proud, and the fact Europa Nostra have given it this award is an enormous honour to say the least. It is a great tribute to all of the people at the Prince's Regeneration Trust who have put so much effort into rescuing this place."
The Prince - who is heir to the throne - spoke of his "battle" to save the pottery factory, where the new studios sit beside and admits he is "hugely encouraged" by the build.
Speaking at the event, he added: "Twice we had to battle to save this place, but it would take a lot to prevent me in the determination of finding a way of saving and reusing these very special places.
"There are so many of them around the country, but his one here has demonstrated something very special in that it has also maintained the all important jobs of the important pottery industry which has a great history and a great tradition.
"For me today to be able to see these studios completed, having seen them right from the very beginning, and seeing the other studios and workshops occupied with all kinds of young people is hugely encouraging."

Britain's Prince George caused interest in his nursery to soar by 65 per cent.
The two-year-old royal - the son of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge - is currently in his fourth week at Westacre Montessori School in King's Lynn, Norfolk and interest has already spiked in the school's various sites worldwide.
Louise Livingston, director of training at the Maria Montessori Institute, told PEOPLE magazine: "As soon as the first week in January hit and the news of George joining the nursery, enquiries have been almost constant. We've been hearing from a lot of people who want to be a Montessori teacher. We have an open afternoon every so often where people can come and observe students, and those events have been booking full. Before they weren't fully booked.
"That was almost instantaneous. People might have thought about working as a nursery teacher and might not have realised there was a specific training for Montessori. We have certainly noticed more awareness with that."
Meanwhile, Prince George - who has an eight-month-old sister, Princess Charlotte - was very "brave" on his first day of nursery, according to Duchess Catherine.
Recalling a conversation he had with the Duchess, retired Royal Navy lieutenant commander Arthur Coxon said: "They asked what my connection with the association was and I congratulated Kate on the lovely photos of Prince George.
"She said he went off to school bravely as anything and thoroughly enjoyed it."

Britain's Prince Charles is "concerned" about the future of the RSPCA's royal patronage.
The 67-year-old royal is reportedly worried about how the royal link to the animal charity will carry on because of their stance on countryside sports.
A source told the Daily Telegraph: "Prince Charles has privately voiced his concerns about the RSPCA. He has taken a close interest in the RSPCA and what has been happening there. He wants it to be an effective animal welfare organisation but it has become something else. It would be interesting to see how he could be a patron of an organisation with which he has had fundamental disagreements.
"Charles and Camilla are very supportive of hunting and shooting; so too are Princes William and Harry. They would have to take the view the RSPCA has moved on from its position two years ago. A lot will now depend on who becomes chief executive. That has to be critical in whether Prince Charles can ever take over the patronage."
Meanwhile, the organisation's chief executive Tim Bonner understands whoever takes on patronage, whether they are royal or not, would have to have similar beliefs to the charity.
He said: "Anyone considering taking on the patronage of the RSPCA would have to consider its future direction and whether it is going to continue down a radical campaign path.
"If it reverts to its traditional role as a welfare charity protecting animals I am sure nobody could have any reason not to support its work."

Britain's Prince Charles will attend this year's British Asian Trust's gala dinner.
The 67-year-old royal will be joined by his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, at the annual event, which will take place at the Natural History Museum in London on February 2.
Richard Hawkes, the chief executive officer of the British Asian Trust said: "The Trust is looking forward to organising another fantastic gala event this year for all of our friends and supporters.
"This powerful gathering will be an evening of celebration but also share the real impact that the Trust is making in our goals to improve lives and make a difference to South Asia."
The Prince of Wales is a founder and president of the Trust, which works with the South Asian community, and will be joined at the event by a host of celebrities including the British Asian Trust's first ever ambassador, television star Sanjeev Bhaskar, known for his work on comedy programme 'The Kumars at No. 42'.
The 450 guests attending the event will be treated to a fabulous performance by 'Bleeding Love' hitmaker Leona Lewis as they celebrate the successes of the trust over the past year.

A new statue of Britain's Queen Elizabeth has been commissioned to mark her 90th birthday.
The 89-year-old royal will be honoured in Gravesham, Kent, after world-renowned sculptor Douglas Jennings was commissioned to create the art work by the local council.
Council leader John Cubitt said: "It will be a fitting tribute to our longest reigning monarch on a notable personal milestone.
"Everyone admires The Queen's dedication to carrying out her duties so diligently into a seventh decade. Our tribute will be dignified and will mark a special moment in the nation's history for generations to come."
The statue, which will be completed in bronze, will feature the Queen in a sitting position whilst dressed in her Order of the Garter robes.
Of the town's link with the monarchy, Councillor John Cubitt added: "I'm certain that the people of our borough will welcome this artwork which will become part of our future heritage. It is important to realise that this will not be a cost to the public purse.
"The borough's links to the monarchy are long-standing over centuries and it is especially fitting that it comes in a year when our market, one of the oldest royal chartered markets in England, is being redeveloped at the same time the statue of the last reigning Queen, Victoria, is being restored."

Britain's Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are planning play dates for their son.
The royal couple are reportedly organising for two-year-old Prince George's friends to visit him at Anmer Hall, their country retreat in Norfolk, east England.
A source told Bella magazine: "Kate and William will be getting involved in Prince George's nursery life. They won't ever want him to feel isolated or different from the other children, so that means plenty of play dates with his classmates.
"Kate and William are very sociable and want to get involved in all aspects of his nursery life, which includes meeting his new friends. There would be security checks on parents coming into their home and personal 'family areas' of the estate would be out of bounds, but there are plenty of communal areas where George's friends can visit."
Meanwhile, it is likely Prince George will want to spend the majority of his playdates outside anyway as he "instinctively" likes to be outdoors, according to his grandfather Prince Charles.
He said previously: "Fortunately he's one of those characters, I think, who naturally, instinctively likes to be outside.
"It's very interesting. I'm intrigued to see if it lasts. But he loves being outside, which is encouraging. Like all these things, it depends if you can get them to take an interest."
