Robin Knight, the television reporter, is interviewing the Duchess of Wessex for the programme “The English At Home”. Robin: Now, Duchess… tell us about an ordinary day in your life. Duchess: Well, I wake up at seven o’clock… Robin: Really? Do you get up then? Duchess: No, of course I don’t get up at that time. I have breakfast in bed and I read “The Times”. Robin: What time do you get up? Duchess: I get up at ten. Robin: What do you do then? Duchess: I read my letters and dictate the replies to my secretary. Robin: …and then? Duchess: At eleven I walk in the garden with Philip. Robin: Oh? Who’s Philip? Duchess: Philip’s my dog. Robin: What time do you have lunch? Duchess: I have lunch at twelve thirty. Robin: And after lunch? Duchess: Oh, I rest until six o’clock. Robin: … and at six? What do you do at six? Duchess: I dress for dinner. We have dinner at eight o’clock. Robin: What time do you go to bed? Duchess: Well, I have a bath at nine thirty, and I go to bed at ten. Robin: Thank you, Duchess… you certainly have a busy and interesting life!
