Episode 2

The second episode jumps forwards into the turbulent military careers of Princes Andrew and Edward. We discuss how Andrew nobly used his helicopter as a missile decoy during the Falklands war, luring Exocet's away from the vessels of the British Task Force. He tells us honestly what it's really like to confront your own mortality. Contrarily, Prince Edward hits the headlines when he dramatically quits his marine training, ending a century- long tradition of princes touring with the military. In contrast to media reports at the time, Prince Edward was thriving on the course, so we ask – why the sudden departure?
