The Royals with Roya and Kate

A busy week for the King, who as head of the Church of England accepts the Archbishop of Canterbury's resignation. The first for nearly five hundred years. Plus King Charles celebrates his 76th birthday; Prince William is in Belfast and Prince Andrew stumps up the cash to remain at Royal Lodge - for the time being?

The Prince of Wales was in South Africa this week for his annual Earthshot prize and gave a candid insight into his "brutal" year. And what are the implications for the Royal Family following the election of Donald Trump? Does Harry have reason to be worried?

Today, Roya and Kate are joined by the remarkably impressive, firefighting polymath Dr Sabrina Cohen-Hatton, one of the world’s most senior female firefighters. She’s also an advocate for Prince William’s Homewards Initiative helping those who are homeless. And as you’ll hear, had to deal with the most challenging of starts to life, being homeless herself for some of her teenage years. She talks about what it is like working with the Prince of Wales, and taking part in a new ITV documentary which highlights the Prince's work on homelessness where the Prince of Wales has spoken candidly about drawing on his late mother’s “inspiration and guidance”.

The King and Queen touched down in soggy Samoa on Wednesday, marking an end to the Australian leg of their visit down under. Despite the much publicised protests, can the Palace chalk it down as a success?

The Princess of Wales paid a visit to victims of and first responders to the Southport stabbing attack in a surprise first engagement since finishing her chemotherapy. William asks for a new Bourne movie (and gets a disappointingly firm 'no'). And the King and Queen prepare for their visit down under.

A poignant image emerged this week: The Princess of Wales, recovering from cancer, in an embrace with Liz Hatton, a teen battling the same disease, which came after a bucket list item was crossed off for the young photographer. That, and William and Harry's intriguingly similar diaries.

Roya and Kate discuss Harry’s trip to New York while Meghan has also been in the headlines. Meanwhile the Princess of Wales has been gently adding to her activities with her recent visit to Sadler's Wells, the weekend trip to Balmoral and the upcoming Christmas carol service.

Happy Birthday Harry! Roya and Kate delve into royal diplomacy on social media and in the flesh - who’s doing what, where? And will birthday well wishes mean any movement between Prince Harry and the Palace? Plus, the quiet work around the world of Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.
