Are royal women influential?Monday 3 June 2002
When Princess Diana appeared on TV and defiantly told the world about her marriage, we knew the Royal Family could never again expect a young woman quietly to take a back seat and put up with her husband's shenanigins.

How much have women in the Royal Family over the past couple of centuries influenced the way women in this country behave? - and how much has their take on their own lives been determined by changes in the status of women?
Jenni discusses the issues with historian, Juliet Gardiner and Ingrid Seward, Editor-in-Chief of Majesty magazine.
Juliet Gardiner is the editor of Who's Who in British History published in July 2002, Collins and Brown; ISBN: 1855858827, £14.99
