Will Charles Update His Christmas Message? and Why Royal Cards Never Show Bad Weather

A Sky News analysis asks whether King Charles the Third should address Australia’s Bondi Beach attack in his Christmas broadcast — and whether Buckingham Palace can, or will, adjust a message likely recorded earlier in the month.

We then go behind the scenes at Sandringham, where former royal chef Darren McGrady describes Christmas preparations as a “military operation,” from the set menus to the advance team and the army-style transport of provisions.

Plus, why royal Christmas cards almost never feature winter scenes, and how this year’s Wales family photo fits that PR tradition.
