    At Home With The Windsors
    In 1969 thousands sat glued to their television screens as a documentary lifted the lid on the Royal Family for the first time.

    Viewers around the world were enthralled by 'Royal Family', which took a behind-the-scenes look at the Windsors.

    BBC stills photographer Joan Williams was offered an even more intimate glimpse than most into this hithero unseen world.

    Secretive Isington-based graffiti artist Bambi is having her work being compared with that of the man who inspired her, Banksy.

    The 30-something artist revealed exclusively in a local newspaper that she was once arrested in the north London borough and spent a few hours in a cell after being caught red-handed about to start painting a wall.

    She is currently planning a new work to commemorate the Queen (FOTO:DUKAS/REX)
