Dolly Parton wants to hang out with the Royal Family

0:03 Caloroga Shark Media. Hello, we welcome through Palace Injury a game your host, Mark Francis. Dolly Parton, who famously turned down Tea with Kate last year due to a jam packed promotional schedule, now appears keen to make amends. I don't know if that office still stands, but if she wants me and I'm there, I'll be right there with tea bag in hand, Dolly told The Huffington Post. Dolly also lets slip that she hopes to meet the Queen, by which she means Queen Camilla. Naturally, we hope in October, citing the shared passion for children's literacy, Dolly's Imagination Library, which has gifted over two hundred million books since nineteen ninety five and expanded to the UK in two thousand and seven, has reportedly caught Camilla's eye, aligning neatly with her Majesty's Queen's Reading Room initiative. Dolly said, I'm going to go over there to really rub elbows with the Royalty, so yes, anything is possible. I never see no to anything.

1:06 When asked if she might appear on Meghan's Cooking Show, Parton kept the door open well never see never, You never know when you're gonna go. We hate to disappoint Dolly, but season two is already in the cairn. And as for the next generation of Royal's, Dolly has rolled out the welcome matt at Dollywood. They're all invited, she said, referring to Prince George, Princes Charlotte and Prince Lloyd. We would love to have them at Dollywood, and if they decide their schedule even permits that, well, then we will all go out and try to make it a Royal treat for them. Meanwhile, a major story is developing in Royal circles. Nearly two months after Megan, Duchess of Sussex launched her long awaited lifestyle brand. As ever, questions are swirling over why none of these sold out products have been restocked. The brand made its debut on April second, offering a limited range of items including wildflower honey with honeycomb at a striking twenty eight dollars, raspberry jam which is possibly really fruit spread from a legal standpoint for fourteen dollars, and flower sprinkles priced at fifteen. Short Bread crate mixes and various herbal teas rounded out the eight item selection or were priced firmly at the luxury end of the spectrum. Within half an hour of launch, the entire range was marked as sold out. Megan posted triumphantly to her followers, our shelves may be empty, but my heart is full. We sold out in less than one hour and I can't thank you enough for celebrating, purchasing, sharing and believing it's just the start at as ever official, here we go. But now some seven weeks later, shoppers

2:36 are asking where is the restock. No new stock has been added to the site since opening day. Some speculate that the products were only ever available in extremely limited quantities, perhaps to create the illusion of high demand. One industry insider told meil online, showing that there is a sellout is very common for new brands to fake demand. There is no warehouse full of jams. Mark Borkowski, a leading UK publicity sprat to just describe the situation as chaos, telling Newsweek maybe the fact it's not restocking gives them the opportunity to refresh the story. But there's just no logic And now, of course questions are going to be asked. Do they have the answers as soon as nothing's happening, people ask questions, but therefore her pr has always been chaos.

3:19 Maybe she's being let down by the very people who were surprised by her success. As for her other ventures, speculation is that Netflix will burn off the already filmed season of Megan's Cooking show. Today also is the final episode of season one of her current podcast. It remains to be seen if that project will return for more. Following poor chart positions, We'll have a bonus episode of Pallace Intrigue later today recapping Meghan's season and perhaps series finale. We listen so you don't have to.

While you're at it, perhaps Dolly Parton can guest on William's new TV show. The Prince of Wales has announced the debut of Guardians, a new six part docu series designed to cast a long overdue spotlight on the unsung heroes of conservation, the rangers working at the front lines of environmental protection across the globe. Speaking at a special screening of the series, Prince William shared his admiration for the brave men and women featured in the episodes, saying rangers are particularly unknown, their stories unseen.

7:56 They are unsung heroes of the natural world. This is all about highlighting them, showcasing them and realizing also how dangerous and how difficult this job is. The series, launched through the Royal Foundations United for Wildlife Initiative, premiered on BBC Earth's YouTube and social media channels. A new episode will be released each week, ranging from six to ten minutes in length. Prince William himself introduces each episode. Inspired by Sir David Attenborough's legendary work, William Hope's Guardians will provide a similarly powerful lens into the natural world. David Attenborough big inspiration for me growing up, He explained, being able to present wonderful parts of the world to so many of us, lots of people who never got a chance to visit. And I hope this does the same sort of thing. It reminds people that there are still wonderful parts of the world, and there is still hope, and there's still amazing work being done. Filmed in locations from the icy Himalayas to the dense rainforests of Brazil, the series shares intimate, first hand accounts of the trials, dangers, and triumphs of conservation work. Ranges featured in the series are shown not simply as enforces, but its teachers, scientists, and protectors. The first episode centers on the story of Jans Sangher, a former poacher from the Central African Republic who now dedicates his life to safeguarding the very wildlife he once hunted, a compelling narrative of redemption and hope.

9:16 Prince William concluded by sharing his wish that viewers come away with a deeper appreciation of nature and the communities who serve it. I think connection with local communities and the natural world. He said simply, that's the takeaway, and there you have it. Email us or just the Palace Intrigue at a gmail dot com.
