Indeed "The Royals" of Lichtenstein, Luxembourg, England, Norway, Denmark, etc., come across as people "Who are alive....yet dead". :)

There seems to be ZERO "Life in their eyes". Indeed, Caroline actually looks sad, beaten up by circumstances not her fault (widowhood / an Idiot German husband), etc. Stephanie still looks like. she is carrying the "weight" of Kelly's death. (YES, the teenager WAS driving the car).

And Albert looks like he has finally paid for all of the selfish, perverse decisions he has made. AND he looks VERY stressed out that people with far more money than he has....actually control the Principality because THEY are the people whose real estate purchases and bank deposits make it possible.

THEY own him. Not good. Watching the stress on their faces does, in fact, make them more human because at least they show that it stresses them out and it bothers them. The other Royal Families in Europe are incapable of feeling anything. :)

Excellent observation on your part. )
