Mary y Frederik

The German channel ZDF.de has been broadcasting a six week series of programs Die Königskinder which focus on each of the European heirs.

It is 43 minutes long and in German, but features interviews with Danish commentators and a family friend of the Donaldson's and John Bertrand. The programs which have been shown featured Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria ("

), Netherland's Prince Willem-Alexander and Princess Maxima ("
Tulips and Tango"
), Norway's Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit ("
Cinderella and the Prince"
) and Spain's Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia ("

). The links to these earlier programs and the future one on Prince William (next week's "
