Deze komische serie verkent de omwenteling na de onverwachte afschaffing van de Britse monarchie. Wees getuige van de verbijsterende en vaak hilarische pogingen van de koninklijke familie om te navigeren in een volkswoning, ontdaan van hun titels en privileges. Met scherpe humor en indringende observatie ontleedt het verhaal humoristisch de sociale kloven en de verrassende veerkracht die gevonden wordt bij het aanpassen aan een geheel nieuwe realiteit.
A revolutionary British government orders the Queen to abdicate and the Royal family to vacate Buckingham Palace. Being rehoused on a council estate in the Midlands comes as a bit of a shock to Philip and Elizabeth. The intrusion of this family of "poshos" is a shock for their new neighbours too.
When the Queen announces her decision to abdicate, Charles refuses to follow his destiny unless his wife can be queen - and public opinion suggests that the people would rather have Jordan on the throne than Camilla. But no sooner has Prince William offered himself as the next monarch than one Graham Cracknell of Ruislip emerges, claiming to be Charles and Camilla's secret love-child and rightful heir.
