Red Faced Zara Phillips in Land Rover Advert

This extrodinary video of Posh Totty Zara Phillips enjoying the spectacle of her horse sneezing a gallon of nasal discharge over a young chap trying it on with her reminded us of previous Royal exploits that have brought the Royal family in to the limelight.

First up - Harry the Hun - the Prince of Wales’s youngest son photographed enjoying a drink and a cigarette while dressed as a member of Rommel’s Afrika Korps, complete with a prominent swastika armband. Further comments and articles about Prince Harry becoming an embarassment

At a recent Buckingham Palace Garden Party held to celebrate 6o years of Land Rover and elder member of the Royal Family was overheard saying “they stay over there, stealing our jobs” when asked for his comment about the prospect that the Freelander production may transfer to Asia.

The high point of the celebrations was the handing over of keys for the 60 Land Rovers donated to the British Red Cross to deploy in both the UK and abroad. Interestingly Zara failed to attend this event - although her relationship with the all terrain manufacturer is wekll documented - indeed it is claimed that she was the very first Royal to recieve direct payment for advertising the Freelander when the model was re-launched in 2006.

And who can forget the hilarious “Its A Royal Knockout”? A one off charity event that followed the format of great british telly It’s a Knockout. The contestants including celebrities of the time and many members of the Royal Family competed in ridiculous and somewhat humiliating games; for example in one round they dress up as giant vegetables and throw fake hams at each other.
