Did you know:
July 2010 -- Toronto, Canada -- Prince Phillip and Queen Elizabeth (she is the Queen of England, ya know) attend a special film presentation at Pinewood Studios in Toronto. The film was a 3D film directed by Deepa Mehta set during the early 19th. It consisted of a group of dancers in period costume gyrating to loud Asian Bhangra music for a few minutes. Of course the 3D glasses worn by the British Royals -- you don't get to see either of them wearing glasses of any kind very often -- we've never seen a picture of them wearing glasses at all! But don't worry about the Queen, her Royal Highness wore a pair that was embellished with the letter Q in clear diamond Swarovski crystals. Look closely at the photograph here and you can see the distinctive capital "Q". File: Queen Elizabeth Swarovski Sunglasses
