I understand that most members of the British royal family, and for that matter aristocracy, would have to be watered daily if their IQs were only a tidbit lower. Altman's film _Gosford Park_ portrays that royal idiocy quite nicely.

What is the big attraction of the royal family in the UK, anyway? European response to Disney cartoon characters? Any comments? David? Anyone?
