The Weekend Australian reprints a story from the London Times, with a fresh headline "Camilla, queen of the desert shopping", which will resonate with movie buffs . The Australian's print version also includes a photo very similar to this one from the Chicago Tribune, depicting the royal couple looking like characters from a novel by Evelyn Waugh, Anthony Powell, Olivia Manning or Graham Greene (any other suggestions?). Or do they most closely resemble Edward and Mrs Simpson?
For all its levity the article does touch upon some serious points about exploitation of workers in the third world. Even the obsequious media camp followers such as Hello magazine aren't really able to dodge this one despite their best efforts with word processor and camera.
