...about the stables, photographing anything that moves," according to the Queen's press secretary. At one point, the reporters threatened to upset a Shetland pony carrying the Queen's three-year-old grandson Peter. These breaches of protocol produced some rare cracks in Her Majesty's regal facade. "I wish you would go away," she snapped at swarming newshounds. Prince Charles, too, had some unusually sharp words when he addressed a group of Fleet Street's finest. "I take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy New Year," he said with a bitter grin...
...final week and a half of the trial had been devoted exclusively to the star defendant, Jiang Qing, 67, the fearsome Mme. Mao.

By 7 p.m. most weekday evenings a hush falls over the carpeted upstairs hallways and regal, mahogany-trimmed smoking rooms.
