King Charles shows ‘same trait’ as Queen in TV cameo

Filmed when he was the Prince of Wales, Charles made a cameo on last night’s episode of The Repair Shop. Fans were given a glimpse into the monarch’s daily life, learning that he takes his tea (Earl Grey) with honey and a splash of milk, and that he carries a pair of secateurs around his property, in case he spots something that needs pruning.Judi James studied the King’s body language on the show, claiming that he looked relaxed and happy to be there – this is no surprise, she said, as the royal likes performing. This is a trait Charles shared with the Queen, but the late monarch did not flaunt it in public like him. She told Express.co.uk: “Charles has always been a very keen performer and entertainer, appearing on stage in comedy sketches during his years at Cambridge University and seemingly happy to ad lib or throw in his own one-liners ever since.”This means he is guaranteed to find an appearance on a programme like this well within his comfort zone.”Judi compared Charles to Queen Elizabeth, pondering: “Would his mother have ever been shown in a similar way?”READ MORE: ‘Key’ to fight 80% of skin ageing – stop ‘wrinkles and volume loss’ Charles appeared on The Repair Shop in a special episode (Image: GETTY/BBC)She continued: “The late Queen also had a love of performing, but it was a skill she mainly kept inside the family.”There is very little on record of her making relaxed small-talk or cracking jokes, and her memorable TV performances, with Paddington Bear and James Bond, were made even more show-stopping because of this.”It would be easy to imagine her visiting the set of a show like The Repair Shop, but hard to imagine her joining in the show in the way that her son does.”Charles’ suppressed smiles and grins, with his mouth pulled down slightly at the corners, and his constant eye-smiles, show he is enjoying himself enormously.DON’T MISS:Daily 95p skincare hack to ‘lessen the appearance of wrinkles’ [BEAUTY] Stop common daily habit that leaves neck with ‘age spots’ [EXPERT] Face yoga massage to reduce eye wrinkles and de-puff skin [ANTI-AGEING]  Charles spoke about the importance of apprenticeships (Image: BBC) Jay was shown around Dumfries House (Image: BBC)Charles chose two items for restoration: an 18th century bracket clock and a Wemyss Ware vase made for Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee.After much work, the valuable objects were returned to the King.The programme ended with Jay talking to Charles over two mugs of tea, embellished with the letters “J” and “HRH”, and the treasures examined.Charles seemed overjoyed that his clock had got its chime back and that the battered vase had been transformed, looking like new.
