Sorry for the short notice, but I've only just noticed this

Firstly though, an explanation for non - British members. Any company that supplies the British Royal Family, their households, and their palaces can use that fact as part of their advertising and company profile, though they are expected to be suitably discrete and British about it. It can range from the mundane, like cleaning products to expensive items like exclusive clothing or jewellery. It's called 'by Royal Appointment'

On Monday 13 th June, 8-30 pm on BBC4 there is a programme called 'Handmade: by Royal Appointment'

It features John Lobb, a London shoemaker who still make shoes by traditional methods like hand carving a wooden last; wet forming the leather; then hand sewing

I expect it can be found after that date for 28 days? on the BBC website, BBC iPlayer
