UK: SANDRINGHAM: ROYAL FAMILY ATTEND CHURCH SERVICE

(25 Dec 2000) Natural Sound XFA The Queen Mother spread Christmas cheer when she braved the freezing temperatures to attend the traditional morning service at St Mary Magdalene's. The 100-year-old Royal, who is recovering from breaking her collar bone last month, ignored the Queen's advice not to venture out. The Queen had been concerned that attending church for the second consecutive day, would be too much for her frail mother. Yesterday, the Queen, Queen Mother, Prince William, 18, and other senior Royals were at St Mary Magdalene's for a special, televised service at which the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr George Carey, gave a sermon. Like yesterday, the Queen Mother arrived in a "Queen Mum Mobile" golf buggy. She was then helped into the church by an attentive Prince of Wales. After the 40-minute service, the Queen and Queen Mother were handed flowers from local children, including two-year-old toddler Adam Panter (correct) from King's Lynn. The Prince of Wales, and the Earl of Wessex and his wife Sophie also chatted to people in wheelchairs from a nearby nursing home. But the Royal walkabout was shorter than in previous years and the crowd, at about 1,000 strong, was half the size of last year. The Princess Royal's teenage daughter Zara Phillips showed signs of the crash on Friday when her Land Rover clipped a wall and overturned on to its roof on a foggy country lane in Gloucestershire. Nineteen-year-old Zara's nose and lip were cut but she escaped more serious injury. Altogether 19 Royals attended the Christmas morning church service but Princess Margaret, 70, did not make an appearance.
