March 2nd saw Sir Brady Halls KCRO, journalist/reporter for Channel Nine, cameraman Mr. Neil Darby and sound engineer Richard Glover from "A Current Affair" visit the Principality to catch up with HRH Prince Leonard and news of the 40th Anniversary and what is planned for the Anniversary weekend.

Sir Brady was knighted some years ago for services to journalism so it was decided by HRH that before he left Sir Brady should complete the bestowal of the award by receiving Sir Brady in the Chapel of Nain where a "proper presentation" could be made by seeing that Sir Brady was "dubbed with the Sword".

It was a particularly HORRIFIC hot day for these 3 gentlemen to have to visit, work and hold it together for the camera but given the professionals that they all are the job got done. In many of the photo's it is easy to make out just how hot and uncomfortable it was for these blokes and I must say that it was an outstanding effort that all 3 were able to remain professional and get the job done under the most difficult and trying conditions.

The photo's below were "snapped" as they worked between "action" filming around the place and include photo's of Sir Brady at the end receiving the Sword and his Jewel.
