The third programme in the ITV Choice Royal
Season for 2019 is Harry and Meghan: The
First Tour, which will broadcast on the channel (DStv 123) on Wednesday,
June 5, 2019, at 20h00.
Six months on from their fairytale wedding
at Windsor Castle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex set off on their first
official Royal Tour, and in this hour-long special, ITV's Royal Editor Chris
Ship follows the Royal couple on their epic 16-day trip across the South
Pacific, taking in the stunning sights of Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New
Zealand.
Kicking off with the Invictus Games in
Sydney, the programme takes an in-depth look at issues highlighted by the tour
and which lie close to the couples’ hearts.
The royal couple received a warm welcome
wherever they went and attracted huge crowds, moving many royal fans to tears
as they caught a glimpse of their idols.
On a visit to the Pukeahu National War
Memorial Park in Wellington, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were met with
sobbing fans holding welcome banners who were unable to contain their emotion.
Almost all major Australian newspapers had
the couple on their front pages when they arrived in Sydney in mid-October,
along with triumphant congratulations for their baby news, and Harry and Meghan
were dubbed the 'world's power couple of 2018'.
