The House of Windsor in England is home to a royal family. It was named after both the Duke and the Countess Of Longford. The current Countess of Longford is the granddaughter of the Duke of Windsor and a member of the Saxon House. The family has also given rise to three more children, including the current countess of Windsor Elizabeth Harman Longford and Andrew Roberts. It was renamed to the House of Windsor in 1797.
Saxon House
The most well-known office building in Windor is the Saxon House. It's centrally located in the business district. It's only a short walk away from Park Street, the High Street, and Park Street. It is well connected to the rest of the region by excellent road communications including the M4 smart motorway. Crossrail services are available at Windsor Central Station. Windsor and Saxon House are also within easy reach of the town's Riverside Station.
Queen Anne's Garden House
This charming Queen Anne's Garden House is set in a quiet location close to Windsor Castle and the town centre. The property dates back 1702 and features three double bedrooms. It has been sympathetically restored. The property successfully combines modern living with period elegance. It also includes a fully-equipped kitchen with towels. The garden has a willow and is well maintained. The property is in Taplow, a wealthy Thameside village. You can also commute to London and Heathrow Airport from the area.
This house was originally known as Frogmore House, and it was located half a mile away from Windsor Castle. Hugh May built this house on the estates of Henry VIII in the 1680s. Named after the local frogs, it was built by Hugh May in 1680s on estates purchased by Henry VIII. The Duke and Duchess later owned the house, followed by a succession of families until 1792 when Queen Charlotte took over the lease and transformed it into a retreat for herself and her children.
George V Memorial Fountain
House Windsor's George V Memorial Fountain is an outstanding example of great architecture of that era. This monument was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and unveiled by King George V on 23/04/37. Its symmetrical structure is surrounded by two fountains, each one shaped like a head, with a low cenotaph. In the 1880s, the fountain was part of the Acre Graveyard, and it was renovated in 1988 to mark the Queen's Golden Jubilee.
It is Windsor's most iconic statue. The fountain was dedicated in honor of King George V. He was the son of Alexandra from Denmark and Edward VII. The royal houses of Gotha and Saxe-Coburg were renamed by the future monarch to Windsor. George V died in Sandringham House (Norfolk) on 20/01/36. While a tomb was being constructed, his body was temporarily interred in the Royal Vault beneath the Albert Memorial Chapel.
Duke of Windsor
The duke, duchess and their bodies were buried side-by side in Frogmore on the grounds Windsor Castle. The episode is based on historical events. However, the show does take some liberties. In fact the duke was so sick that it was impossible for him to attend the tea which was hosted by his spouse. But the duchess was able to take part in the proceedings. She was even buried beside her husband.
Edward VIII was created in 1896. He was the son and heir of King George V who became British sovereign in 2010. He served as a military staff officer in World War I and was later the Prince of Wales. His popularity among the public increased in the years prior to his father's abdication. He was also a Royal Family member, serving until his passing in 1936.

Is Hollywood more important than Bollywood?
Producing films that are well-received is the most difficult challenge.
Problem is, there are many films competing for viewers' time and money. The problem is that you will not be seen if you aren't different from the rest.
But what makes a movie great? What makes an actor a star? Or a director? It's not only talent, but also luck. The best actors may be the best, but they will not succeed if they are writing bad scripts.
There are two types of films: independent productions and blockbuster movies with big budgets. Production and distribution of blockbuster movies costs hundreds of millions. These blockbuster movies are usually produced by big studios who want their movies to reach as broad an audience as possible. However, these films with big budgets appeal mostly to older viewers.
Independent films are usually smaller productions that can be funded by investors or individuals. These films often focus on niche markets and cater to specific tastes. These films are typically less expensive to produce and sell. But, they aren't necessarily cheaper to view. It is actually very difficult to find most indie movies.
Is it possible to have both types of films? Do we need big blockbuster movies and small independent ones? Hollywood is bigger than Bollywood, according to me. Hollywood produces nearly twice as many movies annually as India.
How much does it cost for a feature movie to be distributed?
A typical distribution deal costs between $100,000-$150,000.
The average cost of a theater is approximately $10,000
The average cost per screen is around $5,000.
If you have 100 screens, your distribution fee will be about $500,000.
If you have ten screens, your distribution fees would be $50,000.
Why is Hollywood calling this Hollywood?
D.W. Griffith was the one who founded California's first film industry. It was named for its Los Angeles location, also known as Hollywood at that time.
Because it was such a fascinating place, people kept coming back for more. People came from all parts of the country to see what was going on there.
Hollywood is still an integral part of American culture. There are movies, TV shows, music videos and commercials. These are all known as Hollywood.
