    • Pattie Boydová - jedna z módních ikon zlatých šedesátých let - prožila výjimečný život v blízkosti výjimečných lidí. K jejím přátelům patřili přední fotografové, výtvarníci, módní návrháři, hudebníci z neopakovatelné éry rodícího se bigbeatu i slavné modelky. Setkala se také s Elvisem Presleym, Steviem Wonderem, Bobem Dylanem a dalšími. Její život byl plný dramatických zvratů - zakusila i hodně trápení - ale jak sama říká, kdyby měla tu možnost, nezměnila by jediný den.

The relationship between Charles, Prince of Wales and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, is one of the most remarkable love stories of the age.
