At first glance they might seem to have little in common.
One is the brusque, no-nonsense sister of the King, famous for her straight talking approach to royal duties.
The other is her softer-edged sister-in-law, popular thanks to her feminine style and sympathetic manner.
But the Princess Royal and the Duchess of Edinburgh share an impressive work ethic - so it was probably inevitable they would find themselves working in tandem at some point.

Anne and Sophie have rarely been paired in this way, yet they seemed to have an easy rapport and were an an instant hit with fans on social media.
