Everyone Gets Some Yuletide Cheer Around Here
On Christmas Day, five Christmas dinners—loaded with calories—are served at the Sandringham home. The first is the one for the junior staff which is served at 11:00 AM. This is followed by another at noon for the senior footmen. Then a little later in the afternoon, the royal family has their Christmas dinner at 1:15 PM. The junior staffers in the kitchen then get to have their meal at 2:15 PM. The last on the list is the royal chef. After everyone else is fed and his major duties for the day basically complete, he has his lunch at 4:00 PM. So everyone gets to enjoy some Christmas cheer.
