two launches today. we have the launch of the life lifeboat by william and katherine and we have more on the celebrity-saturated world that they are going to be living in. why are they putting her on a duty before she s even married? reporter: i think they ve learned many lessons from those when princess diana first joined the royal family. as you remember, diana was really thrown in the deep end, told go to wales, open a school, and absolutely given no guidance whatsoever. they re making sure katherine is well prepared. she s been with william for several years now, and he would have taught her exactly what she s got to look forward to in terms of being first a princess, then a queen. she s going to have many, many of these royal jobs. what we have today is a low-key event technically a low-key event, though you wouldn t say that if you saw the press here. a small event, launching a
lifeboat, on the island where they life. they re familiar with the territory and indeed this lifeboat station. what about souvenirs? are there any for this particular event, the lifeboat or some would hope for a love boat. reporter: no. you stole you stole my line. there are it s a very, very small island. but the souvenirs of william and katherine on sale in london, it s absolute saturation coverage. i even saw a football with william and katherine s emblem on the front. tea towels, and everything. and the cover, the saturation of the souvenirs will become even greater over the next few weeks. mark saunders, cnn s royal wedding contributor. freezing over there in wales. waiting for the world s hottest couple to arrive. thank you very much. you are watching world one live from london.
