> I would have thought Edward is the twittier one. He is also the one who did not get a Dukedom when he got married. He has the lower rank of being an Earl, though he will become a Duke when both his parents have died. (Charles was already Duke of Cornwall by virtue of being the monarch's oldest son.) Andrew saw active service as a helicopter pilot in the Falklands War - letting Exocet missiles home in on him and then climbing so they passed below him thus protecting the ships.
