When a man sees a princess in distress, it is only right that he dashes to her aid.
But he had better watch where he is putting his hands...
Yesterday, the Princess Royal slipped and fell while on a walkabout in front of crowds in Guernsey.
Immediately the island's bailiff, Geoffrey Rowland, rushed to help her to her feet. But his offer was not well received.
"No, don't do that, thank-you. Grabbing me round my ... ( inaudible) won't help," Princess Anne, 56, said. "I'm perfectly capable of getting myself up."
Last night it was unclear which part of her Mr Rowland, head of the Channel Island's legal and political system, may have 'grabbed'.
However, pictures appeared to show him supporting her by her upper arm or shoulder.
