Are you a dashing young royal who snubs centuries of tradition but is in tune with the modern world? Perhaps youre a loyal servant of the country and unlikely to ruffle any royal feathers. Or do your views on life reflect the character of Prince Philip - perceived by some as a cantankerous old sod? Take the test to discover your royal twin; then you can share the results with friends on Facebook.

Reviews:

The Telegraph - "This guide has been well put together and features a wide range of content, including an interactive map showing locations connected to the wedding. The Royal Personality Test is a must-do for those who secretly want to be in the monarchy."

CBC News - "Practical, complete with maps, schedules and other tools."

chipchick.com iPhone App of the Week - "The time and dedication put into this app is? well, either impressive or disconcerting...The app really kicks it into royal overdrive with the map feature, though. Every (and I mean every) place that is relevant to the couple is pointed out on a map, functioning as an interactive history of the lives of both people. It even points out the grocery store they frequent. There are droves of other little features and fun facts about the couple to explore, too."
