"I think the future of the monarchy is really well set," Bullen said. "I've made programs with the royal family and we've talked to them about how they operate a 100-year plan. They're not even thinking about when William takes over or even when George takes over. It's when George's grandchildren take over, so they're always thinking 100 years ahead."

"I think people in Britain really want the royal family still," he added. "The other options just aren't really things that we'd consider."
He cited a survey that looked at what Americas thought of the royal family, where 34 million Americans said they were avid royal fans, while another 35 million said they were truly fascinated by the royal family.
