Election as a Fellow of AAAS is a lifetime honor, but it comes with an expectation that recipients maintain commonly held standards of professional ethics and scientific integrity. In the rare case that an elected Fellow no longer meets this expectation or otherwise fails to merit the continued status of Fellow, one or more AAAS Members can participate in a revocation process, which will determine whether the individual’s Fellow status should be rescinded. The new class hails from academic institutions, laboratories and observatories, hospitals and medical research centers, museums, corporations, nonprofit organizations, institutes and government agencies. One could immediately say that these aren't really secrets; instead, they are simply common sense-and that would be a fair point. The truth of the matter is that when it comes to the basics of human nature, there are no secrets. As we are told in the Old Testament's Book of Ecclesiastes, "there is no new thing under the sun."

The interviews are based on both the interests of the Fellows themselves, and the interests and needs of the Executive Branch offices. National Finalists participate in "Selection Weekend," which is three evenings and two days of interviews with members of the President's Commission on White House Fellowships. National Finalists who are selected as Fellows will need to come to Washington, DC in July to interview for a work placement. In order to get the proper security clearance for the fellowship, individuals with dual citizenship would need to give up any non-U.S. Applicants should apply online by visiting the program website (/fellows).

The purpose of the program is to provide insight into the workings of the Federal government so that Fellows can return to their communities to lead and serve.

Opinion: My mother set herself on fire. Why do people choose to self-immolate?

One organizer complained that the White House Correspondents' Association - which represents the hundreds of journalists who cover the president - largely has been silent since the first weeks of the war about the killings of Palestinian journalists. Protest organizers said they wanted to bring attention to the high numbers of Palestinian and other Arab journalists killed by Israel's military since the war began in October. The night's remarks also were expected to cast a spotlight on the many journalists detained and otherwise persecuted around the globe for doing their jobs, including Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who has been imprisoned in Russia since March 2023. Kelly O'Donnell, president of the correspondents' association, opened the event by reminding the audience of the important work that journalists do but noting that the dinner is happening at "a complex moment for our nation," and in a decisive election year. In previous years, Biden, like most of his predecessors, has used the glitzy annual White House Correspondents' Association gala to needle media coverage of his administration and jab at political rivals, notably Republican rival Donald Trump. The Yale psychology professor has been appointed to an influential group charged with directly advising the president and the White House on science, technology, and innovation.

In some cases, an investigator will contact you directly to schedule a personal interview. Investigators also may contact employers, neighbors, friends, and relatives. Applicants are required to submit a minimum of three, but no more than five, references.

At the time Fellows are appointed, appropriate clearances are certified by the Executive Office of the President and then issued by the department or agency to which Fellows are assigned. If it appears that a clearance will not be possible, a National Finalist will be notified by the Program Director and will not attend the Selection Weekend process. Regional Finalists are required to submit comprehensive background information, as Fellows must be qualified to pass a top secret security clearance. Once this information is submitted, background investigations will commence.

When the lights go out, a doll named Pepi Nana, who bears a resemblance to the human child, gets out of bed and writes a letter to the Moon. Moon Baby, who has a royal presence and lives in a cavern there, receives it, flies down to Earth and wakes the dollhouse with his lunar glow. “Moon,” which originates from the BBC’s children’s channel CBeebies, is a night show, obviously, where “Teletubbies” is very much about the day. And where earlier series featured grown humans gamboling in costume, the new one is made as puppet animation, the most magical of animated mediums.

The U.S. attorney’s office kept the water case because it involved possible theft of federal property. In June 2016, the California state controller announced a review of the water district’s finances. In September 2015, according to a criminal complaint later filed in state court, a private investigator walked into the Fresno office of the FBI. The investigator, who was working for a farmer angry about his water rates, had been digging into Panoche’s records and said he had come across evidence that the water district was playing loose with public funds. Democrats held a five-percentage-point registration advantage as of late February and Biden won the plurality-Asian district in 2020, but despite the registration advantage, Republicans turned out in higher numbers than Democrats in the 2022 midterms.

California “is, along with New York, one of the two most important paths to potential Democratic control of the House,” said Dave Wasserman, senior editor and elections analyst for the nonpartisan Cook Political Report. Gambino said the Glassell Park area where the home is located is popular among artists, musicians and actors. Many people who fit the bill have come to see the house, but it has also attracted a wider range of potential buyers like a chef who would use it entertain, and other business people who are interested in the home as a piece of art. The 83 matching properties for sale in California have an average listing price of $3,271,763 and price per acre of $55,307. For more nearby real estate, explore land for sale in California.

Juxtapose City and Country

The district at the northern edge of Los Angeles County’s suburban sprawl was staunchly Republican territory for more than a quarter-century before 2018’s blue wave, when a young, dynamic candidate flipped the seat and helped retake Democratic control of the House. While Republicans currently have a razor-thin majority in the House, partisan makeup of next year’s Congress will almost certainly be decided this November — at least in part — by a handful of hypercompetitive California races. Putman said the architect does not design much anymore, but she believes this is one of his greatest homes. The home at 2538 Sundown Drive is for sale at $2.3 million, listed by Compass agents Carl Gambino and Ariel Putman, and was recently shared on real estate fan account Zillow Gone Wild.

Robert Zavala was fresh out of the Marines and looking to escape dead-end work at a poultry plant in the early 1990s when his old baseball coach — now the head of a local water district — swooped to the rescue with a job offer. The district has a slight Latino majority, with white voters also accounting for nearly 40% of the electorate, according to data from California Target Book. It includes cities like Madera, Ceres and Merced and portions of Modesto and Turlock, as well as rural swaths of the San Joaquin Valley.

The rematch between Republican Rep. Ken Calvert and Democrat Will Rollins is one of several 2024 California races that will help determine which party controls the House. The fact that Tran is the son of Vietnamese immigrants and has a Vietnamese surname could help him build name recognition but won’t be determinative, DeSipio said. The district includes Orange County’s Little Saigon and Vietnamese Americans account for about 17% of voters, according to Political Data, Inc. The coastal Orange County district includes the cities of Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Irvine and Newport Beach. It’s a majority white district, with not insubstantial Asian and Latino populations.

Two-story rolling shades reduce solar gain from the southern-facing windows and provide additional privacy and security. The firm was careful to avoid disturbing the land, including the property's rock walls. Prosecutors have accused Dennis Falaschi, 77, a gregarious local irrigation official, of masterminding the theft of more than $25 million worth of water out of a federal canal over the course of two decades and selling it to farmers and other local water districts. According to the allegations, proceeds that should have gone to the federal government instead were used to benefit Falaschi, his water district and a small group of co-conspirators, much of it funneled into exorbitant salaries and lavish fringe benefits. Architect Stephen Potters designed floor-to-ceiling modern farmhouse-style windows and designer Brittany Bromley coated the frames in Farrow & Ball’s Railings to showcase both sunny and snowy days.

Opt for White Slipcovered Chairs

The judge, however, refused to toss four felony charges against Falaschi, and the case remains active pending the outcome of the federal proceedings. For a time, Falaschi became the public face of the Kesterson “fix,” meeting with visiting dignitaries and earnest reporters to tout the potential of his projects. When it was time to go to work, Falaschi followed his father into irrigation, according to an oral history he gave to Fresno State University, and landed with the Panoche Water District in the 1980s. In and around Los Banos, the pursuit of water has been the key to power and wealth for more than a century. Henry Miller, the “Cattle King of California,” became one of the largest landowners in the U.S. in the late 19th century because he was able to gain the rights to a great deal of water across the San Joaquin Valley.

Available to the architecturally inclined for event and vacation rentals, the home is defined by simple angular geometries and flooded with natural light.

But all that water — now mixed with heavy concentrations of naturally occurring salts and minerals, as well as agricultural chemicals — had to go somewhere. Because the area’s groundwater aquifers are shallow, bound by a thick clay layer, the water couldn’t drain deep into the earth. Once a safely ruby-red Republican domain, California’s 22nd Congressional District is in a part of the San Joaquin Valley that has grown increasingly purple in recent years, with Democrats now holding the registration advantage.

The probe was so widespread, according to testimony in a 2019 civil case, that eventually almost every employee was interviewed. In 2011, the Bureau of Reclamation awarded Panoche a $4-million grant to pursue “demonstration projects,” including water treatment technology that supposedly could reduce selenium concentrations. The federal government agreed to fund a treatment plant, and over the next several years would funnel $67 million into the project, according to a 2019 federal audit. In 1985, a judge ordered the government to stop shunting drainage water to Kesterson. The Westlands Water District eventually sued, asserting the Bureau of Reclamation had promised to provide drainage when it built the Central Valley Project. A federal court agreed, potentially putting the federal government on the hook for more than $2 billion to fix the problem.

The two-bed, two-bath home sits on a quarter-acre lot, and Putman boasted the gardens and terraces as a draw for potential buyers. Plus, it has a great view of the city, she said, making it the ultimate LA outdoor space. Designed by LA architect William King and built in 1982, the listing comes with several gathering spaces in and around the home, with charming gardens, a wraparound deck and a garage that could be used as studio space.

He had donated steak for staff cookouts, and Walsh had seen him gifting people with tickets to Oakland Raiders games. Once in the Panoche system, according to the allegations, the purloined water was sold to farmers or sent back to the canal in exchange for credits. To account for the bounty, Falaschi had employees classify the stolen water as reclaimed runoff from area farms, according to the indictment.

The ranching empire he founded with Charles Lux was headquartered in Los Banos, and many believe its ethos of pursuing water at all costs is built into the DNA of the place. The San Joaquin Valley contains some of the most fertile farmland on Earth. But it is also largely dry, particularly on its western side, far from the rivers that pour out of the Sierra Nevada. Falaschi had grown up near Los Banos, and in the way of small towns, Walsh knew him from many settings. Falaschi, a standout high school athlete in his youth and later a coach, had refereed some of Walsh’s son’s football games.

Issues regarding water — including water access for agriculture, as well as water quality and water availability in wells — will also be crucial, along with healthcare access issues, said Thomas Holyoke, a professor of political science at Fresno State University. Democrats have a narrow registration advantage, although no party preference registrants account for nearly a quarter of voters. Biden won the district by more than 10 percentage points over Trump in 2020, according to data from California Target Book.

That puts the region at greater risk of damaging floods — and in greater need of taxpayer bailouts. From that day forward, Falaschi allegedly instructed workers — at least seven over the years — to go out, often at night, and divert water through the illicit connection into the district’s water system. Falaschi and other employees professed their innocence, and in 2020 a judge dismissed some of the charges.

Two years ago, this was the second-closest House race in the nation, with Duarte winning by just 564 votes. It will be one of the most avidly watched races in the country again this year. The majority of the district remains on Calvert’s home turf of the Inland Empire, but the desert additions now give it one of the largest concentrations of LGBTQ+ voters in the nation. With Porter and her whiteboard out of the picture after a failed Senate bid, the former GOP Assembly leader’s competition appears less formidable this time around. The Democratic challenger, state Sen. Dave Min, has little of Porter’s star power. During the March primary, fellow Democrat Joanna Weiss also battered him over a 2023 DUI arrest, a controversy Baugh and Republicans are expected to focus on during the November election.

Juxtapose City and Country

“It has a modern farmhouse feel without being a cliché,” notes homeowner Christina Desser of her California home designed by architects Lewis Butler and Dave Sturm. While the classic H-shaped layout and gabled roof nod to American tradition, the clean lines, casement-style windows and custom-colored stucco façade were inspired by Mexican architect Luis Barragán. In fact, The New York Times even calls the modern farmhouse “the millennial answer to the baby boomer McMansion.” Regardless if you’re in favor or against this clean-lined style, you can’t deny its impact on the architecture and design industry. See how these 17 exteriors and interiors define the post-agrarian look. In the kitchen, showcasing a modern farmhouse design, the soaring ceilings are highlighted by custom details such as warm wooden trusses, floor-to-ceiling shiplap paneling, and a bespoke black-and-brass range hood by Raw Urth Designs. Sleek cabinets by Tharp Custom Cabinetry and a pair of Luna Bella lanterns provide more elegant notes in the space.

Ventura County farmer and former water board member pleads guilty to water theft

A metal roof, board-and-batten siding—painted Benjamin Moore’s White Dove (designer Sondra Ganz’s personal never-fail shade of white)—and black-trimmed windows by Sierra Pacific Windows strike classic California modern farmhouse notes. The stone structure calls to mind traditional farmhouse design but is contemporary in spirit, with its polished concrete floors and sleek finishes. Clad in steel panels and IPE wood siding, the 1,000-square-foot extension also boasts a number of sustainable features, including a reflective roof membrane and motorized skylights.

In April 2022, seven years after Walsh went to his bosses with his suspicions, a federal grand jury returned a five-count indictment accusing Falaschi of orchestrating a decades-long theft of government water and lying about his income on his taxes. In 2016 alone, according to the indictment, Falaschi took in nearly $900,000 in salary and unreported income. So the government built a drainage system that funneled excess water via a canal to evaporation ponds inside Kesterson, on the theory that the ponds would provide additional refuge for birds. It takes water from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and delivers that water — over 117 concrete-lined miles — to vast stretches of farmland in Fresno and Merced counties. The canal transformed life in this region when it began operating in the 1950s. San Joaquin Valley farmers are already fighting stricter irrigation limits as the state looks to ensure healthy water flows for wildlife and curb groundwater pumping that is causing portions of the valley to sink.

The Panoche Water District is supposed to purchase federal water by the acre-foot at set rates, drawing it from the Delta-Mendota Canal through metered gates. The water district combines that water with other sources and uses its irrigation system to distribute water to farmers. Any water it doesn’t use is supposed to be delivered back to the Delta-Mendota for water credits.

Falaschi was a young boy in Dos Palos in southern Merced County when the Central Valley Project began pumping clean, clear water from Northern California to irrigate the valley. He saw firsthand how the arrival of cheap federal water changed everything. But Falaschi’s father was not one of the big farmers who could scoop up acres of newly irrigated land and get rich off the water project. He worked for the San Luis Canal Co. and grew what he could on the side. He got the sense that Falaschi ran his water district with tight control and that his 30 or so employees were a close-knit group, some of them players Falaschi had coached. Falaschi was also tight with some of Walsh’s colleagues at the water authority.

The idea that a water official may have been stealing supplies would only make it more difficult for farmers to secure the water they needed in the years ahead. When the federal indictment was handed down in 2022, the allegations riveted this community. Because in this dusty and often forgotten part of California, water has never come easy and the quest to transform an arid valley into a hothouse of agricultural bounty has led to environmental catastrophe and decades of strife. Zavala was grateful for the job, which eventually paid more than $150,000 a year and included perks such as free housing and a new truck. Grateful enough, he later testified in state court, that when he learned the public agency he worked for was stealing water from the federal government he kept his mouth shut.

No party preference voters account for more than a fifth of the electorate. In 2018, state prosecutors filed felony charges against Falaschi and four other employees. Falaschi was charged with a host of misspending, including buying two Reno slot machines with his district credit card. An employee was accused of spending more than $4,000 of district money on a kitchen remodel.

Suddenly, farmers who had been eking out a living with small yields were buying up large tracts of land. Tomatoes, cotton, cantaloupe and squash burst from the fields, part of the bounty that enables this valley to produce nearly half the fruits and nuts grown in the U.S. “It’s a little bit of algebra, a whole lotta math,” he said of the various checks he would do, often in the sweltering heat.

It was the deadliest day for U.S. law enforcement in one incident since five officers were killed by a sniper during a protest in Dallas in 2016. The male suspect exited the residence on Galway Drive with a firearm. Law enforcement officers perceived an imminent deadly threat and fired their service weapons striking the suspect in the front yard of the residence. The bloodshed — the deadliest day for US law enforcement in a single incident since 2016 — erupted as Marshals approached the home to serve Clark Hughes Jr with a warrant for possessing a firearm. Speaking outside the smoking building, the fire quickly engulfed the site even as workers fled.

The officers were from multiple agencies.

Frontline staff members put their lives on the line every day, and that selflessness extends outside the workplace. Mayor Lyles confirmed the death of Demonte Sherrill, which other sources had also previously confirmed. Jennings said police assisted Charlotte Fire with traffic control, as well as with the evacuation process.

More than 90 firefighters 'heroically' rescued 15 workers from massive South Park fire

They noticed the side of the building was smoking, so they started yelling out of the window, but the firefighters couldn't hear them. The witness said, at that point, they started taking video of the smoke. For the latest breaking news, weather and traffic alerts, download the WCNC Charlotte mobile app.

Firefighters were able to rescue a crane operator who had been trapped high above the smoke and flames. The North Carolina Department of Adult Correction identified two of the task force officers killed as Sam Poloche and Alden Elliot. A second person then started pumping bullets from inside the home and some of the officers who rushed to the scene to rescue the first wave of downed officers were wounded, Jennings added. Witnesses and social media video described spectacularly high flames, leaping 50 feet in the air.

There are concerns that the entire structure is unstable and could collapse, the captain said.

Four law enforcement officers killed while serving warrant in North Carolina

Firefighters rescued 15 construction workers from the fire, including one person who was stuck on top of a crane. Johnson said that firefighters had to set up hose lines to protect the crane before they could go and make the rescue. By Thursday evening, not much of the apartment building remained. Many of the construction workers said there were crews on every floor of the building. They said when the flames sparked, the workers themselves tried to put out the fire. But because of how quickly it spread, it was impossible for the workers to get it under control.

Photos tweeted by the department show flames and heavy black smoke shooting out of what appears to be a residential building under construction as crews attempt to battle the blaze. The crane operator, among the 15 people rescued by firefighters, was treated by local EMS for non life-threatening injuries and taken to a hospital, fire officials reported. Firefighters in North Carolina rescued at least 15 people including a crane operator Thursday after a five-alarm fire involving injuries broke out at a construction site near downtown Charlotte. Videos and images shared on social media show bright orange flames engulfing part of a large building complex in the North Carolina city's South Park neighborhood, an area known for its large namesake shopping center. Additional footage taken by CBS affiliate WBTV captured a thick plume of black smoke rising up from the burning structure.

Both of the victims were officially identified by the Charlotte Fire Department on Tuesday. Fire investigators have confirmed the fire began accidentally. The fire was started by a trailer that was spraying insulation material as part of the construction efforts. The charred remains of the building are still deemed "unsafe" Friday and emergency personnel are on the scene monitoring hot spots.

Johnson said two workers remained unaccounted for at the time of the news conference, citing confirmation from the construction site foreman. "We mourn for them and their loved ones. And we pray for the recoveries of the courageous officers who were wounded," the president said in a statement. He also called for more funding for law enforcement and for Congress to do more to combat gun violence. Marshals task force was serving a warrant at a home Monday in Charlotte, North Carolina, officials said. Within an hour of starting, the fire was escalated to a five-alarm situation.

— Charlotte city officials confirmed that two people died in the five-alarm fire that ignited Thursday morning in the South Park area of Charlotte. Johnson also confirmed that two "maydays" were issued after firefighters had issues getting out of the fire while rescuing some of the construction workers. CHARLOTTE — A massive fire broke out Thursday morning at an apartment complex under construction in the SouthPark area of Charlotte, killing at least one person. In July 2016, four police officers and one transit officer were killed in downtown Dallas after an armed sniper opened fire during a demonstration against fatal shootings by the police. The police killed the gunman with an explosive sent by a remote-controlled robot.

The fire spread to construction across the street and a number of nearby rooftops, which were all put out by the fire department, Johnson said. Two people were found dead in Charlotte, North Carolina, Friday in the aftermath of a five-alarm fire, officials said. In North Carolina, firefighters are working to contain the Poplar Drive Fire in Henderson County. The fire has burned over 400 acres, including two homes.

The deaths of Sherrill and Holmes came after an apartment complex still under construction burst into flames on Thursday morning after a spray foam insulation trailer caught fire. (WBTV) - The Charlotte Fire Department has identified the two men killed in the massive construction fire in south Charlotte’s SouthPark neighborhood last week. Several neighbors managed to capture the terror as officers scrambled to seek cover and heavily-armed law enforcement started returning fire with snipers. The fire swept through the building in minutes, sending workers running. Fifteen workers were rescued, and two companies of firefighters had to transmit "maydays" to be rescued themselves.

The fire was mostly extinguished as of noon, though firefighters were still spraying hot spots. There was ash all over the ground, and traffic was stopped on many surrounding streets. A construction worker who was trapped in a crane when the fire broke out has been rescued, Queen City News reports. A construction worker said the seven-story building was set to become an apartment community called Modera SouthPark, according to WCNC.

On TODAY, Arséma Thomas shared how honored she was to be playing the same character that Adjoa Andoh brought to life so beautifully in Bridgerton.

'Bridgerton' Showrunner Teases Who Will Lead Season 4: "There Are Some Clues"

“He is perfection,” she finally allows, after George firmly shuts down her questioning. Now, you'd be forgiven for thinking that Bridgerton was going the way of Breaking Bad—many fans were plenty confused as to what exactly Her Majesty was enjoying But what was she sniffing exactly? So, it’ll come as no surprise that Queen Charlotte A Bridgerton Story has topped the Netflix chart – so, here’s everything you need to know about Shonda Rhimes’ prequel series.

Shonda Rhimes Reportedly “Committed” To Adapting All Eight 'Bridgerton' Novels For Netflix Series

Netflix’s steamy hit Bridgerton takes place in a fantasy version of Regency era England where lords and ladies dance to string versions of Madonna’s “Material Girl” and true love conquers all. The show’s unique approach to race relations was inspired by the very real historical theory that Queen Charlotte was mixed race. This means that England could have been ruled over by a Black woman centuries before Prince Harry fell hard for the biracial Meghan Markle.

It is regulated in the same way as other tobacco products, including age restrictions, and can also be found online. All forms of snuff still have the same health risks as tobacco, including nicotine addiction and an increased risk of cancer. These are private homes, which means you can’t really go and visit them.

The Queen's Ball: A Bridgerton Experience

Blenheim Palace, located just outside of Oxford, stands in for Buckingham Palace—then called Buckingham House—on the series. First, there's Queen Charlotte snorting "snuff" in various scenes. The snuff would have been a finely powdered tobacco that often was flavored to add a different scent, and the Queen had such a snuff habit, so much that her nickname was "Snuffy Charlotte."

Whatever that thing is one his jacket, it’s not interesting enough to overcome the boringness of the look. Elsewhere, Lady Danbury and Lord Ledger AKA Violet Bridgerton’s father end their relationship that started after the death of Lord Danbury. Whilst she courts Queen Charlotte’s brother, Adolphus, she ultimately rejects his marriage proposal and opts to stay single. But, Queen Charlotte makes sure Lady Danbury can still keep her titles and her husband’s estates, saving her future and that of other members of the ton. In the present-day, Violet learns about her father and Lady Danbury’s past relationship but seemingly forgives her. In the final episode, Charlotte and George are reunited again after she dismisses the doctor for putting George under severe treatment and they confess their love for each other despite his health issues.

Richert says that most tonics and pills were said to improve a person's health in some way. Some tonics made with cocaine were advertised to help soothe the nerves, combat hunger and thirst, or just as a general "pick-me-up." But there was no snuff to be found on the set of “Bridgerton,” which was filmed at a number of historic homes in England. While acting as Queen Charlotte in the midst of her favorite habit, Rosheuvel inhaled a kind of sugar which looked like snuff.

Lady Danbury watches as the Queen entertains herself by snorting what appears to be cocaine—and I, for one, was more than a little confused. Bridgerton season two brought back all the excitement from season one, and then some. Lady Whistledown returned in her full glory, with lots of gossip to share and secrets to keep. And since new episodes just dropped on Friday, there are already plenty of questions that need answers. You’ll recognize Lady Danbury’s house, the Bridgerton family’s London homestead, and certain parts of Bath used to represent the ton from the original series in both flash-forwards and the regular storyline. The studio that production uses is called Shepperton Studios.

Wait, What Is The Queen Sniffing On 'Bridgerton'? What The Show Gets Right About Drugs In Regency England

Rosheuvel explained that the Queen is using snuff, an early form of tobacco ingested through the nose. The real Queen Charlotte's snuff habit earned her the nickname "Snuffy Charlotte." As the wealthiest character in "Bridgerton," Queen Charlotte (Golda Rosheuvel) can easily buy anything she wants — and she does. In season two of "Bridgerton," the monarch shows off her jewel collection and sits with her Pomeranians. Bridgerton's second season is an eight-episode Regency romp full of longing glances, glorious jewels, and yes, drugs. We’re not really sure why she’s there, but this is a pretty fun, sexy look.

Charlotte apologizes to George multiple times and addresses him as “Your Majesty” but George corrects her. They share a sweet moment where George shares information about himself with Charlotte. After listing several more things about himself, George bids Charlotte goodbye and tells her that he hopes to see her at the altar.

She also tells Charlotte that she can call on her whenever she needs her before leaving with her husband. Then, George tells Charlotte that he has a surprise for her. The mysterious man walks up to Charlotte and asks her what she’s doing. Charlotte replies by saying she’s trying to climb over the garden wall because she doesn’t want to marry the King who she believes might be a beast or a troll since no one talks about him. The mysterious man then introduces himself to Charlotte as King George III, her soon-to-be husband.

Then, we cut to wedding invitations being delivered to all of Charlotte’s court. After Lord Danbury and a young Lady Danbury have sex, Lady Danbury goes to take a bath and finds out from her maid, Coral, that they’ve been invited to the royal wedding. She also discovers that she’ll be attending Queen Charlotte as part of her court. As Charlotte and her husband return to Buckingham House so that George can prepare to address Parliament, she shares tea in the orangery with Agatha. She asks her friend if there’s anything she can do to assist in the wake of Lord Danbury’s recent death, and though Agatha is tempted to argue her case for title inheritance, she resists for Charlotte’s sake. Nor does she mention Adolphus, whose affections for Agatha are becoming impossible to ignore.

After finally learning that one of her children is expecting an heir, Queen Charlotte (Golda Rosheuvel) visits King George (James Fleet) at Kew. The couple, now decades into their relationship, slide under their marriage bed to “hide from the heavens.” Time loses meaning as we see versions of both young and older Charlotte and George smile lovingly at each other under the bed. Rosheuvel tells Tudum that Queen Charlotte director Tom Verica came up with the idea; production of the scene was the only time Rosheuvel, Fleet, Amarteifio and Mylchreest all filmed together. "It wouldn't surprise me at all that wealthy elites would carry around opium," Lucas Richert, a historian of drugs and medicines at the University of Wisconsin, told Women's Health.

Some of the plot points from the spinoff, including the queen's quest for an heir, are very likely to show up again in the main series' next installment. They arrive at Buckingham House and George tells Charlotte that it’s her house. However, Charlotte is confused because she thought they’d be staying together since they’re husband and wife. George tells Charlotte that he has an estate in Kew and that that’s where he’ll be living. As Charlotte continues questioning George, he grows angry and yells at her.

“Cover your bruises,” she orders, “and endure.” And so, when Adolphus does eventually propose, Agatha does not immediately answer. In the Buckingham halls, Charlotte attempts to assuage George’s own concerns over his upcoming speech, only to suddenly discover herself in the throes of labor. George breaks palace protocol in order to sit with his wife as she delivers their infant son, Georgie, whom Augusta worries might have inherited her son’s fits.

Despite what you might have thought, what Queen Charlotte is sniffing isn’t illicit drugs, it’s tobacco – known as “snuff” at the time. It was very much legal, just a luxury that only some could afford. During the era, the real Queen was even nicknamed “Snuffy Charlotte” – much to emphasise her royal and wealthy status. The idea for the showstopping creation came to hair and makeup designer Erika Ökvist during production on Season 2, but she didn’t find a suitable event to debut it then. An opportunity finally presented itself in the upcoming episodes, which will follow Penelope and Colin’s love story while Queen Charlotte delights with stunning new hairpieces such as the swan number. Set before and in the same era as Netflix’s Emmy-winning ‘Bridgerton’, it’s the story of the biracial Queen Charlotte (India Amarteifio) and George (Corey Mylchreest), the man she’ll marry and raise 15 children with.
