Even Prince Charles got a taste of how angry British students are over a big hike in university fees. Protesters smashed a window of the prince's Rolls Royce and splashed paint on the car as he and Camilla were being driven through London.

They arrived at the theater looking unruffled. (More Prince Charles stories.)
