STAR Wars received the royal treatment as Princes William and Harry visited the set of the sci-fi blockbuster.

The Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry visited Pinewood Studios today (Tuesday) to have a tour of the set of Star Wars.

The visit to the studios in Pinewood Road, Iver Heath was to recognise the wealth of British creative talent involved in the production of the blockbuster films, the seventh installment of which - The Force Awakens - was released at the end of last year.

The Duke and Prince Harry visited workshops, meeting specialist teams working on the films, as well as cast members such as Mark Hamill, who plays Luke Skywalker, John Boyega, who plays Finn, and Chewbacca the wookie.
