I saw it last Friday. I watched both Queen Rania's and the Crown Princely couple's interviews. The Norwegian Prince and Princess talked both about their lives and about their social work. CP Haakon was even very careful not to talk about politics. He was asked about the Norwegian military mission in Afghanistan and he supported the forces' work, but said that he left political opinions for politicians.
MM talked about her adaptation to life in the RF. She said it took her some time to adapt to royal life. Haakon said it was not so easy that she was accepted by their people, but that she has succeeded. About her son, she said that he was quite young when she married Haakon, so it was not a big change to be a part of the Royal Family.
IMO, MM's English is better than Haakon's, who has a strong nordic accent.
