He may be no more eager than any other royal to step in front of the camera, but Britain's Prince Edward is eager to get behind one.

The youngest son of Queen Elizabeth II plans to produce and possibly be host of a series of television specials for CBS, an official of CBS Enterprises said Monday."We've been discussing possible subjects and ways of distribution," said Andi Sporkin, vice president of communications for the network's TV distribution arm.

She denied that Edward had a $4 million deal for the series, as reported by a London newspaper on Sunday.
