Yes, William III and Mary II. Their short reign (1689-1694) was a time of craftsmanship and good taste, as reflected in 'William and Mary' furniture.
Earlier, there had been the disputed reign(s) of King Stephen and Queen Matilda, in-between Henry I and Henry II. Matilda seems to have been the more dominant character, but Stephen's gender gave him prior claim in some people's view.

How would Prince Philip ever become king?
Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, never became king because he was not in the line of succession and was not of royal birth in the same sense as the heirs to the British throne. He was married to Queen Elizabeth II, which made him a prince consort rather than a reigning monarch. The title of king is typically reserved for those who inherit the throne, and since Philip was not a direct descendant of a reigning monarch, he could not ascend to that position. His role was to support the queen in her duties and represent the royal family.
What is the difference between King's English and Queen's English?
They are the same. While a king reigns, it is the King's English. While a queen reigns, it is the Queen's English------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The monarch of England is sometimes a king and sometimes a queen (at the present time, March 2013, it is Queen Elizabeth II) but the English language does not change; it is the monarch's English. We just use different terms to reflect the identity of the reigning monarch.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The expression "the queen's English" refers to the reigning British monarch. Since English currently has a queen, and has for almost 60 years, the proper expression is "the queen's English."-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I suppose when Charles becomes king, the expression might change to "the king's English."----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ACTUALLY, the expression "The King's English" refers to a title of a book written by the Fowler brothers in 1906, which deals with the English language, its pronunciation, etc. A book's title does not change just because a monarch changes. Therefore, it is "The King's English", regardless of whether the current monarch is male or female.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Will Kate Middleton become princess?
She will if William becomes King. He is currently second in line to the throne, after his father, Prince Charles. Kate will not be queen in the same sense as the current monarch, Elizabeth II. Elizabeth II is Queen Regnant, meaning that she is queen in her own right and the reigning monarch of the United Kingdom, having inherited the crown from her father. Kate will be queen (queen consort) because she will be married to a reigning monarch. For example, if she becomes queen and she outlives William, she will NOT become the reigning monarch. The crown will go to William's eldest child with Kate, Prince George. She would then be queen in the same way that Elizabeth's mother was queen following the accession to the throne by Elizabeth II. Elizabeth's mother, also named Elizabeth, was known as Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, or fondly as the Queen Mum. When she becomes queen, Kate will have a similar status to Elizabeth II's husband, Prince Philip.
