History Film / ChildrensPartyAtThePalace

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: This is implied because even though the Goodies think the villains are [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk Jerks With Hearts of Jerk]], the villains don’t seem to have a hatred towards the Queen, only the attendees of her party (Which is why they were all jealous of not being invited to the party, and that Burglar Bill only [[spoiler:stole the handbag]], not [[SaveThePrincess kidnap the Queen]]). Guess they have a soft spot, after all!
** Even at the end when the Queen pulls out her glasses and speech from her handbag, the villains applaud!

** The Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt, as he sports hair in this play and even mentions that he was in his "corporate, ''sexy'' glory".

* ABirthdayNotABreak: The Queen hosts a party at her palace to celebrate not just her 80th birthday, but also the history of British children's literature (though this production took place in June, Her Majesty's actual birthday was two months earlier). First, she forgets to take her handbag with her, which stores her reading glasses for her speech ([[spoiler:and not to mention the ''speech itself'' was in the bag too]]), and the Baddies briefly kidnap WesternAnimation/PostmanPat as he almost sends the letters off to the Goodies. Then the Baddies sabotage her party by blocking the Goodies from reaching the Palace at the [[UsefulNotes/TheLondonUnderground London Underground]] and ''almost'' got to slipping a potion in her cake (turns out there ''wasn't even'' a cake to begin with). It all eventually leads to Burglar Bill snatching it in the Palace and the duo of Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker actually baking a cake for the children with the Grand High Witch's mouse-changing potion as one of the ingredients, but [[spoiler:thankfully, neither succeeded as Her Majesty eventually got her bag back]] and the potion had no effect. No wonder the Queen looked a tad miffed as she watched the show from the Royal Box.

** At the picture gallery of Buckingham Palace, after locking a set of doors to not let anymore characters inside, the Child-Catcher looks at the viewers and shrugs, saying "Whatever".

* BlindWithoutEm: Downplayed. It's obvious that the Queen is simply farsighted and needs those glasses to read her speech.

[[caption-width-right:182:]]

* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: Downplayed. Just because they weren't invited, the Baddies did three important things: steal the Queen's bag, ambush the Goodies at [[UsefulNotes/TheLondonUnderground]], and...place a potion in a cake that is only meant to cause a BalefulPolymorph but turns out to have no effect whatsoever.

''The Children's Party at the Palace'' was a 2006 {{Pantomime}} theatrical-film event filmed live from Buckingham Palace (yes, really!) where 2,000 children and 1,000 adults, chosen by national ballot, watched characters from the past 100 years of children's literature hunt the Queen's lost [[MacGuffin handbag]], so that she can get her reading glasses back and deliver her closing speech. It was also televised on the {{Creator/BBC}}. It originally had a Website/YouTube upload, but unfortunately, the channel who uploaded it was terminated, and therefore was deleted (due to something completely unrelated to this film).

* VileVillainSaccharineShow: Downplayed, as this film doesn't really go too much into the SugarBowl level of saccharine. All the villains are pretty devious in nature, yet their plan is pretty lukewarm, because they're only [[spoiler: stealing the Queen's handbag, not the Queen herself, as well as dealing with the corgis and slipping a potion in the cake]]. However, some of them have mentioned malicious intents such as boiling and frying children, especially the Grand High Witch and Cruella de Vil. It adds to the fact that they're all stuck in a light-hearted, playful, sugary royal romp whilst being watched by the Queen herself (who did ''not'' look amused ''at all''. Guess she's also cross that she's stuck in a saccharine show, but it could actually be because she had to put up with her husband's comments.).

* NoNameGiven: Many of the minor characters do not have known names such as the many Lost Boys and pirates, as well as an Edwardian cat character who makes a brief appearance.

* EvilIsHammy: Anthony Head as Captain Hook.

* IAmVeryBritish: Subverted. Not all the characters speak in RP.

* TheHighQueen: Why, it's the Queen herself!
