1 | * The opening conversation with the Queen and her portrait artist during Blair's election. |
2 | --> '''Portrait Artist''': You may not have a vote, ma'am, but it is ''your'' government. |
3 | --> '''HM Queen Elizabeth II''': Yes, I suppose that's some comfort. |
4 | * Courtesy of the Queen Mum: |
5 | -->If there is a photographer out there, he could be the first kill of the day. |
6 | * The first Blair/Queen meeting: |
7 | --> '''HM Queen Elizabeth II''': Have we shown you how to start a nuclear war yet? |
8 | --> '''UsefulNotes/TonyBlair''': Er, no. |
9 | --> '''HM Queen Elizabeth II''': First thing we do apparently, then we take away your passport and spend the rest of our time sending you around the world. |
10 | --> '''Tony Blair''': You obviously know my job better than I do. |
11 | --> '''HM Queen Elizabeth II''': Yes well, you are my tenth Prime Minister, Mister Blair. My first of course was UsefulNotes/WinstonChurchill, he sat in your chair in a frock coat and top hat. And he was kind enough to give a shy young girl like me quite an education. |
12 | --> '''Tony Blair''': I would imagine. |
13 | * Cherie Blair's EstablishingCharacterMoment after the Queen has to cut their meeting short for something implied to involve Diana. Observers of British politics called her portrayal the most accurate. |
14 | --> ''[Impersonating the Queen]'' Thank you so much for coming, now ''fuck off!'' |
15 | * A very, ''very'' dark example, but funny if you can remember the real [[UsefulNotes/TheHouseOfWindsor Princess Margaret]]: |
16 | --> '''Prince Philip''': I've just come off the phone to your sister. |
17 | --> '''The Queen''': Well I hope you told her to come back and cut her holiday short. |
18 | --> '''Prince Philip''': Of course. |
19 | --> '''The Queen''': I imagine she wasn't best pleased. |
20 | --> '''Prince Philip''': That's putting it mildly. |
21 | --> '''The Queen''': What did she say? |
22 | --> '''Prince Philip''': Something about Diana managing to be [[BlackComedy even more annoying dead than alive.]] |
23 | * The Queen's corgis manage to be both adorable and funny. |
24 | * This conversation between Blair and Campbell: |
25 | --> '''Alistair Campbell''': You seen the papers? |
26 | --> '''Tony Blair''': [[SarcasmMode No, I thought I'd give them a miss today]]. Of course I've seen the bloody papers! |
27 | * The Queen getting her jeep stuck in the mud. |
28 | --> '''The Queen''': [[PrecisionFStrike Oh bugger it.]] |
29 | * The Queen steps into the kitchen at Balmoral to take a call, but her corgis are being a nuisance so she snaps at them with a loud "Out!" Cue the entire kitchen staff leaving thinking she was talking to them. |
