Go To

1* Tony Blair, as he comes to realize just how much of a burden the crown is to those who wear it.
2--> '''Alastair Campbell''': They, er, sent a copy of the Queen's speech. Might want to scrape the frost off it first... Oh, I phoned them with a couple of suggestions, to make it sound like it came from a human being.
