what does your friend do 😮

​@@alexm566 I know that now he works for the blood transport thingy. I don't think that was what he was doing at the time though. He was something to do with St John's Ambulance at the time. It was before I knew him. But he's got photos and everything! He said within seconds of meeting The Queen, he went from a bag of nerves to being totally at ease because of how friendly she is. He didn't actually stay in her company for very long though, just about 5 minutes but he did have lunch with Charles and Camilla. He said Charles was a really nice bloke but just kept making weird puns etc that even Camilla rolled her eyes at lol!! But all in all he couldn't speak highly enough of all the Royals and the staff and he's not even a Royalist in general.

@@matthill3293 that's nice to hear.

@@matthill3293 that‘s great to read and thinking of her driving and fixing lorries during the war draws a different picture of her than press often tries to.

What an incredible memory to have! Your friend is so lucky!!

That's not true. The title president and queen are synonyms they both control their country. The only difference being is that the president gets replaced every 4 years while the queen when she dies and she passes her title to her descendants while the presidents are chosen by the people. Its monarchy vs democratically accepted independence.

There were countless queens during England's history.

@@The-illuminated you do not seem to understand Britain's government system. The queen does not rule the country. She is a figurehead. The title president also varies depending on the country. In the US they are both the head of state and the head of government. A lot of countries have a president who is the head of state and another elected official, usually the prime minister who is the head of government. Some countries have the prime minister be the head of both. the queen is technically the head of state for the UK. It is a non-political role.

@@icarusgotooclose, you are partly right here. The head of state of the United Kingdom (Queen Elizabeth II) HAS in fact political power although she normally doesn´t use them. So, she could in fact dissolve Her government (wich she has asked the Prime Minister to form). But in principle that could only happen if the government went against the will of the people-thus she is the foremost guardian of the nation's democracy.

@@icarusgotooclose I'm curious. In that case, could the First minister not be also a represent figure for the country, too ? By economical side, it could save more money without monarchs, and I say it with respect, with have not hate feelings or something like that. It's just curiosity.

Wow. That’s fascinating

We have the ceremony of coronation in this country but no monarch is ever ‘coronated’ but simply ‘crowned’. It appears to be a US usage. To us it sounds as it would to a US citizen if on inauguration day a Briton were to describe the new President as being ‘presidented’. Not exactly wrong but definitely not right!

How sweet, I'm sure your grandmother has that memory etched in her heart forever and a day.

You may find this really interesting: "That's Edward VII's work mostly when you look at the Palace now. Back in 1889 when Edward was the Prince of Wales, in a private event when he visited the real Moulin Rouge its reported this happened: "26 October 1890: His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, the future Edward VII, who on a private visit to Paris, booked a table to see this quadrille whose reputation had already crossed the Channel. Recognising him, La Goulue, with her leg in the air and her head in her skirts, spontaneously called out "Hey, Wales, the champagne's on you!"." The birthplace of the modern can-can dance, though really the tune had existed before then since I believe least 1840 I think, when it was first created. Actually the tune associated with its the Internal Galop from Orpheus in the Underworld a form of Bouffon Operetta by Jacques Offenbach a bouffon Operetta being a comic form of Operetta believe it pokes fun at the scandals in politics of the 3rd French Empire lead by Napoleon III who gave Offenbach French Citizenship (was quite essentially German-French" Something I said just above this comment.

I think you mean that she is figuratively world history. A person cannot literally be world history as it is inanimate and abstract.

she is HISTORY.........outliving about a zillion foreign heads of state and Prezs

@@gertraba4484 She has reigned over the demise of the greatest empire in world history. She has watched her own nation sink into widespread depression and malaise. She has encouraged the oppression of the Irish until her government's hand was forced. Her death won't change a thing except whose face is on bills and coins in a handful of countries for whom she is an artifact. She is history only in that she is a relic of a past only the tiniest minority even remember.

@kevin cheeseboro313 Being American doesn't matter to The Queen. She's made History in America TOO! Having to be the First British Monarch to ***EVER*** step foot IN America since the American Revolution, In Virginia, She is also the VERY First British Monarch to ride the Virginia Royal Carriage which was supposed to be built for the next person in power after His Majesty King George III but was never used for royal occasions because of the revolution and revolution aftermath. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the royal guards, standing on her carriage like they were working as a British Army Guard during The Queen's Trooping the Colour. Her Majesty fit very well in that carriage. Everyone just pretended that America's Republic hadn't existed yet and pretended it was still a Constitutional Monarchy and see what it would be like if Her Majesty was Queen of America and part of the British Commonwealth of Nations. America is a different country Her Majesty thought, It wasn't a country where she rather present herself as Head of State of the United Kingdom, It is a country where her great great great great grandfathers ruled over and established by Queen Anne; The First British Queen, America still wanted to be part British and at the same time it's own country, Her visit to Colonial Williamsburg brought attention to members of the small royal village that a Living British Monarch is coming. Last year in Spring she was going to return to America to mark another anniversary, But on behalf of All Americans she had to stay for the British-American-endorsed Royal Wedding! - And we Americans sure did understand, Many people were wishing for Prince Philip to be there, And many hoped The Queen would enjoy the service and thanked her for it to exist. America is indeed a country she truly loves just as much as the United Kingdom, So much that she decides to have 2 Americans in The Royal Family. Even 3 U.S. Presidents are related to royal blood; George Washington - twice removed cousin of Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge George H.W. Bush - twice removed cousin of Elizabeth II, Queen of the United Kingdom George W. Bush - twice removed cousin of Elizabeth II, Queen of the United Kingdom America is a nation that shouldn't have been a Republic but had to become one for the best of the future and all of humanity. God Bless America And God Save The Queen!

She has fluid in her throat making her voice raspy - perhaps she has a cold. She doesn't normally sound like that.

Debra Shateri I am also an American and I agree with you. She is living history.. she is just as beautiful today as the day she was crowned Queen..

I love how helpful and valuable the royal family is to England! They definitely contribute a lot and work hard for the improvement of English people’s lives! They definitely aren’t just born into obscene amounts of wealth, fame, and influence for happening to come out of the vagina of another woman also born into obscene amounts of wealth, fame, and influence while they live out their hugely rich, luxurious, and privileged life not for actually accomplishing anything or doing anything remotely important or meaningful, but for merely happening to be born into a certain family! It’s lovely!

@JRRnotTolkien Me too. USA. She is my hero.

​@@StarlightPr0ductions She and her family does a lot for charities and organisations in this country and across the Commonwealth. It's basically their job to improve people's lives and they do a fantastic job at it. I'm extremely proud to call her my monarch.

Lmao I’m American to rp as the queen on KZfaq, I also think she’s an amazing queen

My most respect you Queen! The administration is a silence all to you own. My heart goes out you 10 folds. Blessing to you.

Hello Robin how're you doing today?

@@patrickharry2427 Hello Sir.. Life is always great! This is odd why is it when I post a comment here someone post back in reference to Hello and How I'm I doing.

Blood of the reptile.

Best healthcare in the world.

Just curious.. do you actually believe she is a reptile?

UNKNOWN 1 uh she was crowed at the age of 25

Well she's obviously not a lizard lmao, why would you think that? I'm not particularly fond of her by the way, just wondered where you could have drawn such a conclusion from

Of course it is true. Bridezillas in general, and the royal family in particular, are hugely hypocritical. Even commoners can be annoying. In 1970, I was asked to participate in a wedding as an usher, to accompany the bride's sister, who was to be a bridesmaid. I then received word that I would not be needed, because the bride had decided to exclude her sister as bridesmaid, because the sister was too fat and would ruin the wedding pictures.

I think Queen Elizabeth would.....tell the truth!!!

Haha! remember that they are british

😂

TheAmirHazwan I think he was trying to bring race and class into it. I think he felt the only reason why she was chosen was because she's part of the Noble Class/Aristocracy.

I know what sort of quiestion is that?

I wanted to slap him for being so stupid. Its like, know your place dude.

TheAmirHazwan, imo it was a respectful/courteous question in its way. As in "oh surely not", that they were just chosen for appearances and not any intrinsic merit. She was being quite self deprecating and he was just working with that. Cut him some slack.

F E He asked it in a very weird way. As he was saying “that must be something you made up yourself”

@Wraithic correction, she was actually in kenya at the time of her father's death, on a tour of the Commonwealth with prince philip

@Wraithic I'm sorry where?

clarkevander He said Philippines (even though it was kenya). Why’d ya say “I’m sorry where?”

@@mike_404 that was me giving him a chance to correct himself. I was also surprised that she would be in the Philippines. I knew for a fact that she was in Kenya and I'm from the Philippines. I also knew for a fact that she's never been here for official business. Although, there are rumours that she had gone here for holiday in the prestigious Amanpulo island.

The king is dead, king live the queen.

Well to answer your question is simple we have our own government and politics to worry about so it's probably why we get a lot of stuff wrong when it comes to other countries

@@michaelsimmons1430 could have done a bit of research before reporting about it on the news, it’s also common knowledge (I knew this and im not British)

@@ArmourI I get that to report it could have done a little more research because it's their job too but this isn't common knowledge trust me I know a lot of people that don't know about this

@@michaelsimmons1430 it is common knowledge, I don’t think anyone I know doesn’t know about this

@@michaelsimmons1430 what does politics and different rules has to do with this? Its common knowledge if a king had a child or daughter, they are considered as 'princess/prince.' Its actually a disrespect for any Royal Family not to mention them as their highness/majesty/curtsy. It doesn't even need education especially if your field is to do a report about the Royal Family which is your major, they should know even way better than we all do.

That isn't the queen. The queen never crosses her legs, she said it was too painful instead keeping her legs close to together. That is a double, a stand in, a lookalike.

No wonder the world is corrupted..

Don’t listen to FortniteBuddies 76, Deep Heat. She is an amazing lady! Long live Queen Lilibet!

God save your Queen

Not british here. But what exactly does the queen do? Im genuinely curious. Since i know britain also has a prime minister.

What did she do?

Kevin Corcoran Watch it with a pinch of salt though. Parts of it are very inaccurate.

You mean 80-90% haha

I'm still in the first season, but so far I was very often disappointed with how she never pulled through with her own choices, but always comes round to what other people tell her to do. Of course she was still incredibly young and suddenly queen and that can not have been easy at all, but still. I only just finished the episode where she had Peter sent away before him and Margaret could meet again, what a shitshow. Going from 'I'll support you all the way, you can legally get married in scotland' to 'I' m not allowing you to be together at all also you can't see him for 2 years and even then you still won't have my consent'. The lack of backbone there really struck me - I get the monarchy was important to uphold, but family is so important and she really treated her sister terribly, just to uphold status. Please don't spoil for me what happens next (okay I guess history isn't really a spoiler but still^^) but so far I am getting ever more disappointed with young Elizabeth.

@@singenstattatmen5096 i thought throughout the whole series she was depicted as aloof, snobby and stupid (which fits the real queen). But she talks nothing like the real queen, more like a wind up puppet with malfunctions. Really hope Olivia Coleman will do a better impression in S3

I mean, it is dramatized for viewers sake, but it’s still interesting to see what could have happened behind closed doors

Really well she needs to apologise to Ireland 🇮🇪

😳

@@aislingirish4503 why what did she personally do

its strange isn't it?

I cried like 10-15 times since her passing and I’m not ashamed to say it. She was a wonderful person.

She spent to much time doing research & pouring over stock footage for this segment!! LOL!! :)

It was half decent until she decides to drop it Midway through a word.

No english person ever pronounce like that.

What does she pronounce in a weird way? (English is not my first language)

Lol right? It was like why she do that accent for?

For what???!

She certainly dedicated herself to the role.

Hi

She’s hot ngl at that time

Lavi Mark stupid guy

@@paralleluniverses2969 he's idiotic. There's a bit where he's talking about her crown and he actually says 'it's difficult to remember that diamonds are actually stones' and the look the queen shoots him is pure comedy. If she wasn't the queen she would have said 'only if you're an imbecile'.

@@paralleluniverses2969 really! is it being awestruck that these interviewers act so badly? "Really?" "No, actually it only takes 10 mins to drive a carriage through all of old London town." Idiot. Is he questionimg e queens honesty or sanity? Idiot.

​@@realganjaman3573 If you're someone prone to nervousness, being tongue-tied and star struck perhaps you're not the best person to interview the queen. It's unprofessional. And I'm sure I would do a good job because I don't get nervous around people and I do my homework in advance so I don't ask stupid questions.

True. The Queen is more connected to us than any useless politicians.

joseph.common german muck ....now they have to bring in an afro american for the ginger minger.

As a monarch you need to represent your people and lead them, her willingness to touch the hearts of the common briton is what made her so respected and loved.

M Scott, it's unfortunate that you have those useless politicians in the way. I'm not an absolutist but the Queen and her eldest grandson seem to be much smarter and sensible than either the labour or the tory party.

How dare you

Hi there, how are you?

Well shes still alive

How are you doing today my name is Eric moore

We tend to pronounce things the way they are spelled. We are very literal in that sense. Hence why American English is considered "business English". How is it supposed to be pronounced, just out of curiosity? I mean.....there are words that the British pronounce that sound funny to American ears, too. It goes both ways.

The way Yanks pronounce Monarch is hilarious too! 😂

This is actually false, for example in all of europe and asia, schools teach British English, Well just English. Not American english. Also a lot of schools in asia choose to follow a british curriculm too. Also as the inventors of English, hence why its called english not americanish, the pronunciation of words are up to the creators. A letter by itself isn't decided how to be pronounced, until someone says its supposed to be pronounced that way, of course you wouldn't know that as many americans dont prioritise learning second languages in schools, For example if you see germans typing, wasser, you will think its pronounced how its typed, but again, its not as the creators decided the W is more equivalent to what we would consider the sound of a V in english. Sorry to correct you.
