A scene from The Queen 2006
HM Queen Elizabeth II

[Cherie has just offered a 'shallow' curtsy. The Queen looks at her and smiles]

Mrs Blair, lovely to see you, and congratulations.

HM Queen Elizabeth II

[the Queen shakes Cherie's hand]

You must be very proud, and exhausted I imagine. Where will you be spending the summer?

Cherie Blair

Erm, France.
HM Queen Elizabeth II Oh, lovely.

Tony Blair

You'll be in Balmoral?

HM Queen Elizabeth II

Yes, yes, I can't wait. It's such a wonderful place. My great great grandmother Victoria once said 'Balmoral always seems to breath peace and make one forget the world and its sad turmoils.

Robin Janvrin

[Robin Janvrin comes into room]

Your Majesty?

HM Queen Elizabeth II

Oh, excuse me.

HM Queen Elizabeth II

[Robin whispers something inaudible into the Queen's ear] [to Tony and Cherie]

I'm so sorry, we're going to have to leave it there.

HM Queen Elizabeth II

[she shakes both their hands and they exit without showing their backs] [to Robin]

It wasn't too short was it? Fifteen minutes, one doesn't want to be rude.

Robin Janvrin

No ma'am.
