Elizabeth II's Jubilee: the Queen of England's fun tea time with... Paddington Bear

Decidedly Elizabeth II missed a brilliant career as an actress.

The proof again this Saturday evening.

In a pre-recorded video that aired ahead of the 'BBC Platinum Party at the Palace', a concert outside Buckingham Palace in tribute to the Queen's 70-year reign that aired live this Saturday evening, the sovereign having tea with... Paddington Bear!

In this amusing video, and with unrivaled British phlegm, the beloved character of children, who we could see in the cinema recently, creates a mess during an official tea at the palace, he almost breaks the service, under the benevolent gaze of the queen.

The Royal Family posted part of the video on their official YouTube channel shortly after it aired on the BBC.

BBC journalist Michael Cowan shared the video in full on Twitter.

This on by if not better than the Olympic James Bond scene.

The video contains a particularly funny moment where the Queen pokes fun at her own habit of carrying a handbag with her wherever she goes.

After ruining the food provided for tea, Paddington offers her to share his eternal marmalade sandwich, to which the Queen responds by pulling a marmalade sandwich from her purse too and confiding in him with a smile." I'm saving mine here, for later."

“Her Majesty is well known for her sense of humour”

"Her Majesty is well known for her sense of humor so it should come as no surprise that she decided to take part in tonight's skit," a Buckingham Palace spokesperson told The Telegraph.

A 'royal' reporter outside the palace posted a video of the crowd's hilarious reaction to the Queen's surprise on-screen appearance.

Wow, the Platinum Jubilee concert has got off to an absolutely brilliant start with the Queen in an acting sketch with Paddington Bear.

“Although the Queen did not attend the concert in person, she was keen for people to understand what it means to her and for all spectators to have a good time,” the royal spokesperson also stressed. to the British press.

All of this is reminiscent of the iconic video that the Queen had shot with Daniel Craig alias James Bond, during the opening ceremony of the London Olympics in 2012. What a talent The Queen!
