One day, the Queen came to tea with Princess Margaret. I stayed in the drawing room so that they could have some time together and she went off to the bedroom to find Princess Margaret. Quite soon after she had gone in, she reappeared.
'Oh, Ma'am, is everything all right?' I asked.
'No, it isn't,' the Queen replied. 'Margaret is listening to The Archers and every time I try to say something she just says, "Shh!"
