Prince Philip:
[referring to the Royal Standard]
It hasn't been lowered for anyone.
HM The Queen Mother:
[to Charles]
Your grandfather didn't get the flag at half mast, when he died.
[whispers]
HM The Queen Mother:
If you're mother died tomorrow, she wouldn't either.
Prince Charles:
Yes, granny. But sometimes, you know, in a situation like this, one has to be flexible. It is just a flag.
HM Queen Elizabeth II:
What about the Union Jack? Was Mr. Blair's next suggestion.
HM The Queen Mother:
For heavens sake?
Prince Philip:
The next thing he'll be suggesting you change your name to Hilda and mine to Hector! Who does he think he's talking to? You're the Sovereign, the Head of State. You don't get dictated to.
