Mrs. Blair, lovely to see you, and congratulations. [the Queen shakes Cherie's hand] HM Queen Elizabeth II:

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 breathe peace and make one forget the world and its sad turmoils'. Robin Janvrin:

Your Majesty? HM Queen Elizabeth II:
Oh, excuse me. [Robin whispers something inaudible into the Queen's ear] HM Queen Elizabeth II:
[to Tony and Cherie]
I'm so sorry, we're going to have to leave it there. [she shakes both their hands and they exit without showing their backs] HM Queen Elizabeth II:
[to Robin]
