The Queen has Tea with Paddington Bear



During the telecast of the concert accompanying Queen Elizabeth's platinum jubilee celebrations, viewers were treated to a short film in which the queen tried out her comedy acting chops with Paddington Bear! The two are bonding over a cup of tea. One minute of the short was released to the public, in which we learn the answer to that age-old question- what does the queen keep in her purse? The charming vignette ends with a segue into Queen's "We Will Rock You." The film was a surprise to the audience, as it was recorded much earlier and kept under wraps. Read more about this delightful short at Deadline.

That's great, humor with class. I noticed the Queen concert clip, whoever created this was very clever. I wonder how many cuts and retakes before everyone signed off on the final version?
