18 funny things the Queen would never say – in public

Most of us only ever hear the Queen talk when she’s making speeches, whether she’s talking about her annus horribilis at Christmas or trying not to laugh or yawn as she reads what the government has written for her to say to Parliament. The talented and famous may be amongst the rare few to hear her ask what they do, during gala performances or garden parties, but we can all imagine the types of conversations she might have at home:

“Someone get the pooper scooper. There’s corgi sh_t on that priceless rug.”

Maybe not. With that in mind, Twitter has been weighing in on the #ThingsTheQueenWouldNeverSay hashtag, and we have to agree that she definitely wouldn’t say any of these – at least, not in public.
