Answer:
The Queen Mother saw two World Wars and the end ofthe Raj
On Saturday, March 30, the United Kingdom lost the Queen Mother and India its Last Empress. Queen Elizabeth was at once widow of George VI, proud Scot and tough cookie woman. She famously refused to move to a safe haven when London was bombed by Hitler's Luftwaffe.
Queen Elizabeth lived to be 101. Her life spanned a century of romp and pageantry for the royal family. Her husband came to the throne because his brother decided he would rather marry an American death.
BBC had a news presenter announce the national bereavement while wearing a burgundy tie, rather than the customary black. It also referred to her as "old woman". Charles is said to have been livid.
The Beeb brushed aside all protest. In death as in life, England's favourite Scot must have been exasperated by the ways of the English.
Other than the fact that India was once ruled in her husband's name, the Queen Mother was known in this country for the Kohinoor diamond that formed part of commoner than rule an empire.
The Queen Mum's final years saw equal scandal - Diana and Sarah, the Merry Wives of Windsor; the dour Charles, said to be "devastated" by his grandmother's death; the tortured youth of her great-grandsons, William and Harry.
It was also the century in which the Sceptred Isle finally succumbed to Cool Britannia. Prime Minister Tony Blair paid tribute to the Queen Mother calling her a symbol of Britain's "decency and courage". It is somewhat ironic that the island he governs is so far removed from the one she was born in.
The Queen Mother saw no contradiction between being a Scottish lass and an English royal. She would have been more than a trifle amused at the immediate reaction to her her crown. It was with her till the end, being placed on the coffin.
Queen Mothers in English history have this reputation for being canny, crusty and intriguing. When Edward III became king in the 14th century he had to exile his mother, Isabella, and execute her lover before he became his own king.
In comparison Queen Elizabeth II's mother was a simple soul, who, it is said, liked her drink and liked even more to laugh. She chose Diana for her first grandson and then, the princess' people allege, encouraged Charles to stray.
Trust the intellectual luvvies. They fashioned a whole new Red Riding Hood epic: ignore the wolf, demonise the granny. Goodbye Queen Mum, be happy in Avalon.
