On 31 December 1999, Queen Elizabeth II; Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh; Princess Anne, Princess Royal; and other members of the royal family joined British Prime Minister Tony Blair and his wife Cherie Blair at the newly-opened Millennium Dome to see in the new year - and the new millennium. While the royals took a barge down the Thames to the venue, the Blairs and other members of the political establishment arrived by tube train.

Whether you adored or abhorred, Her Majesty, I think everyone can agree that she deserves an enormous amount of respect.

@stewabercrombie1363 4 месяца назад

No one could possibly abhor her personally, she was a warm, funny and kind person. The institution of which she embodied through her reign is something that many oppose however

@rachmunshine9474 4 месяца назад

Well anyone that could abhor her late majesty or anyone probably can’t agree about respecting them. But I think if you mean like whether they are supporters in general of the royal family that they still respected to work she did for so long. Anyway, I can’t imagine anybody abhorring her. But she certainly did her perceived duty as well as literally written duties bus from the church and state and made it look easy. No matter how well loved the remaining members of the family are, there will never be another duo quite like the late Queen Elizabeth II and the duke of Edinburgh a.k.a. Prince Philip. They were really from a different era and as much as they adapted to the times, it’s kind of sad that some of the mystique and formality in dress and behavior is gone. But that doesn’t mean the new way that’s somewhat more down to earth - especially when engaging with sick children or whatever charity they’re assisting at the time - isn’t a great thing because it is.

It still breaks my heart whenever I see Her Majesty, as it reminds me how much I miss her; nonetheless it also reminds me how privileged I was to live through the majority of her extraordinary reign.

@jennymitchelson9356 well my mind is blown, I had no idea about any of that.. the point is, someone/something that is such a constant in life, such a symbol of our culture - it can be tricky to get used to when it's not there anymore.

@weestephfromscotalnd1645 7 месяцев назад

I have lived all of my life knowing her as the beloved Queen, and so it would reasonable that some still find themselves in disbelief at her death, even a year after, as with I.

My hubby and me visited the UK in the 90's. The Stone of Scone was still under the throne inside Westminster Abby. It was obvious the country loved her. It was infectious.

Elizabeth The Great ❤👸❤ Such an amazing woman, with her death and the upcoming abdication of Her Majesty Queen Margrethe of Denmark, We are truly stepping into a new era, May we continue to nurture the traditions of our forebears and embrace rather than shun, or be fearful of progress

I Remember this it’s when the Queen and Prince Philip didn’t know how to do it they had no idea that you link arms and hold hands. The Queen looked weary at the thought of Holding Tony Blair’s hand I thought that was strange saying they have there Christmas and new year in Scotland of all places but it’s lovely to see the Queen again she is missed so much I must say the Queen looked a lot nicer caring grandma type 15 to 20 years later she used to look quite stern ,strict

@susanwaugh9711 7 месяцев назад

What do you mean Christmas and new year in Scotland of all places ???? Hogmany originates in Scotland, and it is the BEST place to be at New year. Are you kidding me??? She adored Scotland and at New Year the atmosphere is incredible there! She wasn’t weary of taking Tony’s hand either. She was aware that others had their arms crossed and she just thought oh it’s ok I’ll just join in without crossing my arms, and reached out for both Tony and Prince Philips hands.

@lsmith9249 4 месяца назад

@@susanwaugh9711 i'd never seen our late Queen looking so out of place and the atmosphere of places like Edinburgh and Glasgow wouldn't spread to Balmoral, it wasn't the local pub and most people think the place where they live is the best place to be

@lsmith9249 4 месяца назад

@ivewarrior2 our late Queen looked uncomfortable, but she never looked stern or strict, and our royal family have Christmas and New Year at Sandringham in Norfolk, England, but what is wrong with Scotland?

The most awkward scene of the whole millennium 😂 the Queen was utterly non plussed by all this. I wonder if the Crown had this in mind when they filmed the King Tony coronation scene ?

@heartofoak45 10 дней назад

What a total waste of time that was. Of all the magnificent buildings in London to choose from, Blair chooses a tent. Her Majesty could not wait to get away and take a late evening flight to Balmoral and who would blame her.
