[Cherie has just offered a shallow curtsy. The Queen looks at her and smiles]
HM Queen Elizabeth II : Mrs. Blair, lovely to see you, and congratulations.
[the Queen shakes Cherie's hand]
HM Queen Elizabeth II : You must be very proud, and exhausted, I imagine. Where will you be spending the summer?
Cherie Blair : 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 : [comes into room] 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] It wasn't too short was it? Fifteen minutes, one doesn't want to be rude.
Robin Janvrin : No ma'am.
