Queen Elizabeth Mastered Video Calling at 94!
How Princess Anne Took the Spotlight
The 94‑year‑old monarch faced a new challenge when the world went lockdown. She had to learn how to Zoom and Webex like an amateur to keep in touch with family and carry out royal duties from home.
- In an ITV clip from “Anne: The Princess Royal at 70,” the Queen joined a Carers Week webinar.
- She greeted everyone with a cheerful “Good morning. I’m very glad to have been able to join you.”
- Her daughter, 69‑year‑old Princess Anne, checked the view: “Can you see everybody? You should have six people on your screen.”
- The Queen replied, “I can only see four.”
- Anne chuckled and said, “You don’t need me. You know what I look like.”
Learning Curve and Light‑Hearted Rehearsals
A preview of the documentary shows Peter Phillips (42) and Zara Tindall (39) sharing the strict etiquette before a balcony appearance.
- Zara: “We’re supposed to hang out with our cousins and just have fun.”
- Peter: “You’re reminded to behave, don’t pick your nose, don’t yawn, and close the ‘ear clip.’”
While the Queen may have struggled to keep track of all participants, Princess Anne turned the video call into a family‑friendly gig‑gle fest. The Wendy‑style merriness proves even the most regal can adapt to new tech.
