    Queen Mary : Anne Boleyn.

    Lady Mabell Airlie : Well, that didn't work out, did it?

    Queen Mary : Well, my understanding is that until he had her beheaded, the whole thing was a resounding success.

  • Queen Mary : We've been advised in the country to pick up servicemen. We picked up an American. He was delightful, but I don't think that he knew who I was!
