The Queen‘s only daughter, Princess Anne, is due to turn 70 in August, so ITV produced a documentary about her, in which she helps her old mum get to grips with new technology.
NEW: A first look behind the scenes of those royal video calls
Watch how Princess Anne tried to teach her elderly mother about @zoom_us.
But her elderly mother is, err, the Queen.
A great clip from tomorrow’s documentary ‘Anne: The Princess Royal at 70’ on @itv 9pm

It wasn’t the fact that the 94-year-old monarch is like so many new tech users and hadn’t worked out how to see all callers, or even Princess Anne’s little quip that made people take notice.
It was her room – mostly.
Plenty to analyse in her Her Maj’s Zoom background, it’s like an escape room pic.twitter.com/u8qTQ0V0lA

Done enough escape rooms to know that there's definitely a key taped to bottom of that golden horse

Fun story about the gilded horse, it's actually solid Cadbury chocolate and was intended to be presented to Princess Anne as an Easter gift in 1957. As she was ill with typhus, Elizabeth accepted it on her behalf and kept it, despite being well known for only liking Galaxy.

I have to say the Queen has absolutely nailed the double-chin eliminating Zoom meeting camera angle. She must put her laptop on an ironing board like I do. pic.twitter.com/tt9t7NqimM

Never mind the golden horse in the room – what about the elephant?
After the Queen takes part in her first public video call, the FBI asks if they can do a fun Zoom quiz with Prince Andrew.
