"In 'The Queen and I', 'Adrian Mole's' creator has hit on a simple, clever idea and she sustains the fun superbly. She imagines that the last election was won by the People's Republican Party, with a bit of subliminal help from the television technicians' union. The Royal Family has to be relocated. They are allotted accommodation in Hellebore Close, known to its residents as Hell Close, on a Midlands housing estate.
"Her estate dwellers are authentic in the mixture of bafflement, suspicion and good humour with which they accept the poshos; "How did you talk to somebody whose head you were used to finding on a stamp?""

Wouldn't it be funny if...an amusing book that would have made an enlightening scenario...
