The BBC has apologised to the Queen for mistakenly showing footage that wrongly implied she walked out of a portrait session during a documentary.
Photographer Annie Leibovitz is seen in the programme trailer telling the Queen she will look better without her tiara because “the Garter robe is so…”
Before she can say “extraordinary”, the Queen replies, pointing to what she is wearing: “Less dressy. What do you think this is?”
The clip then cuts to the Queen walking through the Palace saying to her lady-in-waiting: “I’m not changing anything. I’ve had enough dressing like this, thank you very much,” implying she had stormed off from the portrait session.
The footage, revealed to the press on Wednesday, was not intended to be seen and was shown in error, the BBC said.
“The BBC would like to apologise to both the Queen and Annie Leibovitz for any upset this may have caused”, the corporation said in a statement.
The documentary, A Year With The Queen, will be shown later this year.
Fire them all!
