“I think we should all have a private audience with Helen Mirren.”

“As an Englishwoman, you pick up a lot through osmosis. I’ve been watching the Queen all my life. But, yes, I did watch news footage and was able to pick a couple of little tics. For instance, she plays with her hands a lot and has a certain way of holding them on her lap when she’s in public.”
— Claire Foy
