For no good reason – maybe it’s something to do with the King going into hospital on Friday – but this clip of the late Queen Elizabeth II from 2011 has been going wildly viral again on Twitter.

It’s the moment from 2011 that HM was introduced to the Turkish First Lady, Hayrunnisa Gul.

And while the Queen presumably didn’t make any public pronouncement about those six inch high heels, she didn’t need to. Because … watch.

A fabulous throwback to simpler times.

And while we’re talking about the late monarch, as we were, this was pretty amazing too.
