Queen Elizabeth is coming to the close of her first day in Ireland. She looks like someone who is enjoying her visit. They certainly are a statement for the older generation; she is 85 and her husband is 90.
Just some short hours into the visit and it is clear that it is the commentators who are the real nuisance.
It's annoying when a professor of history at UCD uses the word 'fulsome' incorrectly'.
And it is done with the such fluency and bluff that really makes him so spectacular.
Mary Kenny goes on and on in that extraordinary annoying accent telling the viewers how much she knows about so much to do with Queen Elizabeth. We were told in the most profound fashion how Queen Elizabeth carries the State papers with her on all her foreign trips.
Of course Ms Kenny is quite entitled to change from left wing beliefs to an ultra right ideology. But one can't help but wonder who is the 'real' Ms Kenny.
Her writings in Catholic styled newspapers is a mix of nonsense and church gossip.
The woman seems to carry some sort of 'air' about her that appears to give her an 'authentic' conservaitve Catholic look.
It would be interesting to know what Queen Elizabeth thinks of all the commentators.
