Richard Dyer-Bennet was an early influence, his lute-style play on
CPU wonders if there are any brits who can kick the tassel (ie, dance the
gaillard athletically). I suspect in a cinematic context this would
require dance stunt doubles :-).

I'm not fully convinced that Elizabeth really knew what she was doing. For
example, she castigated the heads of the English fleet for not boarding the
Spanish Armada and engaging them hand-to-hand -- the only thing that could have
saved the Spaniards and a likely route to disaster for the
QE2 seems to be under a lot of duress, doesn't she?

Dear All,
I too watched the Helen Mirren / Jeremy Irons rendition of
the latter years of Elizabeth's reign (entitled 'Elizabeth 1' )
