Angela, who has compared her working relationship with the Queen to "a marriage", wrote her latest book with the Queen's blessing. She adds: "From then on, I listened and tried my best to speak properly – even adding an aitch to words where it didn't exist – but in the end I gave up: it was just too much effort.
