If you don’t believe in God, there’s not much point in blasphemy. Similarly, now that the Windsors are not universally admired and respected and there's no risk of being sent to the Tower, lèse majesté has lost its savour. Lately the Queen’s acquisition of an iPod has inspired a great number of laboured suggestions – WePod, OnesPod, MyHusbandAndIPod and so on – but it fell to Private Eye to give us a picture of the dear old love with a speech balloon:
“It stores tunes and plays your favourite music wherever you go… it’s called the Grenadier Guards.”
