This is a seminal comic masterpiece of our time, now published for the first time in Penguin. The monarchy has been dismantled. When a Republican party wins the General Election, their first act in power is to strip the royal family of their assets and titles and send them to live on a housing estate in the Midlands. Exchanging Buckingham Palace for a two-bedroomed semi in Hell Close (as the locals dub it), caviar for boiled eggs, servants for a social worker named Trish, the Queen and her family learn what it means to be poor among the great unwashed. But is their breeding sufficient to allow them to rise above their changed circumstance or deep down are they really just like everyone else?

Åh så besviken jag blev. Townsends roliga böcker trodde jag skulle fortsätta med den här men nix. Detta trots att idén är helt underbar och på den tiden var ganska unik. Nej, det hände helt enkelt inte något som fick mig att skratta såvärst och inget som var så där jätteelakt engelskt sarkastiskt heller utan allt hamnade i något slags anonymt mellanläge.
