‘I trod on one of her corgis but the Queen was magnificent about it’

Dame Sheila Hancock, 89, has lived her life almost in parallel to Queen Elizabeth II. She joined Emma Barnett on Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour to share her memories of Her Majesty, who she described earlier this year as a ‘reassuring presence’ throughout her life.

She told us about meeting the Queen during lunch at the palace and the monarch’s reaction when she accidentally stepped on one of her corgi dogs.

Listen to the full interview on Â鶹ԼÅÄ Sounds.
