ON RADIO, CONFUSING MOMENTS IN:
King George VI and his wife Queen Elizabeth were making a trip across
Canada in 1939. Wherever they went, radio broadcasters followed their every move. In Winnipeg, the royal
couple was greeted by the Canadian Prime Minister, MacKenzie King. They were also greeted by the mayor
of Winnipeg and his wife--Mr. and Mrs. Queen. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation announcer had his
work cut out for him doing a coherent on-the-spot report: "Here comes the royal family now. The
automobile has now stopped, a member of the RCMP is opening the car door--oh, there's the King--he's
stepping out, followed by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, nattily attired in a silver coat. Mr. King is now
shaking hands with the King and introducing Mr. Queen to the King and Queen and then Mrs. Queen to the
Queen and King. They are now proceeding up the steps to the well-decorated City Hall, the King and Mr.
King together, with the Queen being escorted by Mrs. Queen. The King has now stopped and said something
to Mrs. Queen and goes to Mrs. Queen and the Queen and Mr. King and the Queen laughed jovially. The King
leaves Mr. King and goes to Mrs. Queen and the Queen and Mr. King follow behind...."

Sounds a bit like an Abbott and Costello routine. LOL
