The premise is that Queen Elizabeth and her nearest and dearest have been consigned to an exclusion zone in republican Britain, along with other work-shy, dissolute, and villainous spongers.

Given the title, it is no spoiler to say that Camilla does indeed become queen, with hierarchal ramifications – the different directions followed by Harry and William, for instance, are amusingly predictive of our current reality.

All the while, there are the dogs…
