In the teaser, we see the Queen inspecting a new portait of herself, side-by-side with her earlier likeness. When a minister tells her that it is “an elegant transition from young woman”, the she interjects “old bat” before anyone can say something else. He assures that there are only tiny changes between the two likenesses, but she says that there are a great many changes. “Nothing one can do about it. One just has to get on with it.”
